我們最喜歡的日式餐廳在更靠近市中心的地點開了新的分店，空間更加寬敞，座位數也多了不少，可以更舒服地用餐與聊天。幾年前第一次造訪的時候我點了烤牛肉丼，當時就非常喜歡牛肉的質地與和生菜、醬汁的搭配，唯有芥末籽的味道對我來說有點太強烈，於是後來幾次造訪都點了不一樣的餐點。這次又點了烤牛肉丼，發現黃芥末替換成了山葵，真是讓人愉悅的驚喜我超級喜歡！

澆淋著醬汁流過滑順的溫泉蛋、入味但清爽的牛肉、溫和清脆的洋蔥和微苦的生菜，滲透至一粒粒飽滿溫熱的米粒，隱隱約約的山葵辛辣正中我心，感覺整個人都輕盈了起來，齒頰留香回味無窮。飲料也是適合夏日的涼爽風格，一點點的羅勒增添了層次和韻味。最後以一小杯冰綠茶作為這頓輕鬆、清爽的夏日午餐完美收尾。

Poured from above, the sauce went through a smooth onsen tamago, marinated roast beef, mild onion slices, slightly bitter lettuce, and plump grains of rice. With a hint of wasabi, the Roasted beef Bowl just hit the spot. It made me feel so light and keep thinking about it. The drink was refreshing and the basil really added layers into it. At the end of the meal, we had a small cup of iced green tea, which was perfect way to wrap up this light summer lunch.

再訪這家只有六個座位的日式料理小店，點了夏日菜單沾麵，醬汁裡有檸檬真的好清爽。最後還點了抹茶冰淇淋，上面撒滿了抹茶粉，又苦又甜好濃郁好好吃。

Revisited this small Japanese place with only 6 seats. The tsuke-men I ordered was from their summer menu. It‘s was really refreshing and summery! For desserts we had matcha ice cream. There was matcha powder on top, creating a really nice balance of bitter and sweet flavours, so rich, so good!
