I can't seem to stay away from this store . . . even though everything is so expensive there. I'm so glad that I went yesterday because they were giving away samples. Besides this meat there were tomato, melon (the $60 one), and little musubi samples . . . all veeeery delicious.
I actually went there to see if maybe they might've discounted this mochi yet 'cause I knew that the expiration date is coming up. Welllllll, not only had it not been discounted, but this is the last box they had. No, I didn't buy it.
I almost bought this Lemon Honey. The honey has Shikoku lemon in it and looked so good . . . but it was around $15 so I decided not to.
I did buy this kuromame. I wanted to buy it the last time I was there, but didn't. It was $4.50. It's good. I had to force myself to not eat the whole thing.
This pickled egglant was discounted 30%. I got it for $5.25.
I wasn't sure how to cut it. I think this way it looks pretty.
I also got this narazuke . . . $13.50. EXPENSIVE!!! But oishiiiiii.
So crunchy. Landon doesn't like it, but Wendell does.
Cute yah! In the back is some won bok that I salted to make into kim chee, but never got the kim chee base yet so been eating with just some shoyu.
I thought this shoyu looked intriguing. It says that it will make your eggs taste good. I wasn't sure if I was reading it right so I asked the guy there if the kanji said "tamago" (egg). He said yes. He said that they use it on top of tamago kake gohan (raw egg on rice). I bought a bottle. It was $6.25.
As soon as I got home I boiled some eggs. While it was still warm I poured some of the shoyu on top. IT WAS GOOOOOOOD!!!!! Even Wendell said that it was VERY good.
I almost bought some wagyu beef again. But I didn't. And now I wish that I did. And I don't even care for beef . . . normally. But OMG . . . BUTTAH.

j: that's cool. I was thinking of going but decide I wanted hele out of town more. I did go to Keeaumoku Store and they had kuri for only $.29, the one you showed in your pix. When I came home I found out why, the expiration date is in August. Can't beat that price! Nijiya had it a Japanese made one for $3.29 so I saved $3. I will check out J-store though I probably can only afford to look (and hopefully taste) -N
Ho, N, 29 cents! Whata bargain! They musta bought tons and tons of that kuri. I bought lots myself when it was 79 cents.
i am very very afraid to step foot in there ... ;o{
Oh my gosh. I am so curious about this store now. I should have checked it out today! Thanks for sharing. And sorry I didn't get to comment earlier, but the video of your butterfly was amazing! So did you let it go free?
Look so ono. I have to go check it out.
Didi, it's actually a pretty small store, so not too overwhelming.
Yah, Jenny, the butterfly is free. I worried about it a little bit when it was pouring rain.
You gotta check out da meat, Erick!
Hi Jalna! We're back from Hawaii! We stayed at my daughter for 4 days and flew to Big Island for a week. Because you mentioned this store before so while in Oahu we checked it out. Everything seem so expensive but it was fun! I know the storm(s) is coming in your way, be safe. And I hope you will be back soon.
Hey Akemi!!! I'm so glad you got to check it out. I agree . . . expensive, but fun.
