Thanksgiving Lunch in Tsuwano

We've returned to the same restaurant where we had lunch a few weeks ago & although it's cold, we're having beer - to warm up! This time we were brought edamame (immature soybeans) to snack on. Yummy! And the packaged cloths were very hot - I love that in the winter!


We're sitting a little further down the bar this time, so instead of looking into the fresh sushi & sashimi display items, we're facing into a long aquarium. Through the blue curtains is the part of the kitchen where they do the frying and other stuff they don't have room for out here.


Looking through the glass you can see a sink area for the chefs to wash up and in the tank we only see one small, lonely crab.


Behind the bar are many bottles (different kinds of soy sauces?) and stacks of dishes. Each dish is made for a specific type of food. Nothing is ever random in Japan.


Our lunch sets come with fresh salad and hot soup.
