"Komachi-en" is in Kushiro, and I went there alone. It's becoming difficult to earn a living wherever I go, so I've added various genres to my repertoire. I even tried searching for a butcher online, but couldn't find one. I hate wasting my time on fruitless efforts. Fortunately, Washo Market is nearby, and there aren't many shops that aren't listed. But, of course, I've found a place that's not listed. It's "Komachi-en." Parking costs extra if you stay for more than 30 minutes, so I know it's not listed here, but it's surprisingly expensive. Maybe it's because they say it's "homemade." Among the options, I'll go for the cheaper "tsu-bu." When I pointed at it and said, "I'll take this," the funny old man said, "You're too quick, let me explain!" So, I said, "Sure, please explain." He finished explaining, or so I thought, and at that moment, the old man seemed satisfied. The lady asked, "Is this for a souvenir?" and I replied, "I don't give things to people." She said, "Yeah, there's nothing to do. Eat it yourself." The old man was quite amusing. They brought out "mefun" on Sake Day, which is different. It came in a set of three. It's like tsu-bu cooked in oil. The seasoning is mild, but it's good. It's Kushiro, so there's no problem with the ingredients. It's tender, yet it has a good texture. It's a delicious snack. It disappeared in no time.
