A few nama-gaki oysters: Hokkaido (on the left) and Matoya (Mie; right)... a plate of lightly steamed eggplant, very unseasonal but a year-round favourite; and a bowl of nira-tamago (think of runny scrambled eggs with plenty of green onions)...
...a whole saba mackerel himono (love those R2D2 shoyu dispensers)...
...and a snifter or two of some nifty nihonshu. Starting (and ending too, it must be said) with the ever-ace Tamagawa...
The location: Shutoan, a simple basement with a modest menu and a truly remarkable selection of sake.
