Udon is a type of thick wheat-based noodle popular in Japanese cuisine. Udon is usually served hot as noodle soup in a mildly flavoured broth, served in kakejiru made of dashi, soy sauce, and mirin.

It is usually topped with thinly chopped scallions. Other common toppings include tempura,often prawn or kakiage (a type of mixed tempura fritter).

I had Kitsune udon which means “Fox udon”. Topped with Aburaage (sweetened deep-fried tofu pockets). Kitsune udon is one of my favorite food, and I love to choose topping as shirmp tempura.

Taiyaki is a Japanese fish-shaped cake which we’ve had introduced before.
The most common filling is red bean paste that is made from sweetened azuki beans. These are bite-size Taiyaki from “Sea Bream” Bluno.


They are very easy to eat, and you can’t stop eatting until you finish them.
They have chocolate and custard flavor except azuki beans.

Yotsuba&! (as known in Japanese “Yotsubato!”) is a very popular manga series by Kiyohiko Azuma. Not only Japanese girl, many people love them.

Yotsuba is a main character. She is 5 years old young girl. This story are depicted her daily summer holiday life with her father and neighborhoods.

Most of Japanese people love summer vacation at the best in a year, so I think it might be why this manga is attractive to Japanese.
Some of products born from Yotsuba&! are also released.

This is “Danbo” (cardboard robot). Danbo was represented on the story that Yotsuba and her friends made a robot with cardboard on summer homework (incruded in vol. 6).
Amazon co.jp reproduced Danbo with their delivery box. It’s funny idea.
