Solo no Gourmet" distributes a collaborative booklet "Solo no Drameshi" at highway SA/PAs!　Goro introduces "Dora-meshi," a driver's meal from various regions.

The gourmet manga "Solo no Gourmet," which has become a big breakout hit after being adapted into a live-action TV drama, has collaborated with NEXCO East Japan, and starting January 26, the collaboration booklet "Solo no Dorameshi" will be distributed.

This is a project to distribute "Solo no Dorameshi," a collaboration booklet with the gourmet manga "Solo no Gourmet" at 154 service areas (SA)/parking areas (PA) under NEXCO East Japan's jurisdiction. The collaboration booklet is an extra edition of the "Solo no Gourmet" pilgrimage guide, specially edited for highway drivers, in which the main character, Goro Inokashira, introduces recommended "Drameshi" (driver's meal) at each SA/PA with realistic comments and illustrations in a total of 16 pages. The Drameshi are divided by region (Hokkaido, Tohoku, Kanto, Joshinetsu, etc.), making it convenient to find a Drameshi in the vicinity. The magazine is distributed at shopping corners in participating SA/PAs (*excluding convenience stores and some SA/PAs). One copy will be distributed per bill, regardless of the total amount of purchases.

The special website (http://www.driveplaza.com/special/dorameshi/) introduces Dorameshi from a total of 154 locations. It is possible to search by cuisine genre or road name. In addition, there is a "Gokuri button" that reproduces the "gokuri" sound that the main character, Goro Inokashira, makes just before he eats his meal, allowing visitors to share the feeling of "I'm hungry! A unique device allows visitors to empathize with the feeling of "I'm hungry!

Comment from Masayuki Kusumi (original author)
The idea behind "Solo no Gourmet" is that even if you are lonely, as long as you can eat delicious food, you are happy enough. Only when you are eating delicious food, you are free from various ties. What kind of delicious food awaits us in the future? Thinking this way, even the solitary journey will be a little more enjoyable. Please enjoy the world of "Dorameshi of Solitude" as if you were Goro Inokashira.
