Welcome to the Republic of Qinghai Island!

Welcome to united states of Omijima!

On Monday, November 12, 2018, 11 guests from all the way from California, USA, came to the Republic of Qinghai Island, Qinghai Island, Nagato City.

The group, who usually enjoy "sake" while traveling, have now experienced "how to handle fish".

A nice welcome board welcomes you at the entrance.

Greetings by the King. Hearing about the history and culture of Qinghai Island.

At first, the students receive a lecture on how to handle the fish. They are very interested in "dismantling" the fish for the first time.

Lecture by the King. The smear bag of squid is being carefully removed.

Finally, each person experiences it for themselves. The use of the blade and the way of cutting are all new to me.

Cut carefully according to the lecture.

The first self-made "squid sashimi" and "hamachi" platter was completed!

Beautifully decorated with seasonal flowers and yuzukichi.

The finished product is served together. Local ingredients are also used for entertaining.

Since they usually enjoy "Japanese SAKE", it must have been very special for them to drink together with sashimi that they made themselves.
The leg part of the squid was BBQed, and we also tasted "turban shell" and "yakitori" together.

It was a great experience for them to experience the unique Japanese way of eating and culture through foodstuffs.

It was a great experience for us as well.　
Nagato is calling...　We are looking forward to welcoming you again.
