Comedian Takuya Gomei's nighttime destination: Hopeken Sendagaya branch in Meiji Jingu Gaien. The nighttime address of that person that I didn't really want to tell you about.

In a corner of bustling Tokyo at night, sometimes alone and quietly. Where would you like to spend that special time? A riverside overlooking the night view, a sparsely populated public bath, a late-night coffee shop... There are as many different nights as there are people. We asked Gomyo Takuya about his usual nighttime destinations.

Late-night drives bring back memories of youth

Meiji Jingu Gaien

Now that I've just gotten rid of my green leaf mark, I'm really enjoying driving. One night, I was driving around in my car for no particular reason. Meiji Jingu Gaien >When I went there, there was less traffic than during the day and it felt really nice.

It was a nostalgic moment for me to realize that I was driving along the same roads where I used to deliver pizzas in my 20s, even on windy and rainy days! When I park near the stadium and take in the fresh air for about 15 minutes, I feel like I'm really living in Tokyo.

After listening to the album "MONSTERS" by imai from group inou, who I went to the driving license training camp with, several times, Hopeken Sendagaya store >. In fact, this place is also a place of my youth. When I take a sip of ramen, the memories of eating it and thinking "I don't want to go to work" instantly come back to me.
