What pops into my mind when it comes to Yamagata? I could think about Zao Monsters, Ginzan Onsen, Yamagata’s cherries, and a lot of SAKE! As a start of our journey, we activated our JR East-South Hokkaido Rail Pass that is priced at ¥ 35,000 …
After visiting to Yutoku Inari Shrine and explored around Hizen Hamashuku , we finally made our last stop at this cute little HAMA BAR. HAMA BAR Hama Bar is located just next to JR Hizenhama Station; literally just connecting to the station. This is the …
The main purpose I came to Kashima City in Saga is for this place called Hizen Hamashuku. There are 5 sake breweries in Kashima City; three of them situated in Hizen Hamashuku and they are within the walking distance, namely Fukuchiyo Shuzo, Mitsutake Shuzo, Minematsu Shuzo. Along this 600-meter stretch of Sakagura Street (Sakagura-dori), there lines these sake breweries, sake shops, restaurants and café where sake lovers could chill and take a short stroll, hoping into the shops that offer sake tasting and shopping.

After exploring the famous Shrine – Yutoku Inari Shrine 祐徳稲荷神社. We walked for about 35 minutes to Hizen Hamashuku, which is about 2.4km from the shrine (of course we stopped by in between for snack bites at 7-eleven konbini and road side sakura spot).
Alternatively, you may take the bus from Yutokujinja-mae station to Kuboyama (2 stops), and walk about 1.3km to Hizen Hamashuku.
If you would love to visit to Hizen Hamashuku only, you can disembark at Hizen-Hama Station, Sakagura-dori is about 6-minute walk from the station
.
Our first stop for sake was this Sachihime Shuzo, as it was along the way towards Hizen Hamashuku from Yutoku Inari Shrine. Established since 1934, this sake brewery is famous for brewing the sake dedicated to the gods at Yutoku Inari Shrine.

KENJI Japanese Restaurant
Sharing the same row with Tiki Taka and Vintry in the quieter neighbourhood at Jalan Kasah, KENJI Japanese Restaurant
is a hidden gem that offers authentic Japanese dining experience.
The background behind this restaurant is quite interesting as they own a tuna processing factory in Shiogama, Miyagi Prefecture. Hence, what they serve here is all at top notch quality, the freshest ingredients air flown directly from Japan.
I got to know about this place from WeiZhi and we have been planning to go together but that day seems to take forever to come, due to our unmatched schedule. So, I made my way alone to Kenji Japanese Restaurant one day to have their Negitoro Don (I was craving for it). After that day, I was hooked with this place. I was here almost every week to check out the other dishes they offer.
The lunch sets KENJI offers are indeed super value for money with high cospa (cost performance) value. Another plus point, hot or cold tea is on the house too! So, here is my compilation of the few visits on their lunch menu!
And I must say dining inside here literally transport me back to Japan!
