Brit Abroad

I'd like to pretend that I live entirely on things like raw octopus in wasabi and daikon and natto, but I will confess that I thoroughly enjoyed a plate of good old beans on toast today. It was particularly exciting because we have never seen baked beans in the shops here. I actually haven't had this meal in a YEAR AND A HALF! We have recently found a way to get hold of these luxury items for 420 yen a tin (about 1.80 in UK pounds) from a guy who calls himself "The Meat Guy" and delivers throughout Japan. We also ordered a turkey and a leg of lamb from him. Everything arrived frozen - including the tins of beans, but they tasted great.




Taking photos of food is a particularly Japanese thing. I guess I am assimilating despite the beans on toast...
