If you're looking for what to eat in Nagoya, or are curious about Japan's trends, you've come to the right place. I'm a frugal foodie living in Nagoya, Japan's biggest unknown city, and I've fallen in love with everything Japanese! You can also find me on Instagram; just look for 「Trends and Things in Japan」 (インスタのネーム) こんにちは!名古屋に住んでいるカナダ人ですけど、この町大好き!名古屋での生活から名古屋の食べ物までブログをさせていただきます!
23. Shiro Noir (2020 Version)
Although it's supposed to be a maple syrup, I thought the overall flavour was of butterscotch! This one had bits of those cigar or roll cookies in it so there's also a crunch and strong flavour from that as well. The white chocolate bottom gives the essence of soft ice cream. I honestly can't remember if this was any different from last year's version, but it was bigger for sure, allowing for a bigger flavour burst!
Oden is a favourite dish in Japan when winter comes along. It can be found in restaurants, convenience stores and in home kitchens when the weather starts to cool after Fall sets in. Items such as fish cakes, beef tendon, thick slices of daikon, konnyaku, fried tofu bags filled with mochi and hard boiled eggs are simmered for hours in a flavourful broth. The long cooking process makes the contents absorb all the flavours right down to the centre, makes the fish cakes burst with juicy broth, and the beef tendon so soft you don't need teeth to eat it.
22. Milk 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (2020)
One of the pastries that I've found has made a quiet appearance but is quite trendy now in Japan is the canule. It's a French pastry made with lots of egg yolks, so it's almost like a bread pudding.
Canules always seem to have the same shape, like a tall mini bundt cake.
Here's a canule I recently bought from a patisserie called Amanda Sweets Gallery near Honjin Station in Nagoya.
