Rotisserie Chicken Served with a Smile

Facebook友に教えてもらった: 上田市本町のAnniversary 3号店での丸焼きチキン。我が娘、美咲ちゃんの早い誕生日お祝いでさっそく行きました。久しぶりのローストチキンで最高に美味しかった!なおかつ、スタッフの元気な笑顔は思い出になる。

以前はAnniversary 1号店に行きました。しのちゃんのフレアーコックテールや展示されているランボルギーニは一生忘れられない。これで3号店のファンにもなりました。今度は2号店を探さんとあかん。

3号店は上田市本町の「極楽横丁」にある。飲食店37店を紹介するガイドもある。こんなに楽しいガイドは久しぶりです。お店の説明文で「居酒屋です。普通です。」から「若けぇ奴らにゃたまらんクラブ。坂井のり子はいない。念の為。」までの楽しい文章。ちなみに、Anniversary 3号店は「こんなお店を待ってました。ノリの良さは天下一品!」という。納得です。

上田城の桜は来月咲きますが、花見のついでに本町横町へどうぞ。

I heard from one of my Facebook friends about Anniversary #3 in Ueda City's Honmachi district. They serve rotisserie chicken. Do you know how long it's been since I've had rotisserie chicken? I used the excuse of an early birthday celebration for our daughter Misaki to take the family there.

It turns out this restaurant has one of only a dozen or so rotisserie roasters in the whole country. I was one pleased chicken eater. But even more memorable than the chicken was the friendliness of the waitstaff. I should have expected that. We had been to Anniversary #1 before, and besides the cool Lamborghini parked in the entrance, Shino-chan's flair cocktail demonstration was something I will never forget. That Anniversary group knows how to entertain.

Speaking of entertaining, there is a Honmachi Gokuroku ('Land of Happiness') Yokocho ('side street') restaurant guide featuring 37 different establishments, including Anniversary #3. What, you mean your town doesn't have a Land of Happiness side street? Well then, you'll just have to come to Ueda's.

Next month, the cherry trees at Ueda Castle will be in bloom. Come see them and then head over to Honmachi for some entertaining eats!
