I ate Mt. Fuji!


My parents, Ian and I went to see Mt. Fuji during his trip to Japan. We were gonna look at the mountain by the lake near by but the thick fog was covering the mountain. We decided to drive up til the 5th step (go goume) and see it up close. We bought some souveniors and were about to head back and I found this bakery in the food court. They are selling Mt. Fuji melon pan or pinapple bun! As a big melon pan fan, I could not miss it. The bread is freshly baked in front of us and they sprinkled some cocoa powder on top, which made a good sweet-bitter contrast. Although the cashier chose crappy shaped ones, they were pretty tasty! When I get a chance to climb up Mt. Fuji, I will definitely try Mt. Fuji melon pan again:).

My melon pan journey continues...
