Hamakaze festival

Hi!!!
Did you enjoy holidays? Did you go to Hamakaze festival?
I enjoyed a lot!
This time, I’m going to introduce food I ate at Hamakaze festival. I had three different types of foods which are Putine, Curry and Rice and Rappoki. I want to show you what they are with photos.


1.    Rappoki (Korea)


This food is from Korea. You might have seen it, because Korean food is becoming very popular in Japan recently and we can go to Korean restaurant easier than before.
It looks reeeeeeally hot, isn’t it!? Actually it was really rich taste and soon after I ate it, I felt thirsty.lol I
It has rice cake and noodle. In Korean, rice cake is called “Toppoki” and you know that noodle is called “Ramen” so I think “Rappoki” is combined name “Toppoki” and “Ramen”.






2.    Green Curry (Thailand)



This curry was like soup. I’ve tried Thai curry before but I guess this Thai curry was authentic!
You can see it has eggplant, paprika(which is red one) and bamboo shoot. And rice was a little bit long so I think it is Thai rice.
The taste was creamy and it wasn’t spicy but mild. Once you tried it, you will like it!







3.    Putine (Canada)


I have never tried this one before and didn’t even know it when I first heard it. I thought it was like deserts but it wasn’t.lol. It was chips, tomato sauce and cheeses on it. It was soooooooo nice and I like it. I ate BBQ sauce one but sorry this photo is tomato sauce one. You also can see Canada dry next to Putine. This combination was really good! I rarely drink soda like Canada dry but it is the drink that best matches Putine.
Now I understand why my friend who used to live in Canada recommended it to me very confidently.lol Although ingredients are quite simple, it is yummmmmy! You must try it!





That is all I ate at festival. There are more delicious food that I couldn’t try. Hamakaze festival is the good place where we can enjoy and eat variety of international food. And they are all cooked by students. That’s why I felt like eating food at Hamakaze festival.
People who couldn’t come and came to this festival, I hope you enjoyed my blog and holidays!

mango

Hello, I’m Akiho. Please call me Aki.

Today I want to introduce my favorite fruit ”MANGO”, but before that I want to tell you my story of MANGO. As you know my blog’s mane is “mango”. The reason why I chose “mango” is just because I love mango! lol But it also brings to my mind the memory of traveling with my family. I went to Okinawa for the first time. I enjoyed a lot and had a really good time. During a trip, I ate a lot of Okinawa food and I was completely fascinated by MANGO. It was the greatest and sweetest fruit I’d ever eaten. Soon after I ate it, I came to love it! Even now when I think of it, I reeeally want to eat it.haha
Foods is important and necessary thing to live and get enough energy as we learn in a class, but sometime food brings our mind back to good or bad memories and also it could be a trigger to remind them. That is why I love it and chose “mango” as my blog’s title.
 See? It looks delicious, isn’t it!?
I’m crazy about mango but we can’t eat it through a whole year. So I often eat dried mango. If you like mango, you can easily get it at supermarkets.

Anyway I hope you enjoy my first blog. Thank you for reading!
