Tendon and ginger-fried pork (November 17th)

     One of my friends and I went to Hamanoi, which is my favorite food restaurant in Odori, November 12th. I was told this good restaurant by my senior and I sometimes go there by myself during lunch time. On this date, since I met my friend by chance, we decided to go to Hamanoi. This was my first time to eat Tendon (a bowl of rice topped with pieces of tempura dipped in a soy sauce broth.) Although this is Japanes traditional food, I am not so fond of it because most of tempura is so greasy. However, this restaurant catered so dilicious food. I should have eaten Tendon much more earlier, I thought. Furthermore, my senior told me to take me to Hamanoi together in near the future, we will be able to enjoy ourselves wiht good food and tasty alcohol. I am really looking forward to going there again wiht my senior.

     Next, I will talk about another food I ate on November 13th. I had my hair cut in this day and the hairdresser told me a good restaurant in Odori. The name of this restaurant is Takuma, and I did not know the name until I had heard by the hairdresser. This pictuer is pork fried with ginger and soy sauce, which is my favorite food. In addition to ginger-fried pork, I ordered a deep-fried pork cutlet. I ate a large amount of food, so I had really eaten enough.
     I hope to find another good restaurant in Odori.

made a presentation in SICE class (November 10th)

     On November 10th, Yoshie and I made a presentation in SICE class. Since we did not get accustomed to leading the class, we were really embarrassed at first. However, thanks to the help of other students, we managed to lead the class successfully, I think.
     Yoshie and I had decided to make a discuss about nuclear power plant existed in Japan in the SICE class, so we collected information through the books and the Internet. Although we knew a little about the nuclear power plants, we did not have enough knowledge to discuss the matter. Therefore, this was such a good opportunity to obtain some knowledge by searching a lot of sources. We Japanese depend about 30 percents of energy on nuclear power plants, but after the devastated earthquake and tsunami, we need to think about the alternative sources of energy, such as water power. fire power, solar power and so on. Another example is the geothermal power plant. In fact, Shizukuishi, where I live now, has this kind of power plants. In addition, you know since Japan has a large number of volcanoes, it is not so difficult to find geothermal power. However, there are also a lot of people who make living by the blessing of volcanoes. They rely their lives on hot spring. If the government decided to use the geothermal power in Japan, those who live in the hot spring regions would suffer from living. This is serious problem.
     What we have to do now is to think about the alternative energy. Moreover, I think we can depend our energy sources on the nuclear power plants.In that case, it is also necessary for the government to consider the safety of the neighborhood of such plants areas.

Fukudapan

     Fukudapan is the most famous bread sold only in Iwate Prefecture, and this bread was broadcasted in TV program a few days ago. This diary tells you what is Fukudapan.
     Have you heard of Fukudapan? This is a sweet bun sold only in Iwate Prefecture, and Fukudapan has a lot of taste, such as yogurt, chocolate, cream and so on. In addition, we can buy a deep-fried pork cutlet between slices of bread. I often bought Fukudapan when I was a high school student because we can buy one slice of bread within 150 yen or so. This is so reasonable for students, isn't it? For me, one of the best taste is "sweet bean paste and butter." I have eaten this taste since I was a elementary school student. Once you take a mouthful and you will find it very scrumptious. In this TV program, a man seems to hold the taste of "sweet bean paste and butter," but he says "a doughnut with a bean jam filling." I am glad that this man also likes  the taste of "sweet bean paste and butter." If you have a opportunity to eat Fukudapan, I strongly recommend that you sould eat this taste. Or, you will be able to find your favorite taste because Fukudapan gives you quite a few flavor.
     Between Iwate University and Morioka Station, there is the company of Fukudapan. You can buy bread whenever you want it.
