I had a short trip to Nagasaki for 2 days/1 night.
I took a bus from Nagasaki Airport to the city center. One of the purposes of this trip was to visit “Ginrei”, which was the oldest restaurant opened in 1930 in Nagasaki. Unfortunately it moved to a different place, so I couldn’t drink fantastic soda. I still remember that one day in summer I drank the soda in an exotic atmosphere caused by antique glasses and music boxes. Suddenly the soda disappeared in front of me. This let me down.
I had to give up to seek it because of stream of time. Instead, I drop in on a next cafe, “Fujio” and sipped a cup of coffee in a classic atmosphere on the premises. I felt a different exotic atmosphere from “Ginrei”. It healed my soul. After that I explored Teramachi and ate lunch at Tofu cuisine “Umenohana“, which my friend in Nagasaki recommended me. I ordered full-course lunch.
The menu contained “boiled Mitsuba & Yuba”, “Tofu dumpling”, “Sashimi”, “Minced duck & Tofu pan”, “Yuba & Mozuku”, “Yuba gratin”, “Yuba-Chazuke”, “pickle”, and “gluten bun”. This is a lot, isn’t this? however most of them were made from soybeans, so it tasted soft anf healthy. I made for Inasayama Hotel after the lunch. This hotel had scenic night view, which was my purpose too.
At late night I drank brandy in the lounge, and the beauty of the night view I saw was more than my expectation. Surface of Nagasaki Harbor and the city center was totally quiet. It was just like gem-strewn sparklem, and my first day ended.
