"IZAKAYA"Franchised Japanese Styled Bar 2005.3.15 |
I like to introduce Japanese styled Bar called "Izakaya" which serve many types of foods and drinks. We as Japanese have a custom of eating while drinking. When we plan to go for drinks, we normally go to bars to not only drink alcohol but also to enjoy many types of foods while drinking so "Izakaya" is a very common place for us to go for drinks.
There are two types of Izakaya in Japan. One is owned private by owners and the other is franchised. I would like to introduce franchised one this time since they have more reasonable prices comparing to the ones with private owner.
