SHIINAMACHI: Shimonya has massive Mega Hi-balls... 600 yen! Plus juicy tsukune and some weird stuff. (Sony RX100)

 

When in Tokyo and you are not too sure what Izakaya to wander into then you can venture into trusty Shimonya Izakaya. 


Draft beer 550 yen, medium bottle beer 500 yen.

Lots of interesting fresh meat including horse and innards.


600 yen mega whisky hi-ball!  

Sign says 600 yen hiballs are limited to Shiinamachi branch.

Kanpai!

Perfect view of the chef.

Gotta pass on the Horse Sashimi! 

120 yen Cabbage Miso Mayo! 


Pickled raddish and something freaky in kimchee sauce... friend never let me know what it was.

Chef preparing the Tsukune... chicken meatball on a stick.

The tsukune is made fresh!  Fresh minced chicken on a stick. 

Huge bottle of Nikka Whisky for the hi-balls.




Now someone ordered this.


Yeah... this was a definite pass for me.

Another Hi-Ball! 

L shaped counter seating all long the kitchen.


The damage for a bunch of 600 yen Mega-Hiballs and a few dishes 5000 yen for two.  Overall the chef was super friendly and the staff very attentive.  If in Shiinamachi (just 1 stop from Ikebukuro) give Shimonya a try!  This restaurant had one of the best layouts compared to other branches... most are rather small.
