I'm back in Hakata after actively exploring on the first day. I retrieved my luggage from the coin locker and headed towards the hotel. But before that, I stopped to pick up a drink to enjoy in my room. I got another bottle of "genmaicha" because it was part of a gift campaign. I drank a lot of water under the scorching sun today, so the taste of the tea was a nice change. Now, I'll take a short rest to prepare for the night ahead.

I bought the regional limited edition potato chips. They have a sweet and sour flavor, kind of like tartar sauce. They are bite-sized and perfect for a snack. The chicken nuggets are made from fresh chicken breast meat, giving them a natural meaty flavor. They are juicy and easy to eat in one bite, making them suitable for women and children. They are great for satisfying a small hunger, as a snack, or as an additional dish when you don't feel like cooking a main course.

I decided to have a "drinking session" before heading to NGSK to participate in the talk show tomorrow. The FamilyMart was so cute, and I was surprised by how many snack options they had. So, I bought a bunch of stuff: chu-hi, Kuro Kirishima shochu, fried chicken chips, and takana (for my parents at home). The chips were delicious! Thanks to that, my "drinking session" turned into a "lifetime memory"!

I visited in July 2018~ Hakata is so hot (*´∇｀) Seeing is believing (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)ﾝﾏ((°艸° *) Used FamiMa (^ー^) Bought a drink. I treated all the ingredients I met with the utmost respect, thank you for the meal ☺️

I came to Hakata, but due to gastroenteritis, my meals were restricted. I decided to stop by a convenience store on the way to the hotel, thinking that I could at least have onigiri. It was a bit far from the Shinkansen exit, but it was relatively easy to find from the central ticket gate of the local train. I heard that umeboshi is good for the stomach, so I bought two Nanko Ume onigiri (110 yen each) for dinner and breakfast the next day. The softly packed rice and plum were gentle on my stomach.

I'm hooked on FamilyMart's Spam Musubi. I bought one for a quick lunch on the go. I thought it was just the usual Spam, but it turned out to be spicy miso flavor. I tried it right away... Of course, there was no meat miso in the Spam, egg, and rice in the same ratio as in the picture. But still, the spicy meat miso had a good flavor and added a presence between the rice and Spam. It was delicious! If I had to be picky, maybe if the meat miso was also between the egg and rice, it would have an even stronger punch. It was delicious, so I'll probably retweet it soon.
