After visiting fujinomiya city i headed to Shimizu port to have asa gohan (breakfast). I wanted to eat some fresh sashimi with rice(Donburi). You can get a clear view of mount fuji from this port town.

While walking towards the Kashi no Ichi market i stumbled upon a crowd playing some game at a shop. At first i don’t understand what’s goin on? is it an auction or something? Then i saw the old man getting a piece of cut Tuna and he seem to not pay anything. I stayed longer and observed.

Now i understand.

It seem they were playing jankenpo (rock scissors paper). Winner gets some tuna. I had some urge to participate but i was on the move, where would i put a raw tuna haha.Yabai if i won some haha. so i decided not to.

It was interesting. First time also i see Tuna being cut live with my own eyes. Only saw in youtube all this while

location Shimizu town
Train station: Jr Shimizu
