I visited a creative kushikatsu restaurant in Taisho! ✨

The restaurant is called "Sozai Washoku Kushikatsu Ichimasa," and it's just a short walk from Taisho Station. 🚃

It's located inside a building, with only a counter, creating a calm and relaxed atmosphere. ✨

When I arrived, vegetables and condiments were prepared for us. ✨

• Snow salt
  The “Nuchimaasu” from Miyako Island in Okinawa, certified by Guinness for its high mineral content.
• Soy milk mayo dip
  A blend of top-quality cottonseed oil with zero cholesterol, "soy milk," and "white miso."
• Sauce
• Ponzu
• Dashi soy sauce
  A specially blended original sauce that goes well with the kushikatsu at Ichimasa.
  I was delighted to see such detailed descriptions! ✨

For drinks, I chose the seasonal frozen fruit soda 🍓 for 600 yen.
When I visited, it was strawberry. 🍓
It was filled with plenty of strawberries, sweet and delicious! 🍓
