During the Golden Week (It’s a long holiday period in Japan from the end of April to the beginning of May), we visited our blog acquaintance in Chigasaki, Kanagawa. Dr. A always seems nice and pleasant with full of energy and fun. So, when she asked me, “When are you both planning to visit here?”, I wanted already going there! Like this, things have started and then we were on the way to Chigasaki from Ibaraki.
But alas! The Golden Week traffic was fiasco; usually it takes only 2.5 hours but on that particular holiday, it took us almost 6 hours to get there! Anyway, finally we made it without any problems. That was the most important thing, I would say.
Unfortunately, the weather was gleam with a bit dark clouds, but we had a great time outside on the terrace garden. We were having a BBQ party outside.
Barbequing duck pieces from France. It has been almost a year since we barbequed!
Colorful vegs on the grill, too. The fava beans were super yummy!
Of course, we had some appetizers with tiger prawns and French foire-gras with condiments and sauce.
Time to cut duck meat!
Also, some side dishes…
Dishing on the plate, waiting for the side dishes to come around.
A cute dog eyes on the superb pieces of “Sagagyu”(one of the Japanese beefs on the highest rank) on the grill.
Between the enjoyable conversation, I wandered off to see the beautiful yard flowering everywhere.
What a good time to share with all different generations! In fact, we really enjoyed the day there!
By the time we have a cheese platter, we all became friends. Didn’t I tell you before? I never met 4 people there including the hostess which kindly invited us at her beautiful place. Our generation gaps are about 60 years! But we didn’t feel them at all, which was amazing!
A great outside meal, full of interesting wines and an open-aired mesmerizing atmosphere by the sea; everything played its roll for us to enjoy fully.
Smelling a wonderful bouquet which the delightful young couple has brought. It was awesome, indeed. A piece of heaven for me!
