Attracting building having picture of sardines.
As for sardines, I remember grilled whole dried sardines above all. Sashimi, and oiled sardines in bottles. That’s all. I didn’t know another way of cooking.
There is an izakaya that specializes in sardines dishes in Chiba.
This wall create an atmosphere of port town 🙂

Appetizer and my drink.
お通しと飲み物。
Sardines yukkhoe (いわしのユッケ, 580 yen)
Sardine version of yukkhoe, Korean cuisine.
Its sardines didn’t have much fat, so it was just good with sesami oil and yolk of quail’s egg.
あっさりめのイワシなのでたれでコクが出てちょうど良い感じになりました。
Sardines namerou (いわしのなめろう, 580 yen). Minced sardines.With plum vinegar and ginger.
なめろうは梅酢で。
Raw seaweed yakko (生のりやっこ, 580 yen). This was the first time to eat “raw” seaweed. I can’t forget its texture.
生のりって初めて食べました。この食感、忘れられないかも。
Deep fried sardine (Sardine croquette, いわしコロッケ, 780 yen)
Curry flavored potatos in it. Truthfully speaking, it was heavy for me. Potatos…
My stomach felt bloated with the potatos 😛
おなかにじゃがいもが詰まってます。私のおなかも膨れた･･･(ﾉ∀`)
Deep fried asari clam.(Asari clam fry, あさりのフライ, 680 yen)
This izakaya don’t serve only sardines dishes. And those were good, too.
いわしだけじゃなくてアサリなど、ほかの食材もありますよ。このあさりフライおいしい。
Chlorophthalmus borealis karaage (Deep fried chlorophthalmus borealis, メヒカリの唐揚げ, 630 yen)
目光もおいしい。
Deep fried oyster (Oyster fry, カキフライ, 630 yen)

Sardine mentai (いわし明太, 680 yen) (680 yen). Roasting sardins with mentaiko. I am no enemy to mentaiko 😀
明太子ラブ。いわし明太ラブ。(*´Д｀)
Beef tendon with ponzu (牛すじぽん酢, 700 yen). Well, this they should serve only seafoods dishes… it was not good at all.
牛すじはいまいち。このお店は、海の幸だけ出したほうがよさそう(ﾉ∀`)
Minced sardines balls soup (いわしのつみれ, 580 yen)
Minced juicy sardines in wakame seaweed soup.
しめはつみれで。
