SUIKO SUSHI
For more than 10 years, Suiko Sushi has offered sushi made from locally-sourced seafood, with a focus on providing seasonal delights. Owner Motohide Midorikawa, a veteran sushi chef, selects the best ingredients from the fish market every morning. From the counter, he can easily communicate with the customers and his staff as he gently crafts sushi. The prices are what you’d expect from a pro, and gourmands will notice his deft technique from the first bite. Right now, aji (horse mackerel) is in season, and you can also enjoy fresh tuna caught near Iki island.
스이코즈시
하카타의 번화가에서 10년 이상 영업해 온 스이코 즈 시에서는 근 해에서 잡은 신선한 해산물을 중심으로 후쿠오카의 제철 식자재를 맛볼 수 있다. 오너 미즈시마씨는 매일 아침 직접 시장을 찾아 식자재를 엄선한 뒤 각각의 특징에 맞춰 정성껏 조리한다. 하나씩 쥐여 주는 초밥에서 식자재를 엄선하는 안목과 칼을 쓰는 솜씨, 초밥을 쥐는 기술을 느낄 수 있을 것이다. 이맘때쯤에는 신선하지 않으면 생으로는 먹을 수 없는 전갱이가 제철이며 이키에서 잡힌 200kg급 참치 등 묵직한 맛이 느껴지는 초밥을 즐길 수 있다.
醉虎壽司
日本宴席的主角，大概就是壽司了。在博多繁華街上營業 10 年以上的「醉虎壽司」 ，以福 岡近海當季海鮮和親民價格取勝。將大半人生奉獻給壽司的店長水鳥川元秀先生，每早親自 前往市場挑選食材，依其特色謹慎的調理 ；含入口的瞬間，就能體會對於食材的用心以及刀 工技術，所帶出的一陣陣和諧食感。在這個季節裡，能夠享用必須極新鮮食用的鯵魚以及在 壹岐島補獲的兩百 KG 級鮪魚等讓你耳目一新的壽司種類。

MURATA AKASAKA KEYAKI-DORI
Murata, one of the city’s better known purveyors of soba, opened up its second shop on the chic Keyaki-dori Ave. in Akasaka this April. The shop is headed up by second generation owner Kiyohisa Murata. After honing his chops at famous soba shops in the Kansai and Kanto regions, he returned to Fukuoka to serve up delicious noodles and help spread “soba culture.” The shop offers three kinds of soba: mori soba, a bouncy noodle made from 100% finely ground soba flour, the highly aromatic inaka soba, and futogiri soba, a hearty soup noodle made from 80% buckwheat flour and 20% wheat flour. Prepared to bring the most out of the ingredients, each kind of soba affords the customer a different taste experience as jazz from the JBL speakers plays in the background. There are also many sides to choose from, so you can stop by for lunch, or at night for a drink and a bowl of noodles to cap of the night—in true Fukuoka style.
蕎麥 MURATA 赤坂櫸樹街店
福岡代表性的蕎麥麵店之一的 「MURATA」 的 2 號 分 店， 在 2018 年 4 月於櫸樹街開店。曾 在蕎麥名店「土山人」裡磨練 手藝的村田清久先生，除了能 做出美味的蕎麥麵外，更是位想發揚蕎麥文化的新秀蕎麥達人。店內有以純細磨蕎麥粉製作 的招牌蕎麥麵，還有特別重視喉感，帶點麥殼，以粗磨的方式帶出風味的「田舍」 ； 以及以 8： 2 的比例混合小麥粉而成的「粗麵條蕎麥」等三種選擇，搭配冷沾汁或蕎麥高湯，更能凸顯 出各自的不同特性。這裡白天夜晚都備有豐富的佐菜菜單，一邊聽著爵士樂，在以常滑燒為 餐皿的店內，感受日本的「粹」吧！
후쿠오카를 대표하는 메밀국수 가게 중 한 곳인 무라타의 2호점. 부드러운 목 넘김을 위해 잘게 분쇄한 메밀가루 100%로 반죽한 모리, 메밀 열매를 껍질째로 굵게 분 쇄 해 풍 미가 좋 은 이나카, 따 뜻한 국물과 잘 어울리도록 메밀가루와 밀가루를 8 : 2 비율로 섞은 반죽을 굵직하게 뽑아낸 후토기리 등 총 3가지 면을 각각의 개성에 맞춰 차가운 국물, 메밀국수 장국 등과 조합해 즐길 수 있다. 런치와 디너 모두 사이드 메뉴도 다양하게 제공하고 있어 술 한 잔과 함께 가볍게 에피타이저를 몇 가지 맛본 뒤 메밀국수로 마무리하는 것도 좋을 것이다. JBL 스피커에서 흘러나오는 차분한 재즈와 토코나메 도자기 등 곳곳에서 느껴지는 무라타만의 센스에서 일본의 멋을 느껴보시길.

