おいしそうですね、そのウイスキー!でも、アイリッシュのウイスキーの方が好きなんだ。特に「Cardhu 12 Year」と「Laphroaig」です。
今日も翻訳をしてみた。粗品ですが、どうぞ. 直訳以外の翻訳をしてみたんですが。
Summary
October the 6th
Today I went to a bar. This is a bar that is 5 or 6 stops away from my nearest [train] station. This was the second time I’ve been here. It might be American-inspired, there is an American flag inside. Further to this, there is only Western-style food. Today I ate potato salad and garlic toast. Both were 500 yen, similar to a light snack. I first drank a whisky and soda, then I drank a Bloody Mary and finally I drank whisky. There were two brands of whisky, Maker’s Mark and Wild Turkey, both of them bourbon. In order to properly appreciate the taste, I drank it straight. Maybe because I drank it first, for me Maker’s Mark felt tastier. It is pleasant to have a drink there as the owner is friendly and tells a lot of things. Today was also a pleasant night.
「ウイスキー」と「ストレート」という言葉は私にとって一つの テロニウス・モンクの曲と連想されています: Straight, No Chaser.
良い週末を
