Hobbies

1105 1.jpg

Do you have some hobbies?
My hobbies include taking photos, reading books, drinking coffee, eating something yummy, collecting leather goods and some cameras and lenses .

But, those are too luxurious for me. I have to cut off my expensive hobby.
Then, I have to find a real hobby which is important for me.

Probably I can find it someday, or I will look for it forever.

Marron de Tempura

111025.jpg

I ate tempura for lunch at "Yamamonoue Hotel" in Tokyo.
It was a little bit expensive for me, but today I also received my salary.
I ordered Tempura course A-1.
It includes shrimps, ten kinds of this season's vegetables, and miso soup.

Each of them were fabulous, ingenious, and of course tasting the best  !
Particularly, cashew nuts tempura surprised me its sweet flavor. If I have a chance in this Autumn I'd like to eat it again, or next year i will.

After I left there, I went to the National museum of Western Art at Ueno.
Now, it is displaying "Goya" from Prado museum in Spain as a special exhibition.
I thought they're not bad. If you are interest in them , please go see them directly !

Chestnuts rice

I ate chestnuts rice this evening.
It's much more delicious and I think it brings us autumn every year.
Summer season will pass in one month, I think.
Many friends say me "Don't you feel something sad?" when we feel autumn wind every year.
But, I never think so, autumn is the best season for me.
That season fits to me.
Although Winter season will come next it brings us sweet fruits, beautiful red leaves and refreshing winds.

Bowl of eel and rice

Now, Japan is in summer.
It's really humid and hot to live this season in Japan.

We should perk ourselves up.
We ought to eat sustaining food.

Today, I ate bowl of eel and lice.
It makes me fine !

110803 1.jpg

I like eel, probably I'd like to eat it at least  three times in this summer.

Today ;  I went to "Stella Polare" at Koshigaya lake town to deliver a wedding photo album.

Whenever I do so I have lunch there.
This lunch includes an hors d'oeuvre or salad, pasta (Select from five flavors), sweets and a cup of drink(tea or coffee). It's only 1,500 yen.
It's enough to be full up.
It goes without saying that those taste very delicious !

I recommend you this fascinating Italian restaurant if you go around the Koshigaya lake town.

I can assure you that you can refresh from here.

Taking mineral in pleasure

110702.jpg

As well as, losing moisture we might be deficient in mineral.
I'm going to take much mineral waters and salts than usually, at least 2 month to come.
Of course, I should eat any kind of foods.
But, I would remember to eat with pleasures, anytime.
Actually, today ; I have no appetite a little bit. Then, I would take "Tofu" with yummy mineral soy source.

Cracked glass art

Today;
We went to "la butte boisée" at Jiyugaoka for a Tomoko's birthday party.
We had warm time, and we had so delicious meal.
Thank you for ingenious cuisine, Chef Morishige !
Thank you for great hospitality, Ms. Fukushi !
Actually, we are proud of our job that have tied up with that restaurant since 2006.

110428_1.jpgBy the way.
This is a artistic plate which is made from glass by competent meister.
Handmade goods are the most appropriate ones for those who are very particular about them.

Add more tastes into the soy source 

110426.jpg

I can't have much meal at a time, as well as I'm a poor drinker.
I'd rather I have delicious meals and flavorful coffee, instead.

The other day, I bought this interesting seasoning which will be completed by myself at shopping mall.

If anything,  I would like olive oil dressing better than the soy source.
But, I think soy source that is attached in "Natto" is the best.

I had a certain inspiration when I found this miraculous bottle.
"I will be given similar taste from this !!"

110426_1.jpg

Probably, this seasoning kit will bring me a little happiness.

Bread

110417.jpgI've been coming up with a solutions that I supply all couple's satisfaction forever.
Also, photographers who belong to EasteEgg are included to my consideration.
But, some of consensuses in my mind are yet to be reached to the best solution.

Thinking and planning for work all a day made my head tired.
Therefore, I would like to have some sweet bread.

Yatsugatake-Bread

From Ishigaki island

110412_1.jpg
Yesterday;
My wife  was given this as a present  by her sister.
Usually, I'm a sweet tooth that is a well known fact around me.
I don't feel like eat a special spicy foods, I'd rather eat bitter vegetable.

But sometimes I have eating spicy foods, too.
For example,
Korean foods, Indian foods, and Mexican foods.

Therefore, I have expectation to this "Rahyou" that will give me good taste.

Please take a look at here

Delonghi


Today ; It's absolutely cold. If it will be continuing, we may have snow tonight.
When I was child, I thought snow is a one of the cloud falling. I baked chicken in the noon (Coach was my wife), and I ate it. It was very delicious, but I think no doubt to make it more deliciously. I'm going to try again, and I'll do more salty.
