A "BIG" new supermarket opens in Fukuoka






Name of the new supermarket is "Big"! Indeed it is really big and opened yesterday amid a rising Covid-19 in Japan.
We were there at 8.45 am but the place was very crowded and the parking area was full. We had to park our car 200m away in another carpark and walked to Big.
There were many discounted fruits, vegetables, fish, meat etc. on its opening day. We bought fish which was so fresh (1 kg at S$13) that we could have it as sashimi. The 8 kg watermelon was Yen 983 Yen (S$13) and we bought 2. In the night,we visited Big again and got ourselves some futomaki, yakisoba, okonomiyaki etc at a hefty 50% discount for supper and the next day's breakfast.
It looks like Big is going to be one of our favorite supermarkets.

Bara chirashi and futomaki




Bara chirashi don is a dish of pieces of sashimi over cooked vinegar rice. Futomaki is also known as "fat sushi roll" or more commonly known as "California roll".
We bought them from a supermarket. They are delicious, appetising and fresh too. They are not expensive in Japan because they easily available in konbini (convenient store) and supermarket.
Each bowl cost 400 Yen which is about S$5. The futomaki is cheaper and is $4.
