Visit linkThe blog reads like a food-travel diary attached to a cooking school. Posts follow regional trips: seafood in Kushiro on Hokkaido, kombu with a fisherman in Rausu, tea picking in Shizuoka, chicken nanban and carp in the moat in Miyazaki, a pottery town in Tamba Sasayama, and Hiroshima and Kure. Tokyo posts cover a food tour, a hidden fishmonger restaurant and Kappabashi, the kitchen-tools district. Each trip is written as a food story rather than a recipe list.
