Todam is a Korean BBQ restaurant at Bukit Tinggi, Klang. 🇰🇷

We did not try the BBQ today. Instead, we ordered a pot of Budae Jeongol (부대전골), which means "army stew". 🍲💂‍♂️

The meal also comes with a variety of side dishes called banchan (반찬). 🥘

Isaac, Joy and Papa Go Japan: Day 3 and 4, Higashikawa, Otaru, Sounkyo and Asahidake
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I did not plan to drive around the entire island of Hokkaido in the few days we had. It would not be practical or fun. So I decided to keep things within the centre of Hokkaido.

From Shikotsuko, we drove to Higashikawa (my favourite town) and stayed at my friends’ B&B. Dinner was spent watching the Rugby World Cup Finals with my friends (they were rooting for England) while Isaac and Joy played with their kids, who were a few years younger. Jody and Nina adore big sister Joy, whom they met when she came visiting during my solo trip with her when she turned 12, and the girls were happy to see her again.

The next morning, we set off again, without any plans once more. I thought, perhaps we could drive out to Otaru, just to have a look. Frankly, it was just an excuse to drive, as the drive itself is very pleasant. I told them, “Otaru is famous for their canals.”

Joy asked, “And?”

“That’s pretty much it,” I said. It is one big tourist trap, to be honest, and I told them, “Essentially, we are driving all the way to see Otaru’s Long Kangs.” They laughed and were cool with their father’s rather stupid travel plans.

“The canals are actually quite nice when it is winter, to be honest,” I added, trying to make it sound a bit more exciting.

When we got to Otaru, I found a parking lot near the canals and was quite pleased it said ¥100 for 30 minutes. After parking, I realized I read it wrongly and it was actually ¥400 for 30 minutes during the day, and ¥100 for 30 minutes AT NIGHT.

“We better not stay too long,” I told the kids. Joy, the financially-minded of the two, said, “Ya, not worth paying that kind of parking for Long Kang.”

So we snapped some photos, walked around the food court a bit, and then left Otaru. I figured we would get lunch further away, en route to Sounkyo, where we planned to stay the night.

Sounkyo is a quaint mountain resort area, located in Kamikawa. It is considered a touristy place, but a good base to hike Daisetsuzan National Park from. We stopped at a ramen place in Kamikawa called Yoshino, just off the highway. And wow, the ramen was great. They even had thick slices of Miton roast pork available as a side, in limited quantities. This is part of the fun of road trips: stumbling upon good places to eat.

After eating at Yoshino, we drove on to Sounkyo and stopped at the Twin Waterfalls rest stop. That was when we encountered some serious cold and wind chill. It was -1ºC and windy there. We looked at the majestic cliffs for a bit, stared at the waterfall which was not flowing very rapidly (Spring is when the ice melts and you get a grander sight) and then we ran into the souvenir store to enjoy some heat.

The store ladies were so kind, and offered us cups of soup. They had a hot pot set up with paper cups to serve their customers, and we were very thankful for the soup. So much so that I felt I had to buy some stuff there, in gratitude. I bought some sweets and grapes. You may have seen the Instastory of Joy and me eating said grapes in our ryokan later, and attempting to spit the seeds into the bowl.

I asked the kids if they wanted to climb the stairs to the viewing platform but the sign said, “20 minutes” and there was a sign to look out for bears. So we chickened out. Actually we were just lazy. It was too much of a climb on a cold autumn’s day just to see two off-peak waterfalls.

We finally checked into Kumoi Hotel, a nice little place that was renovated only two years ago. Many of these onsen hotels in areas like this tend to be old and tired. A couple of the hotels I saw along the way had signs with missing words in their names. But not the Kumoi.

The kids had to set up the futon beds themselves, something they learned to do in our first house, and I have to say, it is handy having two assistants to set up the beds.

At least this Sounkyo area had three restaurants open till 8pm, so we did not need to tabao food. We chose an Italian place called Bear Grill, run by a handsome old man who made great food.

We also stopped by the Seicomart, the FamilyMart of Hokkaido, to resupply our drinks and junk food. And then retired to our hotel.

