OIZUMIGAKUEN: Harutaya Izakaya for their tasty Kimchee Tomato! Waitresses are always pretty here. (Lumix LX5)

Dinner in Oizumigakuen!  There a few other great options like Torikizoku or Akkeshi but this place has the most pretty waitresses... I`m there!

Always prefer bottled beer vs draft. 

Cabbage with miso and mayo dip is always great.  But the fried fish skewer with tarter sauce is a must! Kinda reminded me of the filet o fish burger at McDonald's.

Tsukune with egg yolk dip!  It was as round as a tennis ball!

Kimchee Tomato!  Unusally spicy this night... yum!

Most of the night we had Hoppy and refills of sake.  But unusually Tanaka Manager came over to ask if I needed a refill. My chance!  I said could you give me a little extra sake?  BOOM it was like double the usual portion.  Super friendly manager. 

Friend said those guys on the right are yakuza...

Great restaurant, attentive pretty uni student waitresses, food is always good and its a nice cozy place to drink.  When in Oizumigakuen you gotta go!!
