Area around “薪火Restaurant K2”

↑ If you head this way (north), you’ll find places like “ほのかの果実,” “Ashiya Municipal Iwazono Elementary School,” and “天ぷら&ワイン いわい.”

↑ If you go the opposite way (south), you’ll find places like the takeout gyoza specialty shop “けやきや”, “中国菜・HATSU,” and “いかり 芦屋店,” before passing under the Hankyu Kobe Line overpass.

↑ This is what the view across the street looks like.
Final thoughts
At the Western-style restaurant “K2,” hamburg steak and omurice seem to be popular menu items! I wonder if they’ll be available at the new location too. Looking forward to it!
