1月17日、私は今年初の年休を取って、詩吟関係の新年会に参加しましたら。御徒町駅を出てすぐの吉池ビル9階の「吉池食堂NOW!」です。
On January 17th, I took my first annual leave of the year and attended a Shigin-related New Year's party.
"Yoshiike Shokudo NOW!" is located on the 9th floor of the Yoshiike Building just outside Okachimachi Station.

眼下を見下ろせば、JRの線路、遠方には東京スカイツリーが臨めます。なかなかの景色で、昼飲みの生ビールが心地良く、次々出てくるお料理も格別でした。
If you look down, you can see the JR tracks and Tokyo Skytree in the distance. It was quite a view, and I enjoyed draft beer for lunch, and the dishes that came out one after another were exceptional.

二次会はカラオケルーム、上野に近いので、井沢八郎さんの「ああ、上野駅」やら、福田こうへいさんの「南部のふるさと」やら、ノビーさんの「母の鞄」を歌って帰りました。
The second party was at a karaoke room near Ueno, so we sang Hachiro Izawa's "Ah, Ueno Station", Kouhei Fukuda's "Nanbu no Furusato", and Nobby's "Haha no Kaban".
