Super tasty! The fish is incredibly fresh—you can tell it's just been caught. The sushi pieces are the perfect size, and there's not too much rice. Prices are mid-range but totally worth it, especially the Himi tuna and white shrimp—highly recommend! The place is clean and bright, with a relaxed vibe, and the chefs are really friendly. It's the kind of sushi spot you'll want to come back to. If you're in Takaoka, you have to try it! 🍣

Arakogawa Park
An urban park stretching along both banks of the Arakogawa River in Minato Ward, Nagoya. About 1,000 Somei Yoshino cherry trees line the riverside, and the park turns a soft pink each spring. The cherry-lined path runs for about 1 kilometer, drawing crowds for strolls and picnics. The annual Sakura Festival, held from late March to early April, features concerts, workshops, and food trucks timed to the cherry blossom season.
During cherry blossom season in spring, it really feels like sakura time. The whole riverside looks gorgeous in bloom, but it doesn’t get so crowded that it becomes annoying.
On regular days, there’s lots of greenery and the air feels nice—it's a great place to just sit and zone out.
The park is pretty spacious, so walking around doesn’t feel cramped. Perfect if you want some quiet time, or just stroll and chat. -
Meiji no Mori Minoh Quasi-National Park
A vast nature park located in a low mountain area at elevations of 100-600 m, covering an expansive Approx. 963 hectares. Loved by many visitors as a “treasure trove of nature,” it’s home to a diverse ecosystem including over 1,100 plant species, over 3,000 insect species, as well as wild birds and mammals. The park’s symbol, Minoh Falls, is a dynamic, famous waterfall with a 33 m drop and has been selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 Waterfalls.
So beautiful!
It feels like it’s not far from the city, but once you step in, you’re instantly wrapped in nature. The air is crazy fresh.
In fall, the maple leaves are absolutely stunning—those red-and-orange mountain views are super photogenic!
While you’re on the trail, you can hear the waterfall too. Minoh Falls is famous for a reason—seeing it in person is even more impressive than the photos.
It’s a bit of a walk, but there are little shops along the way for snacks and drinks, so it doesn’t feel too tiring.
Highly recommend for anyone who loves nature or just wants to unwind. -
Date-Style Irori Grill Kuranosho Main Branch
Just a 3-minute walk from Sendai Station in Miyagi Prefecture, Kuranosho Main Branch is a long-established izakaya founded in 1987. As a gateway to Sendai, it’s loved not only by locals but also by travelers and business visitors. The house specialty is irori-yaki, grilled over a large irori hearth. An irori is a traditional Japanese heating fixture, a sunken hearth fueled by firewood or charcoal.
The vibe at the main branch is super nostalgic. Sitting by the irori and grilling fish and meat is such a cool experience. The ingredients are fresh and authentic, and the slow charcoal-grilled aroma is seriously irresistible.
The interior is full of traditional charm—totally worth trying! Highly recommend!
