Feodor in Tokyo

My friend Feodor is visiting Tokyo on business(I suppose it is on bisiness!!) .We went to Kamakura and some other nice places in Tokyo. Here's some pictures of us.
Hope he's coming back soon, and I have already listed up some places where I want to take him next time!!

Omikuji holder in the shrine to make your future better.

Hurbs-2

Rosemary & Mint

The rosemary I planted a few years ago went through last winter safely again and getting bigger and bigger...I may need to transplant again. And this is the mint I planted this year.If it grows a little more...I probably try some kind of middle-eastern food.

A snap in Kyoto

On a side street

Soy-milk donut

Soy-milk donut

A first experience of soy-milk donut in Kyoto.
We bought 10 donuts and finished them in 5 mins! They are smaller and much softer compare to the usual donuts.Probably I could eat all of them if it was not right after breakfast. So yummy!
The shop is near the west end of Shin-kyogoku shopping arcade. 10 donuts for 200yen. I guarantee its worth trying!!

Hurbs



Hurbs

I transplanted Italian parsley a few weeks ago. I was a little worrying if its still too cold, but look at this! So, I planted Fennnel,Mint,Coriander and Rocket salad this week and also I am thinking of planting some other hurbs...such as Dill and Basil. Futhermore I bought a Blueberry's baby tree!! I am looking forword to cooking those hurbs.

@ QV market
Queen Victoria market is one of my favorite place in Melbourne, full of verious kinds of veges! I would spend a whole day there with guessing how i cook those veges...














Inside of the market
クイーン・ヴィクトリア マーケットの中のEat Inプレイス。(奥の方にあるお店の方が美味しい。)ここで食べたのはどでかいソーセージを挟んだホットドッグ。日本で食べるホットドッグとはちょっと違って パンがしっかりしてます。あえて言うならヨーロピアンなホットドック。とにかくソーセージが美味しかった!日本のソーセージと違ってお肉自体にしっかりと下味がついていて風味豊か。メルボルン(オーストラリア)は移民が多い(サッカーWorld Cup出場のメンバー名を見ても何とかビッチさんが多かったりする)ので 色んな国の本格的な料理がリーズナブルな値段で楽しめちゃう。特にギリシャ・イタリア・中近東・ベトナム料理あたりはお薦めだそうです。今回の旅行中は マレーシア・インド・ギリシャ・中国・イタリアの料理を食べたけど ハズレなし。恐るべしメルボルン。もちろん各国料理に対応する肉・野菜・調理器具もリーズナブルな値段で調達可能。モロッコの調理器具(クスクス料理用)を購入するかどうかかなり迷いましたが重かったので次回に持ち越し・・・。残念。
