自分を労うための昼食。今日は、2 か国で申告義務のある外国人として、毎年恒例の確定申告という長い冒険の最初のハードルを乗り越えました。その後、近くの鹿肉専門ジビエレストランでお祝いしました。鹿肉のミネストローネとライ麦パン、自家製シフォンケーキを少し食べ、自家製ハーブティーをいただきました。おいしいポテトサラダはサービスでした。また来ます。

"A taxing lunch." Today I jumped over the first hurdle in my long annual adventure of filing taxes as an expat. Afterwards I went to celebrate at a nearby restaurant that specializes in venison. I tried their venison minestrone with some rye bread and a small slice of their homemade chiffon cake all washed down with a tasty house herbal tea. They gifted me a taste of their wonderful potato salad. "I'll be back" (famous last words of Douglas McArthur).

Ramen shop of yesteryear. Sign reads “Rokumonsen Ramen. Sets. Ramen. Curry.” The faded red circular sign to the left reads “Peacock Supermarket”— in English (how modern).
The name of the ramen shop refers to the six coins that constitute the symbol of the Sanada Clan from the Warring States Period of Japan. #UedaCity #NaganoPrefecture #japan
A red pine. In the distance, the miso factory in the neighborhood loading a truck with a big outgoing shipment.

Lunch plates at Hasumi Farms. The plate on the left featured a slice of quiche. The one on the right some fermented foods: a hamburger with miso wine sauce and chicken ham made with sake leavings. With a glass of Chardonnay from their vineyard and homemade apple juice. Total: 2,400 Yen for all.
