Big in Japan

· 181 words · 1 minute read

Between Xmas and New Year we made a trip to Japan; only took twenty minutes to get there. Not the real Japan of course, a place called J-Park on the outskirts of Chonburi.

A collection of buildings in an assumed Japanese style, with water features and trees displaying suspiciously constant autumnal foliage; all designed to attract the happy snapper selfie brigade. There are shops and stalls selling mainly Japanese products, with a supermarket displaying all manner of interesting Japanese goodies. Then there are many restaurants, all offering Japanese food.

It’s a pleasant enough place and worth the trip just to pick up some treats from the supermarket. Follow that with a decent lunch and you have a half-day outing. Unfortunately the restaurant we went to served me the worst plate of sushi I have ever eaten (not the one in the photo below); but happy to go back another time to try somewhere else. Go during the week, I expect it is rammed at weekends.

Any dual pricing, non-Japanese style?
