Feeling at home

A laid back weekend in Koriyama included great food, rice field watching, new company, lots of shopping, lots of blog updating and hours of sunshine and strong wind.





We discovered a couple of new eateries. A ramen restaurant with modern style decor and good noodles, a cool restaurant with bamboo all over the place, plates decorated with orchids, modern food from asian countries and a waiter that spoke really good English, and, with a japanese/australian couple we had met earlier that evening we went to a kind of french wine bar. Yep, we have everything in Koriyama, We sure do :)

No kidding, it was a great weekend where we somehow for the first time felt we belong in Koriyama. This is our home now and why not?

P.S. We also went to a really good kaiten-sushi... but as we have already been there a couple of times before it does not really count in this post.
A kaiten is a kind of fast food sushi place, where tiny plates of sushi circulate around in the restaurant on a conveyer belt. Whatever comes by on the belt you like, you just take. When you are full the waiter will count your stable of empty plates and you pay. Our record so far is 22 plates.
