居酒屋についてのプレゼン例

1.    I’d like to talk about izakaya.

2-①    Izakaya is a name for a Japanese style pub or bar. The liquors izakaya serve are beer, sake, or Japanese rice wine, shochu, or distilled spirits, and cocktails. Of course they offer soft drinks, too. You can enjoy a variety of food such as yakitori, or grilled chicken, karaage, or deep-fried chicken, edamame, or boiled green soybeans, sashimi, or sliced raw fish to name just a few. During winter, you can also enjoy Japanese style hot-pot dishes.

2-② →やきとりや、お鍋など具体例を挙げて説明してもよいし、突出しやお燗の話でもよい
    If you want to try hot sake, I recommend izakaya. When you order sake, please try to say “okan”, the staff might be pleased to bring hot sake. When we have hot sake, special liquor bottle shaped ceramic container is often used. Sake cups usually accompany the container. They are very small, because sake can be enjoyed little by little with food. If you have hot sake together with Japanese food, your body and heart might become warmer.

2-②→自分のエピソードやお勧めのお店などを紹介してもよい
    Izakaya used to be the places for men in the past, but recently as working women are increasing in numbers, more and more working women stop there to enjoy cuisines. In addition, it also attracts more and more overseas tourists. They find izakaya offer a various kinds of foods and drinks at reasonable prices.

3.    You can enjoy drinking, eating, and talking with others at Izakaya. Please visit izakaya and have a good time.
