I used to come here for lunches but they only open in the evenings which is a pity.
There is a really good deal just like their lunches but it starts at 10pm.

There is an all you can drink session until 3am which includes 3 sides or you can choose the late dinner which comes with Japanese rice, soup and three sides.

Premium mentaiko:

The salty mentaiko is delicious with rice, but they give you some on your rice anyway.

Mentaiko and soymilk croquette:

The croquette was filled with silky smooth potato and mentaiko filling which gave it a salty flavour.

Mentai Japanese sauce Inaiwa udon:
 0 讚好

I am not really a fan of chewy udon so this just tasted ok to me.
+++++++++++++
Tender Mentai Dashi egg roll:
 0 讚好

Anyone who likes egg will love this tender egg roll filled with delicious mentaiko but I found the egg slightly sweet.
+++++++++++++
For my second bowl of rice, they gave me Mentaiko and seaweed flakes to season the rice which made it tasty.

They had shochu in interesting flavours such as barley, sesame and sweet potato.
My friend got the shochu which turned out clear like water but there was no sweet potato taste and the alcohol taste was very strong.

I had the oolong tea which was non alcoholic.

I got the Mentaiko and sugar pretzels which are sweet and spicy with a mentaiko aftertaste but they don't look like pretzels to me.
