The best OYAKO-DON in Kyoto

OYAKO-DON is Japanese rice bowl dish, in which chicken, egg, sliced onion are all simmered together in a sauce and then served on top of rice.
OYA = parents (chicken)
KO = child (egg)
DON = DONBURI (rice served in a bowl)

And OYAKO-DON is a food name which is becoming known in the world little by little like SUKIYAKI or RAMEN.
All who have tried it, says that was really good!


Yesterday I found the best restaurant where serves it!
The restaurant name is HACHIDAIME GIHEI.
They select rice carefully, Cook the rice by original ceramic pot and also use the free range chicken of Kyoto.
Their OYAKO-DON is perfect!!! You must try it!

GOZASOURO

Let me introduce a Japanese sweet again!
Is is really my favorite from my childhood.



"GOZASOUROU", It is Japanese muffin containing red/white bean jam inside and serves hot.
There are so many similar sweets that are called Taiko-yaki, Kaiten-yaki, Imagawa-yaki, Oban-yaki... in all Japan.
However "GOZASOUROU" is the BEST!

It is very cold and snowing in Kyoto.
Let's get some "GOZASOUROU" and have some Japanese green tea.
They will make you warm and happy :)

Are you enjoying winter sports?

Hi! Today is the coldest day so far this winter, I think.

Are you enjoying winter sports?

I went to snowboarding in MIZUHO SKY PLACE with my friends this week.This is a ski ground where everyone from children and beginners to advanced skiers can have fun.

More and more foreigners, especially Australians who enjoy skiing in Hokkaido, are coming and the region is again becoming an international resort.but Hokkaido isn't the only place you can go skiing and snowboarding.There are a lots of nice ski places in Hiroshima.


Let enjoy winter sports in Hiroshima!!
