Hokkaido Delights

Japan , as an Indian matriculate was supposed to know in my school days, is a group of four major and several other islands including very special Okinawa islands. Four major ones are Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku. This event was organised to showcase the cuisine of Hokkaido --the northern most and extremely cold region of Japan. Since i am a vegetarian and the very special potato of Hokkaido were selling at whopping Rs./-145 per Kg. in terms of Indian Currency, i simply focused on drinks . Tried lots of beer and wine and one set of aloo tikki kind of item plus one corn stick-- Bhutta to be precise. Of all this Bhutta was outright winner ...ummm very delicious, like the one we never get to taste in India . Couldn't take the picture but it was damn good , the rest was also good but am neither Vinod Dua nor Vir Sangvi so can't give the serious graphic details , but you will enjoy the pics. i hope !

  1. मुनीष भाई,
    छटे फ़ोटो में क्या है समझ में नहीं आ रहा है, आक्टोपस है या कुछ और, दो दिन बाद हर की दून घूमा लाऊँ।

    अभी तो यहाँ भी टमाटर 35-40 ही बिक रहे है।

  4. Don't find the food very attractive; the two girls are, their dogs notwithstanding. I agree with your choice of food in the given scenario.

  6. @Smart Indian-- जिन जीवों को पहचान सका उन्हीं की तस्वीरें दी हैं अनुराग भाई । वैसे घोड़े के कच्चे मांस के लिए भी होक्कायदो मशहूर है । अन्य क़रीबी मुल्कों की तरह सामान्यतः श्वान भक्षण की परंपरा यहाँ नहीं हैं किंतु अपवाद से इन्कार नहीं ।
