ITO Japan Sunday Market!

Listening from the window of our tatami room... our attention was caught by much shouting and other interesting sounds from just downstream along the river.  Of course... we had to bestir ourselves and go see what was going on.  Thank goodness we did!  The noise and crowds were home to the ITO Sunday market!  OMG... somehow these wonderfully polite and quiet people knew a fantastic food vendors market would be just what the doctor ordered for thier visiting Canadians!

Fire roasted fish on a stick... is there much better in Sarah's world?!?

Squid ink noodles... amazing everywhere in the world you can get it!

Smoked duck heated and the fat crisped with a torch!

A hot dog bun carrier for 'desserty' nutty crunchy slightly sweet paste...
