got up early because of jet lag. so took a nice sunrise walk in the freezing cold temperatures. i couldn’t feel my hands!! but it was beautiful!
took a stroll down to the harbor. i just love checking out the local fishing culture here. checked out the waves too but it was flat just like this.
went by Kaisers to say hi to Te-chan. but i forget he’s still in Hawaii. feels so weird that he’s there and i’m here. he must love Hawaii as much as i love Japan. haha.
Japanese food fascinates me. the presentation is amazing.
the best chawanmushi ever!
this fish was swimming 10 minutes earlier. how can fresh get any fresher than this?
raw oysters! yeah!
this fish head soup was delicious! went good with the matsutake mushrooms. and good with a cold beer to.
Kimura-san displaying some of Wakayama’s hidden secrets. i don’t even know what you call this? but it was so sweet!
sweet shrimp with eggs? what ever it was, it was super good. i totally forgot about my shrimp allergy and ate one. haha.
Ushio Master is the master of food. i’ve been coming here for the past 20 years and it only gets better and better!
sipping between USA and Japan. both i love so much! cheers to you!
