Tsubasaya is an izakaya (bar or tavern) in Toyota City. It has great food and a great atmosphere. Being the tall and blond gaijin that we are, we always call a lot of attention to ourselves whenever we go there. This has led to an appearance on the Tsubasaya blog once before, as you could read in the July 27th post ‘Making friends at the izakaya’.
Last night we showed up at Tsubasaya’s with an entire group of gaijin to have our own little nomikai in order to welcome some colleagues of Dennis who had come on business trip. I was delighted when one of the waitresses asked to take our picture. Yes! Another appearance on the Tsubasaya blog.

(can anyone translate the text underneath the photo please?)
Maybe I should make it a personal challenge to appear on their blog as much as possible. I wonder if an average of once a month is feasible. I already see how this kind of situation could easily get out of hand, with me showing up there in increasingly ridiculous costumes in order to make it to their blog. I’ll keep you posted on how it goes!
Als ik de andere foto’s op de Tsubasaya blog zie, dan zijn jullie daar nog braaf… (ook al zijn sommige pintjes al leeg…)
Haha, wij zijn héééél braaf, of wat dacht je? 🙂
Looks so fun. It looks as though you are fast becoming a joren so I’m sure you’d make their blog many times over especially if you bring different people every time you go.
Thank you for the advice Ayako-san. I’ll do my best! Gambarimasu!
Wow, I’m impressed with your Japanese skills! And thanks for the translation.
So it turns out that the text that I thought applied to our photo is just some site information. Because the text you translated only applies to the first photograph (we are neither stylish nor did we attend the Okazaki fireworks festival).
I guess our photograph is pretty self-explanatory then: a bunch of gaijin drinking beer 🙂
Above the top picture on the page it reads:
今日の素敵なお客様。
岡崎の花火の帰りに
来てくれました~\(^o^)/
ありがとうございます!!
(Translation:
Today’s stylish customers.
After going to see the Okazaki FIreworks they were kid enough to stop by. 😀
Thank you very much!)
The text underneath the page I think is just site information、( For the Tubasaya -place name I can’t read- West Town Home Page, click here).
いいなぁぁ~ I’m jealous! ^_^
