Adelaide's heating up again, over the last 2 days the temperature has been consisting >33 degrees. And it's making me really uncomfortable. It's like I don't want to be home because the whole apartment feels like an oven. Yeah, I could turn on the air con, but after turning on the air con for awhile I feel very cold, so I turn it off, and it becomes an oven again.
So I leave my house and try to get some fresh air, BUT there is no breeze on the streets either! And over the last 2 days for some weird reason I've been getting some urticaria; I don't know if because of the heat or because my skin is dry. Oh God, I've been scratching from am to pm.
And so over the last 2 days, I've really been looking forward to the cold; i.e my next ski trip in Jan.
Earlier this year I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to go skiing in Nozawa. I remember we were really having alot of troubles deciding which restaurants to go. www.nozawaholidays.com is pretty good; they have this free restaurant and bar guide, but what I really like is reading people's recommendation and seeing what they order when they're in a city because seriously, there's a limit to the number of meals we can eat a day.
Thru nozawaholiday's restaurant guide ( click) + word of mouth from our ryokan hosts we spent our first dinner at Daimon Soba
This is a family run restaurant of 3rd generation soba makers. The owner's son is a champion ski jumper by the way.
Nick's cold soba
My soba in hot broth. I usually go for the cold soba, but because of my night of terror the night before ( see post below) I decided it would be best if I eat something warm to help the tummy recover to almost 100% since we were gonna start skiing the next day. Can you imagine, up on the mountain, GOT NO TOILET LEH. IF NEED TO DIARRHOEA HOW?!
Very satisfying meal especially after being out in the cold, average price is 800yen. It's a small shop, so be prepared to wait ! We waited outside in the cold for 30 mins
