Monday 20 November: inside Takashimaya department store - a Xmas tree made of colourful bears! |
Another one in the window. |
Bears everywhere. |
This is how Baumkuchen is made. |
In the evening, fugu party at home. One of the guests brought a couple of dishes he'd prepared... | |
Pumpkin in creamy sauce, fugu sashimi at the back. |
Spicy daikon & shiitake mushrooms. |
And he served us all evening. The hot pot with fugu, tofu & veg, inc. the super expensive matsutake mushrooms. To finish off, we added some rice. |
He also brought baked sweet potatoes for Akiko & UsaKousa :-) |
Tuesday 21 November: local kaki fruit: very big (and cheap too.) | |
To Part 3 |
