Blog #6: Seafood bowl

Hi! This is Chieko Yokobori. I'll talk about seafood bowl called kaisen-don in Japanese. It is vinegared rice topped with raw fish in a bowl. The ingredients of seafood bowl are mainly tuna, salmon, scallop, shrimp, octopus, squid, and seasoned sea urchin eggs and so on. It looks attractive because of colorful ingredients, but they are luxury food, so the price of seafood bowl is not cheap. I think this is eaten in celebration of special event, such as the New Year. The seafood bowl is very delicious. I have eaten seafood bowl many times from my childhood. I like salmon very much! While some people dip raw fish in soy sauce, I pour soy sauce on the seafood bowl when I eat it. I think hot green tea is the best suitable for seafood bowl.
This is the seafood bowl which I ate.

I love Japanese food because it is delicious and healthy. Tsukiji is the wholesale market and a lot of fresh fish and shell are sent from all over Japan to there. I want to eat seafood bowl there some time.

She is my favorite songer, BENI. Her voice is very beautiful! When I listen to her song, I can relax.

This is one of the best songs of her cover album.
