Hi, Ikenoya. Long time no see. What’s up ?
I had lunch at Ikenoya after a long long absence.
Long time has really passed since I visited there last.
My target was deep fried oysters. But to my sorrow, there wasn’t the name on the menus.
Instead of that I ordered sea urchin and leftover fresh on tuna’s spine. But to my great disappointed, it was already sold out.
I saw menus for a while and found saury thought it was already in winter.
Because I ate grilled saury with salt only one time this season, I ordered it. 780 yen.
As soon as I ordered, my lunch was served.
I had a bad feeling about this.
It seemed not hot. I like my grilled saury with salt very hot.
I need sound like a frying fat about my saury !
目当てのカキフライも、うになかおちもなく、久々の池のやで食べたのはさんま！
Grilled fish set have another one small food. We could choose one from karaage, stuffed cabbage and mentaiko bowl that day.
I like this shop’s minced cutlet, but they didn’t prepare it that day.
So, I ordered karaage. Three pieces of smaller size of karaage.
Though it was tasty, but it wasn’t hot, too.
一品選べるので唐揚げをチョイス。結構冷めてました…(;´･ω･)
It was by far from “very hot” all the same. Its meat was rather hot, but the skin was entirely cool.
さんまもアツアツではなく、塩焼きはアツアツでないと・・・品ぞろえといい、この出された料理の状態といい、満席にならない店内といい、どうしちゃったの池のや！
What happened to them ?
The number of staffs seemed to be lessen than ever.
Perhaps they don’t want to cook troublesome foods like deep fried foods. But I love their deep fried foods !
