Shinjuku Nakamuraya is a famous Western food and Indian curry restaurant with a long history and tradition that has been walking alongside the city of Shinjuku since its establishment in 1901. Its roots lie in bakery and Japanese sweets, and it is also famous for being the first in Japan to offer authentic Indian curry. You can experience a special moment where "tradition and innovation" coexist in a modern space that is filled with the dignity and warmth of a long-established restaurant and history.♡ The greatest attraction of Shinjuku Nakamuraya is the memorable "authentic taste" created by carefully selected ingredients and unique recipes. A wide variety of menu items are available, including Western food staples, sweets, and bakery items. And one dish you should definitely try is the omurice. Shinjuku Nakamuraya's omurice is characterized by its moist finish, gently wrapped in fluffy, high-quality eggs. The taste, which combines old-fashioned nostalgia and a certain elegance, has been loved by generations 🍅🍳🍚 📍Address: 5F Urawa Parco, 12-1 Higashi Takasago-cho, Urawa-ku, Saitama-shi, Saitama 330-0055 🕰️Business hours: 11:00-22:30 #AbsolutelyFreeTrip

Anzu Tomomo is a shop selling carefully-made baked goods, quietly located near Kita-Urawa Station. Although it is a small shop, the warm atmosphere is loved by the local people. The best thing about it is the crepes. The flavor changes every time you go, so you can enjoy it no matter how many times you go👀♡ I ordered the standard sugar butter, which was crisp and delicious with the butter soaked in🤍 There are also other baked goods with gentle flavors that are made with seasonal and domestic ingredients. The standard items, such as madeleines, financiers, cookies, pound cakes, and scones, each have their own unique characteristics, and the owner's sense shines through in the taste, texture, and appearance♡ You can also enjoy it as a cafe with an eat-in space. There are only a few seats, so you're lucky if there is one available✨ They are particular about the packaging, and the good sense will make both the giver and the recipient happy. 📍Address: 1F Kaita Building, 4-1-10 Kita-Urawa, Urawa-ku, Saitama-shi, Saitama 330-0074 🕰️Business hours: 10:00-16:00 (Mondays 7:00-14:00/Closed Wednesdays) #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #Crepes

The crunchy shaved ice sold at festivals is good, but I still want fluffy shaved ice! This shop is recommended for such occasions. "Koori no Oto" was opened with the desire to spread the appeal of shaved ice to more people. They use ice grown in the famous water village in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture. Many shops only have shaved ice in the summer, but here you can enjoy shaved ice all year round. 🎶 I had the tiramisu shaved ice. I choked a little on the flour, but I was thrilled with the structure that kept me interested until the end, including the mascarpone inside♡ The ever-changing menu never gets old, no matter how many times I go🥹 📍Address: 1F Kita-Urawa Building, 9-32-1 Tokiwa, Urawa-ku, Saitama-shi, Saitama 330-0061 🕰️Business hours: 12:00-18:40 (Saturdays and Sundays 11:00-18:40) #0 yen trip

#0 yen trip [Benkei] at Urawa Station 🍢 This might be my first time drinking in Urawa! I was nostalgic because it was an area where I lived as a child, but I was surprised to see so many bars!! It was a real bar district! lol A friend made a reservation for me at a popular restaurant a little away from the station. When I opened the door, smoke was billowing out of the Yakitori restaurant! It's always full and customers keep coming in and out! And there are a lot of delicious looking menu items♡ The mochi and mochi stew in oden soup were really delicious! (I forgot to take a picture) The yakitori was big and filling♪ The oden was all big and the radish was extra large!! ( ´∀｀)And above all, the cost performance was too good☆ I definitely want to go again!! 📍Address: 2-15-9 Nakamachi, Urawa-ku, Saitama-shi, Saitama
