Miso Soup School Opens in Nirasaki
Why does this guy look so happy? All he's doing is dishing out some miso soup, right? Well, this is actually a specialty miso soup cafe in Nirasaki, Yamanashi prefecture, where a non-profit Miso Soup School was opened recently. For 100 yen, you can get a bowl of soup with fresh vegetables and serious pork. The region has historical ties to miso soup, which was considered battlefield food during the Sengoku Period, when battles were fought there.
Must be yummy. I have no idea where Nirasaki is but if anyone goes and tries a bowl, please let me know how it was.
I love Miso Soup! I don't know if I make it right though, but my daughter likes it so I guess it's okay. :)

Nirasaki is on the Chuo line west of Kofu, Yamanashi.