IKI ISLAND SUMMER ADVENTURE! Just 70 minutes by hydrofoil from Fukuoka
IT’S THE BEACHES!
Any time of year is a good time to visit Iki, but it’s summer, so let’s hit the beaches, and Iki has some of the best in Kyushu. And by best we don’t just mean beautiful, but the sand, made from shells, not coral, is silky smooth and easy on the feet. Speaking of shells, Iki’s beaches are also a treasure trove for shell collectors. With more than thirty beaches to choose, whether you're into swimming, kayaking, SUP or snorkeling, Iki has you covered!
ZIPPING AROUND IKI
Iki is about the size of Liechtenstein, and if you were to drive around the island it would take about two hours. But there’s a better way to get around - the Iki Chari electric-assisted bicycles! We were amazed at how effortlessly they climbed hills, even with carriers filled with luggage. With a fully charged battery you can travel from 28 to 176 km (depending on the model). Enjoy the sights, sounds and scents of Iki and get a little exercise in without breaking a sweat. • Available at Gonoura, Ashibe and Indoji port ferry terminals • 9:00~17:00, 4 hours ¥1,000, 8 hours ¥2,000, 16 hours ¥2,500, etc. www.fukuoka-now.com | 13
travel
TATSUNOSHIMA SIGHTSEEING CRUISE
Iki is already very remote, but for those who want to really get away from it all, we recommend spending a few hours on the uninhabited island of Tatsunoshima. Its spectacular rock formations, sparkling sandy beaches and crystal clear waters are legendary, and for an impressive view be sure to climb up the Jagatani Cliff. • Tatsunoshima Sightseeing Cruise (Mar. ~11/30) • Cruise only (approx. 40 min.): adult ¥1,500, child ¥750, cruise + landing: adult ¥2,000, child ¥1,000
NO TENT? GO GLAMPING!
Like most people, we went to Iki to see and experience beautiful nature. So when we heard that glamping (glamorous camping) was offered on Nishikihama Beach, we were all in! The sturdy tents were set up on wood decking, shaded by pines trees and fitted with beds and even electricity. Showers and toilets are just steps away. But the best part was waking up to a beach to ourselves and a magnificent sunrise followed by a full breakfast served on our private deck. Glamorous indeed! Glam Beach: standard tent (up to 2 persons) ¥21,600~/person, etc. 14 | Fukuoka Now | #235 | July 2018
travel MATT RECOMMENDS!
Matt Sueda was born in Hawaii and has lived on Iki since August 2017, where he works as the coordinator for international relations at the city hall. Exploring the island has become a passion!
“Accessibility to Fukuoka is great, and yet Iki feels worlds away from the bustle of the city. The air is clean, the 30+ beaches here are the nicest I’ve ever been to, and the quality of the locally sourced food is top notch. There are many opportunities for visitors to engage with Iki people and immerse themselves in the unique local culture. Here are some of my recommendations.”

