By the time you read this the city’s parks should be turning pink with the color of cherry blossoms. On the cover of this month’s magazine is a shot taken from the ruins of Fukuoka Castle in Maizuru Park. Our gourmet page gets a bit more down-to-earth as we introduce Ikkaku Shokudo Kego which is well known for it’s tasty and affordable set meals. Udon Daigaku in Akasaka is our pick for noodles; try their meaty tsujikamon udon! The beer drinking season returns so if you haven't already checked out Bayern for their German beers and authentic European food and breads - go! Next, we introduce a great place for breakfast, lunch, and coffee in the Josui-dori area, “Saturday. And Ready”. Be sure to try their Lemon Cakes. Finally, we introduce Nishitetsu’s newest money saving pass, Marutto. You get a bus and train pass along with a coupon book full of savings. Our reporters see how far and wide they can get in a single day around Fukuoka. Lots of event information too! Check our website: http:
