Yum! My favourite of your birthday celebrations so far. How was the Kina? We just got some this week too
What is Kina ?
More of a foodie experience but a very interesting sake tasting.
Sake is a new frontier for me. Challenging because I can't read kanji.
Sorry Kina is Māori for sea urchin.
Did you get to try any umeshu (plum wine)?

LOVE sea urchin 
And eel
No, didn’t try the umeshu
Will do so next visit.
I’m going to get some umi to make into a long summer drink with sugar syrup and soda

Trust my son and daughter-in-law who are visiting from Melbourne to come up with this
I’m a stick-in-the-mud who usually picks the same restaurants to go to each time

Nice birthday treats bro! 
Straight off the hook - can’t get fresher !my old man is getting a BCF gift card.
Well, I suppose that is DYI sushi?

BCF = Boating, Camping & Fishing Store
