Japan Photo Blog, Vol. 54: Food!
食べ物 🍖
Tabemono. "Food."
In Japanese, tabemono literally means "eat"(tabe) "things"(mono), i.e. "things, which are to be eaten." Pretty straightforward, right?
Today, I want to explore the colorful side of food in Japan and Asia. What better way to do so than through photos of said "tabemono"?!
Spicy tuna from Korea. A gift from a family friend.
Kakigōri, Japanese shaved ice with flavoring.
Finely diced veggies (eggplant, cucumber, etc.) flavored with "dashi" (Japanese soup stock made from fish and kelp).
A sushi feast from the supermarket. Living right on the Sea of Japan has its perks, to be sure.
A nice, fat burger from "The Freshness Burger"! Delicious, if overpriced.
(Thanks as always for stopping by! If you missed the last Japan Photo Blog, "A Night Out," you can find it HERE.)
