Introduced by The Natural Killers, who we featured in Miya-gao No.2♪
No.3 of “Miya-gao” is
Yanta-san!

Yanta-san runs “Bar 山谷” on Honwaka Shopping Street near JR Koshienguchi Station!
The Facebook page for “Bar 山谷” is here.
We also have an article introducing “Bar 山谷.”
Please check it out too☆

Now, let’s get to the questions!


I wasn’t born here, but it’s my beloved hometown!

Only until I was about two, though…
So, what’s your favorite place in Nishinomiya?

I went to Naruo High School,
and I’m grateful that I’ve been able to run a bar in Koshienguchi for nearly 20 years!

That’s amazing.
You may already know all the shops around Koshienguchi,
but please tell us your recommended places in Nishinomiya.

It introduces only restaurants truly worthy of being called famous local spots!

They’re all carefully selected restaurants!
There are also photos of the people at each restaurant, like the managers and chefs,
so it feels reassuring.
(We introduce Nishinomiya Gourmet Masters after this!)
Now, please share a message for Nishinomiya!

Next, I hope I can give something back
to the community and to kids who love soccer,
so I’d appreciate your support!!

and I really respect that!
Lastly, what kind of person would you say you are?

I also love kids who can get passionate about soccer and all kinds of things!!
I coach soccer at Naruo Kita Elementary School too!
From here on, I’d also like to study tea (^-^)


There are still many things I don’t know and can’t do yet,
but I’d like to share information with everyone
and help even a little so that, together, we can make Nishinomiya, starting from Koshienguchi, a safe and comfortable place to live!!

Yanta-san’s love for his hometown is truly incredible.
He’s hardworking
and puts his all into everything he does.
I really felt that he’s loved by so many people.

And, as mentioned in the questions,
“Nishinomiya Gourmet Masters”.
In addition to Yanta-san, who knows the local area inside and out,
five food professionals
introduce carefully selected restaurants in Nishinomiya!

Yanta-san appears in the book too!

Depending on the stamps you collect, you can receive a Gourmet Master certificate♪
Please enjoy gourmet food, drinks, atmosphere, and all five senses
