Chicken Dinner Near Shinagawa Station
Upon retunring from Kamakura, it was time for dinner, but we were pretty tired. Wanting to avoid eating st the hotel, we investigated the options near the train station. Thanks to the Internet, we found the layout of the Takanawa West complex of stores and restaurants, and wandered around. Wanting to stick to Japanese offerings we ignored the chains and the ubuquitous McDonalds (500 yen for a Big Mac meal).
We found a place off to the side that was all Japanese, but did have the plastic models of the food offered. Just a few people waiting, so we got in the queue of seats waiting for a table. It was a cramped place, no sign of English anywhere, so we hoped for the best. Worst thing, we could simply point to one of the plastic food models, or pictures on the menu.
Fortunately, there was an English menu offered, and it turned out this place only serve various chicken and vegetable offerings. We got gyozas, grilled peppers and chicken, cabbage salad with a fermented plum dressing, edamames, and fried chicken thighs. And of course, more sake!
Service was great, but smoking was permitted inside. Still, it did not bother us, as the ventillation was good. We were happy with our meal.
Then back to the hotel.
