NAKANO: Unjami Okinawan Restaurant for their 1,980 yen all you can drink menu with Orion Beer! (Sony RX100)

After going to Okinawa more than any other location in Japan its so comforting to listen to Okinawan music and drink my favorite Orion Beer.  This night we try Unjami.




No smoking! Even e-cigarettes!  Very nice. 

Tonights specials. 

The 2 hour all you can drink menu!  I went for a few Orion Beers, Awamori and whisky hi-balls.
The deal was you need to order 2 plates each to get in on this drink plan. 


Orion beer happy hour til 7pm. 

Huge oval counter seating area. 

Push button ordering system... super quick staff. 


Vast drink menu if you don`t go for the 1,980 yen deal... but looking at the prices if you can drink 3-4 then you are in the clear. 

Automatic appetizer called otoshi is mozuku. 


Of course Umi-Budou (ocean grapes)... unusually Okinawans don`t eat this and most is exported to mainland Japan. 

Mimigah... sliced pig ear in ponzu sauce. 


This is what I ordered... Hiraya-chi.  Basically sliced spam and egg with ketchup. 
Had this a few times in Okinawa...

Awamori!  

The tatami floor seating area was super spacious too.. just don`t wear any holy socks. 

My 2nd choice... Taco Rice is a hot metal bowl.  Lots of cheese. 



Overall I really liked the atmosphere at Unjyami and the super attentive staff.  When in Nakano and you are feeling like Okinawan gotta go!  I`ll surely be back.

KOENJI: Tachibin Okinawan Restaurant... Super friendly staff and great food! Main branch is in Naha, Okinawa.

The Chef from Okinawa!  Alot of the staff were from Hokkaido.

This is the most famous highly foodie ranked Okinawan restaurant in Tokyo and I had to go!

Okinawan style tofu I think... my friend ordered this.  



My counter view.

At 6:30 the second floor only had 1 other couple.. its was so quiet and non-smokey.  This lasted until 7:30 when the reserved tables filled up.


Of course Rafute! Okinawan braised pork belly... so super tender.



All the names of Okinawan fish.  


I love mozuku tempura... yum with the ponzu daikon dip.

Daily sashimi specials.


The glass for mix drinks were huge and only 422 yen.  Not too bad.




The staff was so cool and I will definitely be back again soon!  They were turning people away at 6:30 so definitely make a reservation or go early.  Think the walk in customers are seating on 1F.  Oh, there is no daily live music but if you want that definitely hit up Okinawa Paradise!
