Posted by chiz on August 26, 2009

Today’s my snack is “Dojo Sukui Manju”( scooping loach steamed white bean paste bun)
Do-man is a shortened form of Dojo Sukui Manju.
It’s very cute Japanese sweets, but little hard to explain about this name actually….
Dojo Sukui- scooping loach is very classic party dance for making guests laugh in Japan. Dojo Sukui Dance

I had a dinner with Ms. Matsumoto of Nakayama foods and her friends last night at Sakagura. It was our first meeting for us. She found me on some website because she is also Kiki-sake-shi(certified sake sommelier by Sake Service Institute)! It might have been seemed like we could talk about sake forever!
I decided traveling Shimane prefecture for next Japan trip!! I’ve never been there yet, and I got cool Kiki-sake-shi lady friend of Shimane, why don’t I go visit her?? Can not wait~~~!!
