Dropped our bags at the hotel and we went to visit Akita Sakura Festival which was nearby. Did not eat anything though since we were still full from our late lunch (that jumbo prawns). I noticed that many Akita food stalls sold potato dishes ( either its the whole potato or fries, even the fries had different taste and varieties). I hardly seen or never seen potato stall in Aomori, Hachinohe and Hirosaki. Seem to be Akita speciality? Everywhere we walked, beauties were all around, be it school girls, office ladies, with families... 70% of them have good complexion, pretty eyes and sharp noses... If I am a guy, I be in heaven haha!
For dinner, we had to choose between a nice, cosy western restaurant and typical Japanese style that served the Akita famous dish, oyakodon (egg with meat and onions on the rice). Its actually a simple dish that you can eat anywhere and make it easily at home. Glad we chose oyakodon in the end, it was amazing! No way we can ever cook it at home. The egg has such rich and thick texture and meat was juicy.
