昔懐かしナポリタン、900円。カキフライ(3個)、600円。
Old fashioned “Spaghetti Naporitan”. Ingredients are bacon, ham, onion, bell pepper, mushroom. Sauce is tomato ketchup. I seldom order this even though every yoshoku place has it on the menu. But it is quite nice once in a while~. Fried oysters are very good too.

This Italian gelato shop’s homepage looks very promising with so many different flavours, but when I visited there were only 5 flavours: coconut, cafe latte, matcha, cream, royal milk tea. None really exciting. I had royal milk tea and cafe latte in a cup, 300yen. Both are too watery…bad timing?

ポルシチ+ライス+ピロシキセット、1260円。
Lunch at a Russian restaurant run by two ladies. Lunch set includes Borstch, rice and Piroshki. Borstch has beetroot, tomato, potato, cabbage, carrot, and chunks of very soft cow tongue in it, topped with sour cream. A bit light tasting to my liking, though the cow tongue is very soft. The piroshki has minced meat, onions and vermicelli, just fried and very good. For piroshki, you can choose red bean or pumpkin instead of minced meat.

紀庵 (Kian)
天せいろの合い盛り(うどんとそば)、1425円。
Half udon half soba, with tempura. Usually tempura soba or udon is quite expensive but this place is cheap, yet the quaity is high. Both the soba and udon have very strong texture, a lot of chewing needed but I love that. The tempura is nice too. I waited for about 20 minutes, but it is written on the menu that everything is made fresh upon order so it will take a while. You can choose strong or light tsuyu(the soy sauce you dip the soba and udon into), and I chose the strong one and it turned out a bit too strong for me, the light one would have been better. I like this place though!
