We had a one-day trip to Awaji Island crossing the world longest cable suspension bridge called ‘the Akashi-kaikyo brige’. My father took us to the hotel called “Umemaru/うめ丸” where you can take only lunch in the Japanese style room and take a hot-spring spa, too. The Umemaru hotel has the cource meal of a sea bream which is one of the famous local products of Awaji-island.
Let's go!!
Gross? No! It’s the freshest phase of seafood since it’s still alive!!!! If you are shocked with sashimi with its head, you must be sick when you see the video I put on below. So, you don’t watch it. However, this style of sashimi is called as ‘Ike-zukuri’ and is supposed to be very special. All of us were excited with joy seeing its tail was jerking, except my son. He lost his appetite.(My daughter was poking it cheerfully! oh my..)
They were baked and then steamed. Very soft and juicy.
The thinner type of sashimi called 'Usu-zukuri'
Sazae
Tempura. That shrimp was SO delicious!
The simmered dish of its head and tail is called 'Ara-daki'
The room where we stayed in
You can take a hot spring upwels from under ground of the hotel.
Now, are you ready for the still living sashimi vedio??
