The dinner lasted for five hours, but he left energetically in his Porsche.</figcaption></figure>
In the twilight of Daikanyama (Shibuya Ward), Tetsuro Degawa&#8217;s (60) Porsche 911 Carrera 2, his companion for 20 years, was stuck in traffic.
However, even at 60 and still thriving with 10 regular TV shows and 9 commercials, the beloved comedian was not irritated. Instead, he rolled down the driver’s window in the muggy rainy season and cheerfully responded to fans shouting &#8216;Degawa!&#8217; and &#8216;Tetchan!&#8217; from the sidewalk.
This busy &#8217;60-year-old comedian&#8217; went to a restaurant with no sign.
&nbsp;
“It&#8217;s a members-only hidden izakaya with no published address or phone number. Known for its high-quality seafood, it’s a favorite secret spot for gourmet celebrities.” (food writer)
&nbsp;
At this well-known secret spot, Degawa was meeting with according to an entertainment industry executive several people including Erina Iwata (28) from Nippon TV. 
&nbsp;
“Tetsuro Degawa has had several dinners with Iwata and Maria Tani (28) from &#8216;Itte Q!&#8217; They are actually middle school classmates. Iwata asked Degawa through Tani to go out for a meal, and they have met a few times. This time, other associates were also present,&#8217; the executive adds.” 
&nbsp;
Just before 1 AM, several people, including Degawa, emerged from the restaurant in intervals. Among them was indeed a beautiful woman who appeared to be Iwata.
&nbsp;
Even past 60, Degawa continues to take on challenging shoots and values his program staff. This dedication seems to be supporting his ongoing success.
