April 2024 – Sakura and Tea

Published on Author admin

This month I have a few cherry blossoms, a pagoda, and weird food lined up.

今月、桜とパゴダと風変わりな食べ物の写真があります。

Daishi Park

I headed down to Kawasaki to check out Daishi Park and one of its festivals. The park had some impressive buildings, although quite a few were under construction.

川崎に大師公園の祭を見に行きました。公園には面白い建物があるけれど工事中の建物もありました。

Sakura at Yoyogi Park

The cherry blossoms were two weeks late this year. I had scheduled a couple days off to try and shoot them with a new macro lens, but had to scramble at the end of the month due to the delay. Yoyogi Park’s Sakura Garden produced an impressive display.

今年桜の開花は二週間遅れました。新しいマクロレンズで撮影をするために2日間の休みを予定していたけれど、遅れたせいで月末に焦りました。代々木公園の桜公園の光景は素晴らしかったです。

Macha Restaurant

I ate at a restaurant whose theme was bitter-green-tea-infused recipes. The tea and cola tasted like all the sugar had been removed (although the apple and green tea was reportedly good.) The green tea tempura was nice but I could not identify many of the pieces. The green tea sausages tasted like regular sausages, although the problem might have been that my taste buds were numbed to the flavor by then. Finally, the scrambled eggs with green tea and miso sauce were pretty good.

抹茶メニューで話題のレストランで食事をしました。抹茶コーラは砂糖を全部抜いたみたいでした。(ところが抹茶りんごジュースはおいしいそうでした。)抹茶天ぷらは良かったけれどわからない具材がたくさんありました。抹茶ソーセージは普通のソーセージみたいだったけれど味蕾が味に無感覚に成ったかもしれません。最後の焼き卵と抹茶味噌ソースは美味しかったです。
