Welcome to "FOOD FARE" - a photo series where I share some of my favorite meals and desserts.
|
Welcome to the どんたく Grocery Store. Ishikawa is known for its fresh fish, especially in Nanao. I've yet to purchase an entire fish to cook at home. |
|
So much food, but I have no idea what they are! I need to learn how to read food-related kanji so I know what I'm buying. |
|
Shrimp fresh out of the bay, yummmm. |
|
I mentioned that Kanazawa sells gold leaf ice cream. This one is green tea-vanilla twist. The gold leaf has no taste, though it does make me feel rich, like, "I have so much gold leaf, what should I do? Guess I'll just eat the extra." |
|
I didn't expect to see chocolate-covered strawberries on the sushi conveyor belt! If you order off the computer screen menu, the sushi comes to you on a shinkansen. |
|
My supervisor, her supervisor, and the ALT prefectural advisor went out to lunch together for my welcoming orientation. We had a Japanese-style meal of sashimi, rice, miso soup, picked veggies, and an egg-pudding dessert. |
|
There is a French sub-culture in Japan (like you wouldn't believe). In Wakura there is a Parisian-style confectionary shop with a museum of sculptures made out of sugar and glaze. You eat your sweets while looking out the giant windows towards Notojima across Nanao Bay.
|
|
The confectionary is named Le Musee de H. I tried their signature dessert - chocolate mousse and... |
|
...an accompanying cappuccino. Nanao really does have the best of everything ♥ |
