A huge thank you to everyone who joined us! 👏
◤ Soma Haragama Fishing Port Tour & Surf Clam Shucking Experience ◢
Guided by Mr. Kikuchi, the captain of the Seishomaru and a fisherman at Soma Haragama Fishing Port, we toured the port and tried our hand at shucking surf clams!
◤ An Extraordinary Lunch at the Seaside Outdoor Dining ◢
We set up our venue in the garden of Nagisaryo Mojishima, overlooking Mojishima Island in Matsukawaura.
Chef Naoki Sakawaki of Nagisaryo Mojishima and Chef Aoyagi of Aoyagi served exquisite dishes featuring seasonal Joban-mono and other prized ingredients from Fukushima Prefecture 😋🍴
The dishes were paired with Fukushima sake and wine 🍶🍷
Everyone enjoyed chatting with the chefs and producers while dining!
