Memo
[Chawan-mushi]
Chawan-mushi can be found all over Japan but I am told that particularly in Kyoto it is one of the foods of choice for guests. Me being a guest at many students houses on this journey I have been delighted to have Chawan-mush just a few times.

[Uji Green Tea]
Uji tea is now a very famous green tea nationwide. It is said to be one of the origins of the Japanese traditional tea ceremony.

How was it?
[Chawan-mushi]
It was good. It's always exciting to eat chawan-mushi because you never know what exactly is in it. You have to dig in your spoon and take a bite to find out. Still almost every bite is different.

[Uji Green Tea]
Bitter as all good green teas are. I'm no connoseur of green tea but it tasted quite good to me.
