One of things I really wanted to do while we are in Japan is to live on Fish!

My mum is a traditional mum and used to feed me fish for every meal.  Grilled fish for breakfast with rice, Nato (fermented soybeans,  aka stinky sticky beans) Miso soup and some vegetable.  Another type of grilled fish for Obentou (lunch box) then Fresh Sashimi (raw fish) for dinner

So I miss fresh fish everyday….  Luckily I had lovely Morrison’s just around the corner and used to get lots of different kind of fresh ones from the fish counter but I never knew which one I could eat raw.

It took only a second for Oscar to love small fish (with head) for snack and I am on fish fiesta!  Also Takoyaki (savory pancake with Octopus) is the best snack after a few drinks just like Kebab for English students?!

Oscar loves snacking on little fish

Lovely Takoyaki!

How I love sashimi...

I don’t really eat dairy products but as long as I keep eating fish, it should cover my calcium requirements. I wonder how other people who don’t eat much dairy get their calcium?