YUZU KOSHO PASTE
This zesty condiment is made from Iki’s aromatic yuzu citrus peel, chili peppers, and salt, which are aged to sharpen the flavors. Yuzu kosho is used as a condiment for hot pot dishes, sashimi, natto, and more. A little goes a long way, so a small bottle makes an ideal souvenir to share with friends.
SHOCHU TOUR
After all the cycling, sightseeing and frolicking on beaches, we deserved a drink! Iki, as it turns out, is the birthplace of mugi-shochu (barley distilled liquor). As far back as the 16th century, locals began using barley to produce shochu. Today there are seven breweries on the island and many offer distillery tours. Not only did we learn about the history and processes, but we enjoyed some free tasting and bought some shochu not available elsewhere. • Iki no Hana Distillery • Open 9:00-17:00 (tours by appointment)

IKI BEEF
Locally raised calves have a national reputation in the Japanese black cattle “Kuroge Wagyu” market; they are known for the excellent quality and tenderness of their meat. Cows are raised on mineral-rich pastures created in the island’s salty sea breeze, which is said to be one of the keys to the deliciousness of Iki beef.

With jars of homemade liqueurs lining the counter, Citadel, which opened last April and is fast becoming another Daimyo hot spot, looks like a science lab at first glance, but its trademark is coffee cocktails. Owner Yoshimitsu Obara offers around 40 cocktails made with an original blend of light roasted coffee beans; the subtle flavor won’t overpower the other ingredients, even citrus. Try the rich espresso spumoni or a refreshing cold brew coffee cocktail. With summer in the air, we recommend the mint infused coffee mojito. If you get peckish, try the homemade sweets.

This April, Yame Miryokuen, a cooperative of five green tea farmers, opened its own cafe in Otemon, making it one of the few cafes in the city that serves up high-grade green tea direct from Yame. For a classic cup of tea, try the sencha, the most common kind of green tea. It can be served hot or cold, with the former exuding a gentle bitterness and the latter a slightly sweeter taste. For a real treat, we recommend the original matcha (powdered green tea), which you can drink or enjoy in sweets. The cafe is an ideal place to learn about Yame’s food and tea culture.

THE NEW UNZEN KYUSHU HOTEL LUXURY HOT SPRING
Traditional meets contemporary in a very special location
Text and photos by Nick Szasz
Kyushu Island is famous for its excellent hot springs, and last week my wife and I revisited one of our favorite areas for onsen: Unzen, Nagasaki Prefecture. Some 800 meters above sea level, the quiet village lies within Unzen-Amakusa National Park, one of the oldest of its kind in Japan. Manoeuvring up the steep, twisty road is 20 | Fukuoka Now | #235 | July 2018

more than worth it for the spectacular views and plentiful nature. We were invited to spend a night at the recently renovated Unzen Kyushu Hotel, a historic property that first welcomed Japanese and overseas guests in 1917. A century on and the hotel’s location remains as impressive as ever: it sits literally on top of the jigoku (‘hells’), a hot spring field of barren rock pierced by vents that billow steam. Yes, the smell of sulphur pervades, but like the area’s silky-smooth spring waters, the hot, pungent air is all part of the organic therapy that people travel from afar to experience here. The hotel’s renovation was a long time in the making, the result of careful planning by the fourth generation of proprietors, Akinobu Shichijo and his www.fukuoka-now.com | 21

wife. The result is a mix of old and new, contemporary comforts blended with traditional aesthetics and service, as becomes clear within minutes of arrival. Unlike in a ryokan, here it is shoes-on, and guests are seated in chairs (not on tatami) for the welcome cup of tea and a sweet. This tradition, too, comes with a twist: the hotel serves a mix of locally sourced,
organic herbal and green tea, along with a tiny vegan doughnut. The hotel offers several room options, including four detached villas. Each room has a private ensuite bath and faces onto the jigoku, offering every guest what is hands down the best view in all of Unzen. From our room, on the third of six floors with huge windows and a sizeable patio complete with sofa, it was hard to tear our eyes away. Inside, the room was furnished comfortably and with just the right conveniences, stripped of unnecessary electronics or gadgets. Even the room key was an old-fashioned metal affair, not a slippery piece of plastic. Meanwhile the bath was large enough 22 | Fukuoka Now | #235 | July 2018

