Oh Japan! Land of fresh fish, delicate flavorings, and the prettiest food! My only regret was not coming here when my palate was more developed and my wallet more stuffed. Next time!
Tokyo
Tsukiji Fish market
We woke up at the crack of dawn to come here and witness this spectacle. A must see for seafood and sushi lovers. To reward yourself you get to eat sushi that will probably be the freshest you ever get.
Yes, that is the famous blow fish! Cute little guy.
We missed the tuna auction but did get to see the results. These specimens are huge!
This was the earliest we've ever had sushi (around 8am) -some salmon, tuna, and roe to start the day off right! Kai loved it but I have to admit I wasn't quite ready for raw that early.
Noodles
It's amazing how something so seemingly simple and unadorned can be so GOOD.
A noodle stall-tons of these around. Below a bowl of soba with dipping sauce and soba with tempura and scallions.
Oh yummy SUSHI . . .
Ground up tuna with a raw egg with fried scallions, peppers, wasabi and seaweed. How simple and amazing!
More sushiThe cutest chocolates ever . . .who could bring themselves to eat this!
Some fish collar and the always available curry!!
