さあ、始まりました！
「土曜日は路麵の日」
日暮里駅で乗り換えです。
Hi there, how are you doing?
I did Romen activity yesterday because "Saturdays are Romen Days". I changed a train from JR Line to Keisei Line, at Nippori station.
京成関屋駅で降ります。
I got off Keisei-Sekiya station.
って降りたすぐに見えてるじゃん！（笑）
Just after getting off the station, I found the destination on this day.
雑賀屋さんです。
This is Saigaya, I got to know the Romen house from the article written by Sakazaki-san. Saigaya stands out by the location and the advertisement.
店内にテレビがあるんですが、ここの取材ビデオを延々流してました（笑） オリンピック中継ちゃうんかい！
There was a television but the TV always shows the interview movie of this Saigaya that recorded. There were many pictures of celebrities who visited here.
雑賀屋さんは太麺の鶏天そばが推しなんですが、普通のかき揚げそばを注文しました。キレイ目のお顔ですね。
The Saigaya's recommendation was 5 mm thick soba noodles but I ordered kakiage soba noodles with ordinary 1.3 mm thin soba noodles. Looks beautiful.
生麺都度茹で、天ぷら揚げたてです。
やっぱり都度茹で揚げたては違いますね。
美味しかったです！ごちそうさまでした。
The soba noodles were freshly boiled from raw soba noodles. And kakiage tempura was also freshly fried. I don't have a good sense of taste but I felt that the soup was made by a soup product. The soup was not sweet but felt sweet, kind of chemical flavor.
さあ、ろか散歩ですよ♪
I started Roka Sampo.
隅田川と河川敷です。やっぱり釣り好きなんで川が好きですね。
この千住エリア、高層マンションがたくさんあります。人気のエリアなんですね。
Sumida river and a small park of aside of river was sophisticated. I always stop by a river, a pond, and a lake because I was an angler.
By the way, there are a lot of high-rise apartments in this area, it seems that this area has been popular residential area.
投げ釣り禁止って、このロケーションで投げ釣り以外の釣りは成立しないでしょ．．．
There was a notification from an official administrator of this river about prohibition for fishing using a rod and a reel because of danger of hooks. I understand a danger of hooks. However, I have no idea that there is other fishing style not using a rod and a reel at this river.
木漏れ日の下をテクテク歩きます。木漏れ日って音が美しいですよね。大好きな言葉です。
I walked through a road under Komorebi. Komorebi sounds like beautiful, doesn't it? Komorebi means a peaceful sun light through trees and leaves.
千住大橋です。
This is a Senju Ohashi.
ここって奥の細道の出発点だったようですね。
東京から岐阜まで150日間かけて歩くってどんなかんじなんでしょうね。
I believe you know Akunohosomichi, a trip diary long time ago. Matsuo Basho who was a famous Haiku artist had a long travel from Tokyo to Gifu by foot 300 years ago. He published its travel dirary named Okunohosomichi. Everyone learn this Okunohosomichi in schools, so everyone know it. The point of departure was this place Senju. It seems that the long travel took over 150 days. I can't imagine how hard it was.
千住大橋まで歩きました。二郎があるんですね。
I arrived Senju-Ohashi station. There was a Jiro ramen in front of Senju-Ohashi station but it was closed, it is closed every Saturday.
見て下さい、このお弁当。これで320円ですよΣ(ﾟДﾟ) 安すぎ。
思い出してみると、数年前にマレーシアに出張に行ったときに、都市部ではお弁当が200～300円くらいで売ってたんですよね。やっぱり日本のデフレって深刻です。
Please look at this lunch box. A discount grocery in front of Senju-Ohashi station was selling a cheap lunch box for 320 yen including tax. It is too cheap, isn't it? I remember that I saw lunch boxes for as around 300 JPY in KL Malaysia when I have been to there several years ago. An economic deflation in Japan is really serious, right?
良い週末をお過ごしください。
