VOLKS - Delicious steaks

Restaurant Review by Y. N

I would like to introduce the family restaurant "VOLKS". This restaurant is a steak house. It's located in Tsurumi and it is on National Route 1. The main dishes of restaurant are, of course steaks. This restaurant is non-smoking in all seats and the atmosphere is calm and the tables are wide, so you can enjoy your meal.

That day I ordered Angus Cut Steak Lunch (\ 1,328) and my sister ordered Hamburger and Steak Lunch (\ 1,436). Soup, breads and rice come with every dish, and they are free of charge. And if you pay 300 yen, you can also  add a salad bar. The steaks has more volume than it looks and it provides a sense of satisfaction. Meats are tender and the compatibility with onion sauce is also good. Main dishes are not only beef, but also chicken and pork, and there are other menu items, such as pasta and dessert.

The prices are 1,280 ~ 5,000 yen. but lunch set is from 880 ~ less than 2,000 yen, so they are reasonable. Lunch time is from 11 o'clock to 16 o'clock so I recommend going at that time.

Movie Review - Cinderella (2011)


I recently watched the movie “Cinderella” starring model, Vanessa Hessler. This movie is an Italian TV movie. It came out in 2011. This movie was directed by Christian Duguay, and the screenwriter and filming staff were production staff of “Coco Chanel” (2008). This story is arranged in a modern style, so you see a different thing from the fairy tale.

In this movie Cinderella, whose name is Aurora Deluca, lives in Rome with her father and she wants to be a pianist. Then her father got married, but her father died. Her stepmother works her as a servant, but she always has a strong-will and is kind and she hasn’t lost hope yet. One day she meets a wealthy young man, Sebastian. Can she overcome her circumstances?

The song that Aurora plays on the piano, is so impressive and it will be hard to forget. Also one billion yen was used for production costs, so costumes and furniture are nostalgic and beautiful. Please pay attention to the clothes of Aurora. Vanessa Hessler is attractively dressed in the clothes of the 1950s.

“Cinderella” is an example of a movie in the “Romance” genre but the development of the story is fast so I think even if you don’t like “Romance” genre, you can enjoy it.


From this movie, we learn that people can grow up beautiful without money and get happiness.
