    Hiroshima Pref. Fukuyamashi Tomochou Tomo 595
    Famous for its sea bream fishing nets, Tomonoura in Fukuyama City, Hiroshima Prefecture is where you can find Tomo Higoya, a shop which specializes in sea bream miso. The shop opened in 2013 in an old Edo period merchant house. The sea bream miso is a local traditional dish made by simmering sea bream from Setouchi with locally produced miso and mirin, sake, and soy sauce, etc. The smell of Japanese peppers in the miso arouses a taste that can be enjoyed in various ways such as with rice, or eaten together with a glass of sake, or with ochazuke (boiled rice with tea). They have three kinds of flavors, red, white and sesame. Other things the shop sells include rolled sushi with sea bream miso and laver boiled in soy sauce.

    夫婦でサンドウィッチ2個オーダー。 店が用意した外のテーブルで食べるようと した時、上空から来たトビに女房のサンドウィッチは攫われて… お店の方は見て見ぬふり…残骸を片付けてその場を離れようとしたら、、店員さんはそそくさとテーブルを店内に片付けてましたw

    Hiroshima Fukuyama-shi Motomachi 1-1

    福山駅から直ぐ近くの場所で、駅利用者からすれば便利な立地と云えそうでした。岡山地盤の百貨店ですが、地元に根差して営業しているようでしたが、訪問した平日午后の時間帯は閑散とした店内で、郊外型のショッピングモールに太刀打ちするのは厳しそうに感じました。

    Hiroshima Pref. Fukuyamashi Tomochou Ushiroji 651

    鞆の浦にバスで行く途中で車窓から見えたので近くで食事をしたついでに来てみました。自転車を借りていたので来ましたが、徒歩では鞆の浦の常夜燈あたりからは遠いと思います。基本的にはドライブの人の立ち寄り場所だと思いました。バスツアーの立ち寄り場所のようなところかなと思いました。新幹線とバス利用の旅行だったので荷物になるので購入はあきらめましたが、車で1時間ちょっとぐらいの日帰り旅行なら便利な場所かなと思...

Hiroshima Areas

There is more than meets the eye awaiting any Hiroshima-bound traveler. Kicking off in Hiroshima city, the Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima Castle, and Shukkeien Garden offer a couple of days of exploring; however, the real beauty lies along the southern coast of the prefecture. There, a series of islands spreads across the Seto Inland Sea: from the mysterious sea-submerged Great Torii Gate at Miyajima Island to the first half of the islands that connect Honshu to Shikoku via six spectacular suspension bridges.
