Niigata fish and Niigata sake at Ajinofei Honten, owned by Yoshiike in Okachimachi!
I saw Niigata Sadogashima's Kintsuru on the menu, so I ordered it, but instead of the Kintsuru label, it was Junmai-shu Kazeyawaka from the same Kato Shuzo Brewery.
Unlike typical Niigata sake, Sadogashima's sake is light and dry, with umami and rice sweetness rather than a refreshing taste.
You also ordered Koshinoshiratori with it...
If the snack is Tochio-Age, the best sake is Tochio's Koshino-Kagetora (or Koshinotsuru)
Tochio Age is a great snack as it is, but it is even better with miso and cheese.
It is indeed dry as it is called "super dry", but it is also delicious and smooth.
It's the best of both worlds.
We got off at Okachimachi from Shinbashi and went to Aji no Fue.
It's a standing bar under the direct management of Yoshiike, a supermarket in Okachimachi with a strong Niigata flavor, and I like it.
It has been a long time.
You buy snacks and Niigata sake first like a food court, and pay cash. Then, you move to each standing drinking space and enjoy.
The flower of the sakeharu.
It's good. It may be one of the best ordinary sake.
In my hometown of Murakami, this ordinary sake, Hana, is a standard evening drink.
I once went to Murakami and drank a heated bottle of Hana at a famous restaurant called Chidori, and it was delicious.
The seafood is good, too, as it is directly managed by Yoshiike.
We had dried squid from Rausu overnight.
Good evening, Mr. Hiracucho. Moving on, second meeting? Third party? I envy you. I haven't been to Ajino Fue for a long time, I want to go, but is it too early? I want to go there, but is it too early?
Good evening, Mr. Hiratcho.
Chidori in Murakami is a wonderful restaurant. I stopped there on my way back from Awashima. They have a good selection of Jizuhari Tsuru and Daiyomori, and I drank only Daiyomori this time.
