    平日23時到着。 久しぶりの訪問でしたが、相変わらず賑わってました。 日本酒と漬物小を頼み、定番のカレーそばを注文しようとしたら何と♪カレー中華始めました♪とあり迷わずカレー中華を注文。 カレーそばのそばが 麺の麺に変えたものだそうです。 カレーそばもいいですが麺量も多くカレーに良く絡み美味しかったです。 PayPayでお支払い。 やはりここは〆に最高です!

    秋田県内に宿泊する際はかなりの頻度でゆぽぽに宿泊して、ばっきゃにて食事をしています。 地ビール1時間飲み放題はかなりお得だと思います。提供も早いし、地ビールの質を考えるとペースが早ければ簡単に元が取れるかと(^^) おつまみ系のメニューも食事も美味しいです。 ただ、今はコロナの影響?なのか生もの系のメニューが提供されていなかったり、土曜の定番の劇団のライブが中止になっているのが残念です。

    旅行中日曜日のランチに予約して訪問。 お店は新しく、広々して明るくオシャレな雰囲気。 1500円のパスタランチにも惹かれましたが、2000円のランチセットをお魚を選んでいただきました。 写真撮り忘れたけれど前菜、スープ、パン、デザートもついてこのお値段はお値打ちです。 鯛の皮はパリパリで、素人にはこうはできないんですよね。 秋田の美味しいお野菜がも堪能できました。 おススメです。

    シュークリームが有名ですが、調理パンや菓子パンが目当てでよく来店してます。イートインスペースもありますが、持ち帰ったパンをオーブントースターで軽く温めるとバターの香りがして美味しく、良い材料を使っていると思います。カレーパンが一番好きです。

    角館の武家屋敷群、青柳家を出た向かい側にあったので入ってみました。 閉店間際でしたので店内は閑散としていましたがその分お店の方とお話ししながら買い物をすることができました。少し試食をさせていただきながら生もろこしを食べ比べ。餡入りもおいしかったですが私はプレーンの生もろこしが好みでした。

    Minoko offers Oga's traditional fisherman's cuisine Ishiyaki stone cooked. They are particularly popular for their extravagant wild sea bream dishes. The unique Minoko style is to try their dishes topped with fragrant sansho Japanese pepper. They close when the food runs out!

    男鹿半島の突端、入道崎付近にあるお店に訪問。緊急事態宣言緩和のおかげなのか少しずつ観光客が戻っている印象です。 いつの間にか少し値上がりしていましたがいつもよりボリュームはあったかなという感じがしました。 熱々の石焼きにはたくさんの鯛の身が入っていましたしお刺身の厚みもありました。 わかめも美味しいんですよね。
