Felt like going for lunch at Japanese Restaurant and we went down to the Hotel opposit Miyajima island.
We wanted to try Sanma (Pacific Saury) bousushi*,
but today they served Aji (Horse Mackerel) bousushi instead.
Not bad...but I just found tt still Saba (Mackerel) is the best fish for it...
Carrot made into Miyajima's red gate shape. cute and nice side dish.
We could view Miyajima Red gate and island itself, oyster farms and ships for taking up oysters on the sea from the restaurant.
few ships are already there to taken up oysters.
Soon it will be Oyster season.
will it be tasty oysters this year???
*bousushi, is a kind of long sushi, looks like stick.
Vinegret Mackerel with thinly sliced kelp are most common ingredients to be used.
