Ikea adventures and roast

On Sunday, Lauren and I ventured to Kobe for a day of shopping and food - or more accurately, Ikea, meatballs and roast!

We took the free shuttle bus from Sannomiya station in Kobe to Ikea - how べんりis that! It's much like the Ikea at home, of course, with a few "exclusive to Japan" items.

The same, but in Japanese


Ikea is on Port Island in Kobe


Lunch? Swedish meatballs of course -
and I had to have cake... and chips too

But really what we were looking forward to was Sunday Roast. Hobgoblin is an English Pub serving up all the foods we miss from home! And their promise of roast was too irresistible to pass up.

And they delivered the goods! Yum.

The pub is just across the road from the JR Sannomiya station, in the building next to Maccas, on the seventh floor.

Check out the view from the window

You never know what you'll find in Japan!

Until next time,
