Dinner at Sanzoku - "Chicken Shack" 4/16/11

It's Spring Break and we've stopped at Panda - a great recycle shop on Hwy 15 near Iwakuni, to see what's for sale today. And since we're about half-way, we decided to continue on to the famous Chicken Shack restaurant for dinner. This is a "must-see" for newcomers & tourists. And a great place to get grilled chicken on a stick - the house specialty - as well as other fabulous dishes. Colorful carp banners fly outside in anticipation of upcoming Golden Week holidays.


A small bridge between outside eating areas is flanked by large wooden gods.

Enjoying the fire that keeps us (and our tea) warm! It's usually much warmer than this during Spring Break!


Sakura (cherry) petals among the stepping stones as we walk around after dinner.

We've been here many times over the years & there are lots more pictures of Sanzoku on our blog - MORE HERE!
