Today I went on a standing bar tour in Ikebukuro, and this was the last stop at the 4th place! I requested to sit down here, but it's called "6th Grade Class 4" even though I was in 6th Grade Class 1 back in elementary school!! I wanted to eat the fried bread and soft noodles from the school lunch, and the inside of the restaurant is nostalgic with school bags, desks, and chairs. They offer all-you-can-eat snacks like nostalgic candies, Kinpira candy, and cup yogurt for a cover charge of 540 yen per person. We ordered a Highball for 410 yen, an adult milkshake for 540 yen, and made a toast! We also ordered Soft Noodle Meat for 432 yen, Soft Noodle Curry for 518 yen, Tomato Slice for 410 yen, Ham Cutlet for 518 yen, Croquette for 324 yen, Fried Bread for 324 yen, Salted Cucumber for 410 yen, Corn Butter for 432 yen, Quail Egg for 345 yen. The atmosphere is like an izakaya, and the menu is comforting. We also ordered Curry for 410 yen, Red Wine for 410 yen, Green Tea Highball for 432 yen, and finished with a Breast Ice Cream for 302 yen. The total bill came out to around 12,500 yen. The restaurant is full of elementary school vibes, and the staff won't come to you unless you call them, giving a sense of being left alone. It's fine for this type of place though. We had a lively conversation about our elementary school lunch memories, took a commemorative photo with our school bags, and reminisced about the good times. The environment back then was different from today, with some teasing but nothing extreme like murder or serious injuries, and there were no shut-ins. It was a peaceful and good time to grow up in, and I think about how lucky I was to have experienced that. I still meet up with my friends regularly and have a drink, and today was one of those times. It was a fun and enjoyable moment at a place I've always wanted to visit.
