Japan Continued

  • Sep. 2nd, 2008 at 9:40 AM

The post from yesterday wasn`t finished. I had to leave the PC cluster because I got a strong cough due to the airconditioning. So I`m going to continue now....but soon I have to stop too because I have a meeting at 10...

So we went to the Japanese restaurant and we ate Sukiyaki...It was really interesting because we had to fry our food ourself.
First a pan was put on a small gas stove which was put in the middle of our table then we got tsuyu sauce and 2 plates with raw meat and vegetables.The fried food is diped in raw egg. It was really good :) In the end  you put soba noodles into pan and fry them in the soy sauce.
Afterwards we ate green tea ice cream which was the highlite of the evening because I`ve always wanted to try green tea ice cream. By the way green tea here in Japan tastes different then the one in Europe. It`s much more stronger and has a  cloudier colour. I love this kind of green tea. Wow as a tea freak I`m in tea heaven!....

The next morning me, Beejal, Saya (my tutor) and Hiro went shopping. It`s a bless that Saya has a car because all the other interntional students have to go by bike. XD
 I bought a bike! and a kettle. I`m so happy because of the bike but unfortunately I couldn`t use it till yesterday because I had a bad cold V.V
 
But before we went shopping we went to my lab to write down all the things Beej and I needed to buy. Everyone was sitting around us and reading curiously what we were  writing down.
As I already mentioned I had a cold and thus I wrote Ginger Tea on my list and everyone was puzzeled by ginger tea... because they did not expect a foreigner to drink something else than black tea or coke. There was even more of a surprise when they saw that we wanted a rice cooker. Saya said that Japanese people think that European people don`t eat rice but potatoes. Well she`s right in a way....but we are different XD
