茨城に住んでいた時に、勝田の国道4号線にあった寅さんラーメンで野菜餡掛けのスタミナ焼きそばを食べるのが好きでした。久しぶりに水戸方面へ行った時に行ってみたかったのですが、閉店したとのことで、元々寅さんラーメンでスタミナ餡掛けを考案した人が開いたという、スタミナラーメンの総本家へ行ってみました。昼過ぎに到着したのですが、店の外に列ができていて、食べ終わるまでに1時間ほどかかりました。スタミナラーメン...

水戸市ではあんこう鍋のお店がたくさん並んでいます。一度試せばいいと思ってここにしました。食べ方がよくわからなかったが、スタッフが変わりにやってくれるので、大丈夫です。アン肝が塊のまま食べれると期待していましたが、形のないものですぐに溶けてしまいました。ちょっと残念。旅の思い出として食べてもいいですが、一度で十分という考え方もあります。安くはないよ。

The cafe also has a shop area where you can buy ceramics and coffee beans."

広くて明るくて湖に面しているカフェ。ハンバーグステーキを注文しました。味が良かったが、野菜とご飯が少なくてちょっとお腹が空いたままここを去りました。出さた飲み水はなぜかトイレのような匂いでした。別に用意された果物のスライス入りの水をもらったら、大丈夫でした。天気さえよければ、もっと周りの景色を楽しめたはずです。満腹になれなかったのは残念なので、評価を一点下げました。

Ibaraki Pref. Mitoshi Jounan 1-5-16 second Kiyozumi building 1F

A stylish, hideaway-style Japanese izakaya pub located a short walk from the south exit of JR Mito Station.

Dedicated to local production for local consumption, the pub offers dishes made with fish, meat, and vegetables from Ibaraki Prefecture like seared fatty Hitachi beef sashimi, fried natto (karaage), and sashimi assortments. The pub's melon cream sodas, limited to just five customers a day and served in a whole Ibaraki-grown muskmelon, are particularly eye-catching.

エントランスからのお店の雰囲気が良くて、期待感が高まります。茨城の食材とお酒に拘り、料理も居酒屋レベルではない手の込んだものが多く、満足しました。お酒を飲まない子供（成人）も「美味しい」と喜んでいました。接客はバイトらしい男の子は頼りなかったのですが、その他の方は感じが良く気持ちよく酔えました。ただ、料理によっては供されるまで時間が結構掛かる物もあったので、星を一つ減らしました。

Ibaraki Pref. Mitoshi Migawa 3-720-1

"A soba restaurant located a five-minute drive from Kairakuen Park's Kobun Bridge. Due to the presence of Mt. Yamizo and the Abukuma Highlands, the local area is one of the most fertile farming regions in northern Ibaraki Prefecture. The Naka River and Kuji River running through the area are also rich in minerals. Accordingly, the flavor, fragrance, and texture of the Hitachi Aki buckwheat grown in the area is exceptional. The father and son who run this restaurant make use of this prized buckwheat to make their noodles, alongside other ingredients grown in Mito and Ibaraki Prefecture as well as their polished skills. Particularly recommended are the ""Inaka Zarusoba"" cold noodles which present the simple flavor of the buckwheat used, and the ""Tokusei Mito Ume Curry Soba"" noodles made with Mito-grown turmeric."
