Just a couple of things……
The Nijiya Spring Festival:
I dropped by Nijiya to do some shopping. As I was walking towards the market I noticed a crowd.
There were several stands….even Okan had a stand.
There were corn dogs, yaki onigiri, and other stuff. But the two busiest stands, were the Okonomiyaki:
And of course the Takoyaki table.
Sorry to say, I didn't partake since I had already eaten lunch. But all is not lost, as the festival runs through 5pm today(04/18/09), and from 11am to 5pm tomorrow (Sunday, 04/19/09). So I may drop by if I get the chance.
I just wanted to post this in case anyone wanted to check this out.

We have a Beer Lao Sighting:
This time at Thuan Phat Market. Actually, I've known this for a couple of days. I had to make sure to buy my share…..
These are the 6-packs, and for some reason, I think the 21oz bottles taste better. Of course, I still think Beer Lao in Laos tastes better….but hey, you can't have everything.
If you want some, you better get there soon, there's not much left. I was told that they'll be carrying Beer Lao on "sort of a regular basis". Whatever that means….

I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weekend!
