Das<p>The Kenbishi and Tatsukiri (👆🏽; back row left two bigger bottles in prev) had to get wrapped up to go - finished and enjoyed the others as we cleared out our fridge and apartment.<br>Last night stay in a hotel room closer to the airport for our early morning flight out and this small bottle and tipple - Sakuramasamune <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Sake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sake</span></a> junmai ginjo (60% polish)<br>Quite nice at room temp<br><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DasInKobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DasInKobe</span></a></p>
Das<p>Not complaining in the least, did so much on this trip to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Japan</span></a> , just amused at my (former) self - what was I thinking?! <br>Among the things I didn't get to doing - play <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/TableTennis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TableTennis</span></a>. There is a club or something in <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Kobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kobe</span></a> I flagged on maps but I just didn't go there even though I brought my paddles and shoes. Maybe just as well, as I haven't played since Feb 2020. <br>Paddles will go back, shoes won't - no space. <br><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DasInKobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DasInKobe</span></a></p>
Das<p>Partner had indicated a desire to taste fugu, so some sashimi in our apartment a day before we had to leave. Lovely crunchy texture & flavor in these thin slices (with ponzu & a bit of momiji oroshi - grated daikon+chili). The other thick cut skin & cooked pieces were a bit tough more texture than flavor (imo).<br>Dinner of oven grilled miso pickled gindara (misnomer = black cod) - just so terrific! Sweet and charred (from the sugar) and fatty umami delight.<br><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Food</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Cooking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cooking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/AptCooking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AptCooking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DasInKobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DasInKobe</span></a></p>
