伍味酉さんで一杯 : Gomi Tori

January 2023 Ise Shrine Pilgrimage and Nagoya Tour ⑧ Day 3 After eating Ramen at [a:23041272, Ramen Shop Tsushima Main Branch], we took a drive around the area and checked in early at [a:23083896, Accommodation for the night]. In the evening, we took the train to Sakae and watched a certain Team E performance at Sunshine Sakae in the evening. Due to the influence of COVID-19, it was the first theater performance of my favorite member's birthday celebration since 2020, so I was happy. Since it was a birthday celebration, it ended a little late, around 9pm. So, let's go to Nishiki for a drink by ourselves. I decided to go to Gomidori Nishiki Branch after walking around Nishiki-san during the day. It is a Nagoya Cochin specialty store, has a counter and is OK for single people, and I chose it because it met all the conditions such as being able to use the nationwide travel support coupon I received at the hotel. The location is along Honjumachi-dori, which is lively even at night, and is a convenient location just a 2-minute walk from the nearest subway exit 1 of Sakae Station. There is no parking lot for cars. We arrived at around 9:15pm on a weekday Monday. The exterior looks like a Local Cuisine Izakaya (Japanese-style bar) with a showcase that uses a lot of wood that looks a little old. The interior of the restaurant also uses a lot of wood in the style of an old house. It is wide at the back, with a large table for groups in the center, table seats near the entrance, and counter seats with only two seats in the back. The waiters are the manager and one woman. There is only one group at a table seat, and we are guided to a counter seat just as a large group of customers has just left. The menu has a wide variety of Nagoya Cochin dishes, Nagoya rice dishes, single dishes, and meals. There are also many types of alcohol, including shochu and sake, so it's hard to choose. First, we ordered a Nagoya Cochin set that allows you to enjoy various types of Cochin, miso cabbage, and miso kushikatsu with Nagoya rice. The beer is Premium Malts. It comes with edamame as an appetizer. The miso cabbage is unique, with a sweet miso similar to that of Nagoya's Hatcho miso. The miso kushikatsu also goes well with the freshly fried kushikatsu, and the sweet miso goes well with it. Next, the set includes three Grilled skewer: tsukune, negima, and skin. The light salt seasoning allows you to enjoy the taste of the Cochin very well. The tsukune has a fluffy texture, while the negima has a very firm bite. The salt-grilled chicken dish and chicken wing tips have a crispy exterior, and compared to regular chicken, they are muscular and chewy, and when you chew them, they are overflowing with flavor, giving them a unique taste. I still have some more to go, so I added Aichi's local sake Wakamizu and fried Nagoya Cochin chicken dish. Wakamizu has a slightly sweet taste and is easy to drink. The fried chicken dish have a crisp exterior and are firm, and are juicier than salt-grilled chicken wings. They are delicious with a sweet and spicy seasoning. The shop closed at 10pm that day, so I ended up alone at the end, but the manager explained things to me about sightseeing in Nagoya, which was very helpful and I had a great time. Thank you. After this, I took the train to Kasadera Station and returned to my accommodation for the night. (Continued in [a:23083896, Nagoya Kasadera Hotel])
