From the official NHK website:
EETOKO
Enjoy culture and cuisine in your favorite city! ~ Ashiya City, Hyogo ~
Broadcast date: September 5, 2024
Ashiya City in Hyogo Prefecture is a residential area that developed from the Meiji period to the Showa period. Attracted by its abundant nature, merchants and cultural figures moved from Osaka and built a residential district. We will introduce the culture and gourmet food unique to Ashiya, such as a mansion designed by modern architecture master Frank Lloyd Wright, old stone public housing that houses a glass workshop, baumkuchen made with a recipe inherited from a Kobe store, minced cutlet made with plenty of Japanese black beef, and danjiri floats that have been passed down since the Edo period.
And with that statement, we're off!
We follow the ladies as they go from famous Ashiya spots to popular locale treats on this warm and sunny day!
Croquettes. Itadakimasu!
Apparently this town is somewhere near where Hikaru lives, so she takes the lead at several points, saying "You gotta try THIS place!" And of course Mako is game!
Sampling the delicacies....
...and even taking a peek behind the scenes to see how it's made!
Then it's off to arts and crafts...
And then going to the temple and checking out that aforementioned Danjiri Float...
Was a pleasant way to spent the afternoon, and I even felt like I had been walking along with the girls all day~
Would love to see more of these!

As I cannot comment on your Jdrama Bolg I just take the freedom to answer your "Where is the bridge/walkway/overpass" in japan :)
ReplyDeleteIt is called the 昭和通り銀座歩道橋(ときめき橋) Showadori ginza hodo Bridge. The nickname probably is why it is popular (or the other way round).
When I saw it I was sure I passed there once but first thought it might be at Ueno Station as it has also a lanrge Overpass. Luckiely you had a big hint in one picture. Even though Blurry you could guess that you can see the sign of an Hotel. The "Hotel Musse" was okay then even blurrier "Ginza Meitetsu" not so much, but I made a good guess :P From there it was easy to find it.
Give it a try in google maps :)
As always happy to see your jdrama posts :)
AHAHA, so it's a famous bridge in Ginza! Naruhodo!!! Looking it up on Google, lots of information about it, so interesting! Thanks for the info and comments!
