The highlight of this restaurant is definitely the awamori from the faucet! It was my first time trying Okinawan cuisine. I heard rumors that it doesn't suit locals, but when I finally tried it, it was during the third round, and with beer included it would have cost 2000 yen, so I went for the 1000 yen all-you-can-drink option! They had a handle on the faucet, which was quite amusing. The dishes included Soki soba, pork and eggs, simmered cartilage Soki, sea grapes, and the appetizer was a soup with island tofu and turmeric. During the third round, everyone tried to stop me saying it won't have any effect anymore, but I'm shameless so I drank the turmeric. Soki is a common term, but what is it exactly? I looked it up. Oh, it's pork spare ribs. Delicious... It's a mix of chewy and tender! And the broth? It's soaked in and delicious. I really wanted to try Soki soba. In my concept of soba, it's more like udon, but oh, it's delicious! And there's Okinawan chili pepper, called Koregusu. I love spicy food, so I added it of course. As a local, it's a mysterious object, so I added a little cautiously. Not too spicy! But so delicious! I added a bit more. So delicious! But not too spicy. It seems the spiciness varies depending on the ratio when making it. Sea grapes were also a first for me, with a nice firm texture. The pork was a bit salty for my taste, but overall, I really enjoyed my first taste of Okinawan cuisine. Thanks to that, I'm now very interested in Okinawan cuisine. I do wonder about the cost performance, but I would recommend it to those who want to enjoy Okinawan cuisine. Thank you for the meal! Kwachii Sabitan (´∀`*) Is that Okinawan dialect? haha
