small Friday night with Jazz

so, finally here I came. after work, alone.

"いーぐる", a small classic Jazz place in Yotsuya.

an old man with glasses, on the little corner, 

that must be his special seat on Friday night.

doing nothing, even without a book or cellphone, 

sipping a coffee and gives himself to the sound of jazzy trumpet.

noise + coffee = strange comfort.

went to Akihabara Goodman to see Triple Fire.
it was sunday night, so we had a cup of coffee instead of beer.
distorted sound of noise were being discharged
through the thick door of the live house,
and melted together with caffein.

yes, bagels.

   second time to bake bread in my life. pretty nice.

"Rumble", enclosure of 1960s in Shinjuku basement.

home made rask with honey butter.

     easy and yummmm

so crazy, so weird

so many TV reporters...

aw huge robster!

and so is the wedding cake..

just like a scene from Disney world, 

...on the way home, we were exhausted.

some cuisine from Moomin Valley.

mental sketch modified, of us, of a little night.

"Nanatsu-Mori", a small cafe in Koenji was named after Kenji Miyazawa's a poem,

屈折率

七つ森のこつちのひとつが

水の中よりもつと明るく

そしてたいへん巨きいのに

わたくしはでこぼこ凍つたみちをふみ

このでこぼこの雪をふみ

向ふの縮れた亜鉛あえんの雲へ

陰気な郵便脚夫きやくふのやうに　　

（またアラツデイン　洋燈ラムプとり）

急がなければならないのか

this is so beautiful that I have even no confidence in translating it.

This makes me sick. however.

According to the official web-page of well-known pizza buffet,

 "Shakey's", was"opened in a remodeled grocery store

 in Sacramento, California 

in 1954 by Sherwood 'Shakey' Johnson.

it was originally established as "ye public house" 

for pizza & beer, Johnson indulged his passion 

for Dixieland jazz and added live ragtime music to mix, 

featuring banjos and player pianos 

throughout his rapidly expanding franchise ".

I never knew! how nice. 

...well, I didn't feel a scrap of Dixieland jazz and Ragtime 

at Shakey's Shibuya though.

but I love this commercial. 

my recent interest; cooking.

because,

"すべて楽しいことは、お腹にいいのですよ！"

(what you find fun always works good to your stomach too.)

well, yeah i know I am a bit too influenced by Moomin mom these days.

Jinbocho: a biggest second-hand book district in tokyo.

HUGE Napolitan Spaghetti

and this is how we eat

coffee after meal always

and finally got this book i've longed for! hooray

at a cafe, Mme Cirque

Far advanced has the night in Shinjuku.  

we shared some parts of it
with a cup of tea. 

Shizutani School, the oldest public elementary school in Japan.

this place slightly reminds me of my favourite place in sweden.

This place, Hummock Cafe, located in Himeji,

I've always longed for going there again

since I went there last time in summer break back home.

As soon as I arrived there first time,

 I totally fell in love with this place.

this small restaurant appears 

after going through the winding narrow road 

and soon small harbor starts to be seen,

it is almost there.

foods are great, people serving are so nice.

very clean, cozy, friendly, chilled out,

it's stylish, but nothing is going too far.

everything is just so fine.
