Miyajima part 3 - Still no coffee?, no schoolgirls and dinner!

All dressed up in Yukata, we went for dinner. And what a meal it was. Apparently dinner was being set up for us in a private dining hall, and our friend Kojima-San did the serving.

A beautifully set table

Spot the smallest one ;)

I think we all felt quite Japanese. Notice also the bags on the floor, serving as handbags.

Sashimi

Hotpot. "Soup" served at the table, with Miyajima oysters.

More seafood

Huge, fresh oysters. Nom!


Pickles!

Desert. Jelly desert. Oishii jelly desert!

No, Kawaii-San isn't drunk. He just struggles with certain textures.
The meal was fantastic. Miyajima is famed for it's oysters, and we got plenty of that. A first for many of the 7 samurai, but a great experience :)

The ryokan is most definitely recommended if you're going to Miyajima - And you are, at least once, because Miyajima is so close to heaven on earth it's ludicrous.
