Ryokan -4-
Posted October 9th, 2009 in Japan No Comments »
We were awaked by delicious breakfast ♪
People may be surprised by the photo above – so many dishes in the morning! But this is a typical Japanese breakfast. Typical Japanese breakfast items include steamed rice, miso soup, tamago-yaki (square shaped seasoned omelet), grilled fish, pickles, etc. The breakfast in this ryokan was gorgeous 🙂
On the second day we walked around famous Lake Kinrin-Ko area. The name of the lake means “shining shinning scales of fish in the setting sun”. … it was bit smaller than I thought, but I guess it’s because I’m from Shiga and I know how big the Lake Biwa (the biggest lake in Japan) is. :p
There are many souvenir shops around, as well as Hello Kitty shop…
We came back to ryokan around 3pm, then stayed in room. Taking bath, relaxing … until dinner time!
This night we had …
grilled white fish with white miso sauce – assortment of eight dishes -cabbage roll – samma sashimi – local wagyu shabushabu – chargrilled crab legs and matsutake – okowa (sticky rice) with mountain vegetables – dessert.
We throughly enjoyed it! So full…
