Michelin Star: Eat Up Japan

91

for the past 9 days, i was living in a dream!  i was eating anything and everything!  from the 7/11 foods to homemade meals, i kept on eating and eating.  this is a beautiful creation that Naomi-san cooked for us.  homemade hamburger that tasted like something out of a Michelin Star Restaurant!

then Ryoko-san gave us a cooler of fresh live abalone.  we had that grilled up and it was delicious.  from the sea, to the grill, to our mouth.  only in Japan…

i already knew where i wanted to go for my last meal in Japan.  this tonkatsu restaurant is one of the best in Japan and since it’s oyster season, i was hoping there were fried oysters.  

and guess what?  there were fresh oysters on the daily special menu!  i love kaki fry!!!

they gave 5 big pieces with unlimited cabbage and rice.  only for $12.  i think i ate too much because my stomach was huge!  

i wanted to visit many more places in Japan but since i brought my surfboard and foil board, i was very limited.  riding the bus or train with this big and heavy bag isn’t fun at all.  so this trip i had to cut short but next time the only thing i will need to carry is my googles because my next trip to Japan will be strictly surfing the mountains!  see you guys next time in the powder!
