More delicious Sendai foods! Tried sasa kamaboko, which is really tasty for surimi. Grilling it at the table was fun, and the charred outside was a nice contrast to the soft inside, which had a savory and slightly sweet flavor.

Also enjoyed some frozen sake with lemon and fried skewers. My favorite was either the salmon topped with roe and shiso or the mozzarella, tomato, and basil. For dessert, we tried another local specialty: zunda mochi! Incredibly soft and fresh mochi covered in sweetened edamame paste. It might sound strange but I loved it!