for my lanky North American body with space to spare, and controlling the temperature was easy – crucial if you plan to spend hours soaking. Heading to the large dining room, located in an adjacent building and decorated with period chandeliers, furniture and carpets, reminded us of how generations before us must have spent their vacations here. Dinner was several courses of Japanese-European dishes made with local, seasonal ingredients, each perfectly proportioned and leaving us anticipating what would come next. For breakfast, we were offered a choice of Western or Japanese food and went for one of each – of course! Before or after dinner, guests can enjoy complimentary drinks (alcohol included) under the sunshades on a spacious outdoor patio on the second floor of the main building. A rooftop lounge was still under construction when we visited, but to judge from the views we glimpsed from up top, it will be something to look forward to when it opens. With its romantic views and elegant comforts, the hotel makes a great choice for

couples of all ages. Imagine soaking in your private bath, gazing out at one of Japan’s most unique and beautiful landscapes, then enjoying a meal in the grand dining room followed by a nightcap on the rooftop bar. Rebuilding on such a landmark location was a risky proposition, but the new Unzen Kyushu Hotel is a triumph – and we’re already planning our next visit. We hear the autumn colors there are stunning!

Welcome to Yamakasa - Welcome to Fukuoka! You’ve probably already spotted some half-naked men running around town. These men in loincloths are participants in Fukuoka’s most anticipated annual festival, Hakata Gion Yamakasa. The highlight of the festival kicks off at exactly 4:59 a.m. on July 15, when thousands of men from seven districts race through the streets carrying decorative, one-ton floats. Spectators line the streets cheering them on by shouting “Oisa! Oisa!” and splashing them with water to keep them cool. Although the teams are timed, the event is not considered a race. The most successful team must exhibit cooperation and solidarity. This teamwork is not limited to just the runners. Local townspeople also participate by preparing for the festival and building floats almost a year in advance. We hope you’ll find this special map of use on the morning of the 15th. Don’t sleep in, and if you bring a camera, have a plastic bag handy because it gets really wet!

tch Where to Wa the Oiyama on July 15 Best Seats in the House!
Since the final Oiyama race is spread out over a 5 km route, there’s no bad place to watch the event, but here’s our top tips on where to get the best view:
Take It All In
Try Higashimachi-suji, the street parallel to Taihaku-dori: it slopes down toward the port, so a spot near the bottom at the intersection with Meiji-dori allows for a nice view of the floats coming from quite a distance away. Be careful, though, as the street is quite narrow!
Double the Fun
The intersection of Showa-dori and Taihaku-dori is a good place to see the floats more than once. Catch them a second time as they race down parallel streets.
Gentlemen, Start Your Floats
If you want to watch the race from the starting line, stake out a spot in front of Kushida Jinja Shrine no later than 4 a.m. (the earlier the better). After watching three or four starts, move to another place along the route for a different view.
Avoid the Crush
If you hate crowds or can’t manage waking up so early, try and catch one of the pre-Oiyama race events. Usually held in the late afternoon hours, they are less crowded than Oiyama. The stronger afternoon light also makes it easier to capture the action on camera.
Photography Tip!
Water is thrown as the teams run by; bring a bag or cloth to protect your camera!

Hakata Gion Yamakasa Gion Manju Every year in July, it is tradition for families in Hakata to share Gion Manju to keep them safe from harm during the Yamakasa period. Bearing the sacred symbol of Gion Shrine, this sweet continues to be beloved by Hakata locals as a good-luck charm and a vital part of Yamakasa.
ISHIMURA MANSEIDO MAIN STORE A location of great local historic significance at the finish line of the Oiyama (Yamakasa). 2-1 Susaki-machi, Hakata-ku has been our main store’s address for generations. It also marks the presumed boundary of old “Hakata” and “Fukuoka”, and the finish line for the Oiyama, the climax of the Hakata Gion Yamakasa run in the early hours of July 15. This year, once again, the dedicated men of Yamakasa will run past our store. The Ishimura Manseido main store will be open from 4 a.m. on the morning of Oiyama, July 15.
