Foliage season started

Pacific sauries(秋刀魚, sanma) are in season now, but they are more expensive than usual. High sea temperature is preventing sauries from going southward.

Two annual Pacific saury festivals were held near Meguro Station on September 8 and 15. Miyako City in Iwate Prefecture provides free sauries to the festival on the 8th, and Kesennuma City in Miyagi Prefecture does them to the festival on the 15th. However, Miyako City couldn't provide sauries this year. Sauries from Hokkaido were provided. Kesennuma City managed to provide them to the festival.

The saury catch is increasing off Hokkaido, and its price is falling. So I enjoyed saury broiled with salt a few days ago.



The foliage season started on Mount Kuro(黒岳,Kuro-dake ), a lava dome in The Daisetsuzan volcanic group in Kamikawa-gun, Hokkaido. The summit of Mount Asahi(Asahi-dake), a stratovolcano in the group, was capped with snow on the 19th.
