For some reason, when I sleep somewhere other than my home during business trips or travel, I wake up super early.
Even if I go out drinking late into the night, I usually wake up at 5am.
However, even if I sleep at home, I wake up at 6am, so it's not that different.
At home, I go to bed at 10 p.m.…I go to bed early and get up early (lol)
The other day, I stayed at a hotel right next to the Tsukiji office.
As I wrote in my previous blog, I ate alone in Tsukishima.
When I got excited and wandered around the office,
There are standing bars and izakayas in the back alleys,
High-end sushi restaurants, Italian restaurants, etc.
Many shops were open, but they were full and I couldn't get in.
I got on the train to go to Ginza, but
When I thought about returning home, I found it too troublesome and decided to get off at Higashi Ginza (one stop).
Tsukiji at 5 a.m. on Sunday morning was filled with such strange excitement.
Even though Tsukiji Market has moved, the old-fashioned shops still remain outside the market.
Most are closed on Sundays.
But the ``solitary gourmet'' who was hungry from 5 a.m.
I want to eat breakfast and writhe in bed.
Anyway, I went to a rice bowl shop that was open from early morning.
The old ladies who are typical of the downtown area are working hard and shouting to cheer us up.
I didn't know what to order, but when I saw the "limited edition" I ordered something like "Makanai-don"...
No, it's delicious.
It's just that the photo and the real thing are completely different.
Well, maybe the old man has been half asleep since morning.
Either that or I was really lazy and forgot to add other ingredients, I think.
I don't get angry about things like that, so
Following Edo rules, eat quickly and leave the restaurant quickly.
As expected, there were no people in the early morning,
The nearly deserted area is a good time to visit Namiyoke Shrine, a shrine that brings back memories.
I once ate Osaka's okonomiyaki at a summer festival here.
I unexpectedly fell in love with Osaka's okonomiyaki,
Even my wife doesn't know that since then, okonomiyaki has definitely become an "Osaka" style.
Needless to say, Dote-yakiiri was seriously so delicious that I passed out in the Sumida River.
I briefly visited a shrine and took a walk around the neighborhood.
But we still have 3 hours until other shops open.
It takes about 4 hours to receive the keys.
So,
I suddenly got on the train and went to Ueno...
