I went to Snack Aki-san! It was my first visit. It's clearly a snack bar, but there are signs outside advertising meals and a sign saying they are open. I mustered up the courage and went in. It's definitely a daytime snack bar. It's a little before noon, but there are people drinking. There are groups of four, two elderly ladies, and two middle-aged women. It's crowded. I asked if they serve food, and they do. There is a daily menu with sashimi set, fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, curry, and udon available. I decided to have the udon, even though the price wasn't listed. They don't have karaoke, but there are loud enka and kayokyoku songs playing. While waiting, I noticed the elderly ladies next to me were having non-alcoholic beer. The middle-aged women across from me were drinking beer. They brought me water and shrimp chips as a charm. The udon arrived, and they asked if I wanted rice too. I declined. The udon was soft and the broth was light but tasty. It had shiitake mushrooms, chicken, and green onions on top. It tasted similar to homemade udon. I was about to leave when they offered me a complimentary drink - cola, Calpis, or oolong tea. I chose oolong tea. The bill came to 800 yen. I thought it was a bit pricey. If it was 700 yen, I would have felt better about it. I ate everything, including the rice they gave me. Overall, it was an interesting experience at Snack Aki-san.
