  1.  We had driven from island to island, across the Shimanami expressway, from Imabari till here, and it's the first Roadside station upon reaching Omishima Island. It overlooks another beautiful suspension bridge (I believe to the next island), and the whole place looks airy, right beside the coast.
  2. We noticed that the restaurant was quite crowded with locals, and therefore decided to settle for lunch here. A huge fish water tank in front showcases probably their specialities, flounder and sea bream, and others we couldn't identify.
  3. We ordered 2 set lunches : a mixed fried fish and cuttlefish sashimi set and a fried flounder set, and we were not disappointed : fresh, and a delight ! We did not choose the sea bream sashimi as we didn't know how to appreciate the slightly tough texture of the flesh.
  4. Like at most self-serviced or similar restaurants, you will notice free water or green tea is at your disposal but self-service, and a tray-return area for returning your trays after meals. We really like having hot green tea after a meal, and never having to pay for this drink. Thumbs up for the Japanese for providing such a service quite consistently everywhere.
  5. A good stop-over lunch place if you are somewhere along the Shimanami expressway.
