We caught the last day of Tori no Ichi at Juzaisan Chokoku-ji (Temple of Tori) in Asakusa. Many people came here to pray for good health, good fortune and good business. Tori no Ichi is an annual event held in November.
So what if you want to make okonomiyaki? Here at Milky Way in Osaka, we got the chef to illustrate how to make okonomiyaki for us. Firstly, we have the Hiroshima style, also known as hiroshimayaki. Then we have the Negiyaki (okonomiyaki with spring onions). Both are very delicious and easy to make… my wife can attest :P
After walking around Dōtonbori, for a few hours, it was time for dinner. We found another place for okonomiyaki.
After settling into our hotel, it’s time to find some dinner. The weather was crisp and chilling and we opt to walk underground at Namba Walk.
We went to Sushi Hachi in Richmond earlier this month. It is one of the better sushi restaurants in Richmond.
Since I was already in Hong Kong, the chances of getting Japanese goods were very good. There were lots of Japanese food to choose from. Even though it was not like actually visiting Japan, I was satisfied with the choices available.
These photos were taken using an iPhone 3GS with Camera+.
With Autumn just around the corner (roughly another week), let’s review some of our favorite Japanese food we had this summer :) Most of these photos are taken by my wife who is resistant to strange stares from other restaurant patrons.
Been drinking less coffee lately. I still enjoy coffee but sometimes I feel like some alternatives. So far I find Muji tea to be one of my favorites.
