Liver rest day
Nov. 18
Today, I went to Koriyama.
At the York Benimaru headquarters, I held a regular monthly wine seminar.
Today’s theme is “New World and Japan Wine”.
Since it was a wide-ranging story, I ran through it in the limited time of 3 hours at once.
The tasting is a comparative tasting of Chardonnay from South Africa, Australia, Chile, and Japan.
This is also the sixth seminar. The tasting of the participants went well.
Everyone and I did our best.
On the day after tomorrow, when Beaujolais Nouveau is lifted.
We have entered the peak of wine sales. Let’s do our best.
After the course, I got off at Utsunomiya today.
It’s a year-end party with an old friend.
The venue was “Sakemori Kanbei”, which was a hit in a Tabelog search for “izakaya in front of the station where you can bring wine”.
This resturant is a big hit.
All the dishes were very delicious.
Raw oysters are served as a starter.
The sashimi platter is extremely fresh.
The tempura and crispy texture are the best.
It was a number of dishes that exceed the level of izakayas.
From the restaurant’s wine list, I chose Aruga Blanca Clareza.
The wine I brought in was Chase the Grape.
The carry-on fee of 1,500 yen is reasonable.
I’m also happy with a nice burgundy glass.
Chase the Grape’s chill red was a perfect match for tempura.
The delicious foods and delicious wine greatly exceeded our expectations, and we had a great time.
Thank you very much for a wonderful time.
So, I did it again at the end.
On the way back, it seems that he was sleeping while standing on the Odakyu Line express from Shinjuku.
When I woke up at Noborito Station and jumped out of the closing door to change to local train, and realized, “Hey, I don’t have a bag!”
The door closed, and my bag, which had lost its owner, left with the express train.
I was at a loss, and the bag had an important my computer.
I asked the station staff to search for my bag, but near the last train, there was no staff at any station who could handle forgotten items.
I waited for 30 minutes for the express train to arrive at the final station, Karakida, at the station on the way.
I received information from the office at Karakida Station that a kind passenger was delivering my bag.
Oh, that’s good. It was really good.
I made it in time for the last train to Karakida, and reunited with my bag with tears at the station.
The return train was over, so I took a taxi home.
It was a long, long day. But I’m really glad that my bag is back.
