earth_colorsEp. 7: "Lamb Shoulder Roast and Lamb Chop of Chitose-Funabashi, Setagaya Ward, Tokyo"
Episode Synopsis. Goro has been busy lately. Although he is thankful for the work, he has been feeling a bit tired. He goes to Sakuragaoka via Chitose-Funabashi Station to visit the younger sister of a friend. She is yoga instructor, Saito Rei (Asami Reina), who wants to consult Goro regarding changing the interiors of her own new yoga studio where she is planning to move into soon. She also taught Goro a yoga technique that could help him relax in case he is feeling tired. After the meeting, Goro tries the yoga technique in the middle of the street to see if it works. However, he feels hunger instead of relaxation, and so he goes in search of an eatery. While walking in a residential area, on his way back to the station, he comes upon a small sliver-type of building, which has two entrances. It is a yakiniku shop and bar, called "Maasan", that serves "Jingisukan (Genghis Khan)", or grilling of lamb meat and mutton. Goro enters inside and is greeted by the owner (Kawano Naoki). He takes a seat by the counter, next to a customer, an old man and a regular of the shop named Yoshida (Mickey Curtis). Goro notices that the shop offers varied ways of cooking sheep: grilled lamb chop, sheep rump, offal, neck meat, sheep fat, mutton soup, and even cheese made from sheep's milk. "This shop's sheep level is high," Goro says later on...
Drama Notes:
Chitose-Funabashi-Sakuragaoka. The location of the shop is primarily a residential area with plenty of apartment complexes, elementary and high schools, and college institutes. Places to visit: Kibooka Park (pic above) and complex, and Uyama Shrine.

Jingisukan [ジンギスカン]. I already discussed about this in my drama notes in S1E08.

Seseri [せせり]. It refers to neck part, usually chicken neck when cooking yakitori. In this episode, sheep's neck meat was used.
Onions of Awaji (island). These are said to be large and sweet.
