"気さくな女将さんが迎えてくれる、家庭のような温もり居酒屋 BTSプラカノン駅近く・PDソイ3沿いにある人気小料理屋【黒兵衛】へ初訪問。 今回は3階の個室を利用させていただきましたが、気さくな日本人女将さんが温かく迎えてくれて、まるで実家に帰ってきたかのような居心地の良さ 「おばんざいセット」で少しずつ色んなおかずを楽しみながら、カツオのたたきや一品メニューも堪能。お酒が進む味付けで、どれも手作りの優しさが感じられました。 まさかの【551の豚まん】や、締めに選んだ【チキンラーメン】など、遊び心のあるメニューもあり、何度通っても楽しめそうなお店。 静かな時間をゆっくり過ごしたいときや、友人との落ち着いた食事にもぴったりの一軒です◎"
