KYUSHU 2013 (PART 5)

DAY 5
Finally a different style of breakfast served at the hotel!
We were given 3 choices. Japanese set, Sandwich set and American set.
My Aunt, Sis and Mom chose the sandwich set.
I obviously got the classic American breakfast, duh. Eggs and bacon > everything.
The croissant and toasts were perfect. Slap on some butter and you're good to go :)

MT. ASO + SNOW
We were warned that it'll be especially cold that day. Didn't know that it'd be THAT cold.
Once we got off the bus, the wind never gave chance.
The pavements were piled with snow and ice!
Tried the Aso milk and boy was it creamy!!! :')
The family took a cable car up to the mountains to catch a glimpse of the volcano while I stayed with Grandma at the cafe. Heard that the wind and sulphur were ridic up there!

SPECIAL BEEF + HORSE SASHIMI
Our tour group shared this box of special beef imported from Hokkaido. How do we know it's legit beef? The paper next to it is a certificate.
Loved da ramen :D
Loved the soft silky tofu dipped in sesame sauce.
Horse sashimi. Interesting taste but texture's like rubber. Not a fan.
The tour guide skipped his lunch to cook the special beef for us and then rushed a bowl of ramen before leaving. He's a tour guide who knows how to cook. As a matter of fact, he cooks for his family when he's on break. So nice :)
SPECIAL BEEF TASTED EXTREMELY SPECIAL AND FATTY AND RICH.
I will never forget the taste T_T

SAMURAI VILLAGE OF SOME SORT
Went to visit a place where Samurais used to live.
Saw a number of Japanese children there and they were just released from school.
Carrying their little backpack, a file and a neatly packed lunchbox while chatting heartily with their buddy while walking down the slope. Such a cute scene :)
They were so polite!!! I was observing them and while they passed by they would greet "Konnichiwa!"
Mt. Fuji!

BEST DINNER EVER
All my favourite foods combined in one set.
Shabu shabu + tempura + beef + sashimi + bbq pork :')
Went to sleep with an extremely full and happy stomach!

Can't wait for ya'll to read part 6, the finale!
STAY TUNED.

Christmas celebration with the family tomorrow + seeing my boo in what seems like forever! Can't wait.... No supper tonight to prepare space for all the meat I'm going to consume tomorrow.

Hope you've been having a great December.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE EVE 
EVERYONE <:o font="">

YAHAVA KOFFEEWORKS + ROUNDHOUSE PIZZA, BAR, & GRILL

Image
Hi guys!!!!! AS PROMISED, HERE'S A FOOD POST TO MAKE YOU HUNGRY. The bestie and I went to a cafe for tea followed by a scrumptious dinner back in July... And here are the photos and details. YAHAVA KOFFEEWORKS Since we were gonna have a pretty full dinner, E and I shared a cuppa latte and scone. I like how they serve their coffee in a ceramic cup with a colourful rubber holder. Different from those cups with a handle. The coffee was rich and well blended. Don't mind the ruined top of the rosetta latte art, accidentally scraped it. It was perf when it came!!! Raisin scone served with jam and butter, just the way I like it. It was good just that it would be better if it were to be a little more moist! E shooting me shooting her with a brand new camera TEEHEE. Because of the insanely hot weather, we then took a cab to Turf City!!!!! Obviously we had to walk around Pasarbella Farmer's Market since we were there. My fav shop in PFM :') ...

so my mind was completely shut off yesterday and i didn't feel like talking to anybody. neither do i feel like today but i guess that won't do and i won't be able to hide from the world forever. i am weird and i know that. i think i suffer from Anthropophobia. go search the dictionary. quoted from Edmunds' facebook, i think i'm an "introverted extrovert". and i've decided not to keep up with the 30-day challenge of Justin Bieber because i've been enlightened. i find no point in doing so cause its not as if he'll see it. and i've never even met him in person before and it'll be almost impossible to complete answering it. i'm starting to doubt myself even. maybe i should stop being sucha Justin Bieber fanatic because so many girls are going gaga over him and that irks me. maybe what Hana said was right, i should listen to more intellectual and inspirational songs. JB's songs make me half happy half sad, prolly cause it brings me ...
