Ningyocho

I visited to Ningyo-cho today. There are a lot of old shops and restaurant.

I bought some "Taiyaki", a Japanese waffle which shapes fish with red bean paste filling.

There are always a lot of people in a queue for the Taiyaki.

You can buy "Ningyoyaki" there as well.

I had some fried pork cutlet for lunch at Kiraku , an yoshoku reataurant.

"Yoshoku" is Western style food which is popular in Japan such as a pork cutlet, omerice (an omelette filled with fried rice), a pork saute, etc. Most of the dishes are served with rice.

Kiraku is one of my favourite restaurant in Ningyocho.

This is Kotobukido, a Japanese-style confectionery established in 1884.

There were a lot of shops which had been changed to new building but Kotobukido's building looked very old and they mantain a tradition.
