Tokyo Flashbacks : Okinawa Restaurant somewhere in Tokyo / 東京フラッシュバック：東京のどっかの沖縄料理店

Unfortunately, it seems I didn't take a picture of the restaurant's name so I can't remember if this was the Okinawan place in Sangenjaya on Chazawa Street or if it was the restaurant near Route 246. Anyway, my wife and I were here with some friends.

残念ながら店の看板の写真を撮り忘れ、どこの沖縄料理店か覚えてない。三軒茶屋の茶沢通りか２４６沿いにあった店だったかな。とりあえず、友達と一緒ここでお食事したは事実だ。

Craft beer from Okinawa - Orion beer.

沖縄の地ビール、オリオンビール。

It looks like eggplants to me.

ナスにしあ見えない。

A very popular Okinawan dish is called umibudo which translates to "sea grapes". It is a type of algae called caulerpa lentillifera (yeah, I had to look that up!).

沖縄で人気の食べ物がこの海ぶどうです。

Is that a waffle? No, it is not. It looks like okonomiyaki to me.

ワッフルなんですか？いえ、多分お好み焼きと思いますよ。

I can't even remember some of the dishes we ordered.

注文したもの全ては覚えてない。

But this was Okinawa soba or it might have been Soki soba.

でもこれは沖縄そばだったかな。もしくはソーキそばかも。

One of my favorite dishes - stewed pork belly.

僕が大好きな一品、角煮。沖縄ならラルテーという。

Dang, how much food did we order?

あれ？料理はどのくらい注文したのかな？

Hm, an Okinawa restaurant serving Korean style pancakes on their menu.

沖縄料理店なのに、韓国のちぢみがメニューに載ってる。

Looks like me had some bread too.

パンも注文したみたいね。

Sausages! I must have ordered those!

ソーセージだ！俺が注文したものかも知りません！

And a glass of shikuwasa sour to wash all that food down with.

そして、沖縄と言えば、シークワーサーサワーだ！

Bon Appetit!

いただきます！