Because the Kumoi has its own onsen baths, I took the kids to the baths and taught the son how it works. Joy already had some experience in our previous trip so she was fine. The son took some convincing. “Nobody will look at your junk lah,” I assured him.

I gave him pointers on how to use an onsen, like putting a small towel on his head, and using the same small towel to cover his lower bits. The butt, that one cannot cover, the small towel was not big enough.

The kids enjoyed the onsen experience thoroughly, and we vowed to do it again when we could. And we ended our night at Sounkyo with a movie screening in the room, where I introduced them to The Matrix. Suffice to say, their minds were blown.

The next morning we drove back towards Higashikawa and stopped at the Seven Stars Tree. It is a scenic spot where, I later learned, a famous oak tree, that was once used on the packaging of seven stars tobacco, stood.

I only found out when I got to the Tree. Great, we drove all this way to see a cigarette advertisement. But the view was really nice lah. So it was not for nothing.

We also made a stop at the Shirogane Blue Pond, which was recently upgraded with new viewing platforms and lights. There, we spotted some dumb tourists taking photos on a tree branch that grew over the water. This is why we can’t have nice things.

By then it was close to sunset, and I didn’t want to drive in the dark, so we drove to Hotel Bear Monte, near Asahidake mountain, where I booked a night in this bigger, fancier onsen hotel. It took a lot of talking to convince the kids that it is okay to walk around the hotel in our yukata. And even to have the buffet dinner wearing our takata.

“This is how the farmers used to do it, on their vacations to onsen hotels,” I told the kids. They looked a little skeptical but took to it eventually. So we walked here walked there, like a boss, in our yukatas.

Like Japanese farmers on their winter onsen vacations.

要吃到一個100％純素咖喱是非常困難的，就算一些印度店說可以走奶，但現在純素後的我十分敏感，吃完，肚子總是不舒服！而這個【尼泊爾豆咖喱】味道非常出色，不會太辣，而且營養價值高（因為選用了超過十種豆子），可見店主真的很用心去研發不同高水準食物！

店主有話兒：
故事。三年前於尼泊爾地震後吃到的第一餐，那次之後重新反思自身該做的事，開始構想如何把理念和味道同時分享給身邊人，愛惜各種動物同時，對享有生命作出感恩的行動。

材料。採用超過十種豆子，浸泡一晚並以黃薑粉把豆子煮至適合消化，再打成豆蓉，配上蒜、洋蔥、薑與茴香籽、紅椒粉等不同天然香料，加上蕃茄與芫茜 (可不選)，視乎客人口味混入椰奶和純素乳酪，便可以在同一款料理上體驗到尼泊爾南北地區的風味變化。

大家要留意，HEADZ現在只做午餐外賣（也有純素雜貨提供），也會因應客人需要而走五辛，而我這次可以堂吃，是因為要拍攝啦（太幸運了），但店主實在太低調，明明長得又高又帥，但不讓拍臉，總有一天會拍到他臉的！

It is very difficult to have a 100% vegan curry. Even if some Indian restaurants say that they can provide vegan curry (without milk), but I am very sensitive after my switch. After eating those 'vegan' curry, my stomach is always uncomfortable!

But this [Nepal Bean Curry] tastes very good, not too spicy, and the nutritional value is very high (because more than ten kinds of beans are selected), it is obvious that the owner is really trying to develop different high-quality foods!

The owner has something to say about the curry:
STORY・ The first meal that was eaten three years ago after the earthquake in Nepal. After that time, I rethinking what I should do, and I began to conceive how to share ideas and tastes with people around me, to cherish all kinds of animals, and to be grateful for enjoying life.

INGREDIENTS・Use more than ten kinds of beans, soak for one night and cook the beans with turmeric powder to a degree that can be easily digest, then make them into bean mash, with different natural spices such as garlic, onion, ginger and fennel seeds, red pepper powder, plus tomatoes and coriander (optional), depending on the taste of the customers to mix with coconut milk and vegan cheese, you can experience the flavor changes in the north and south of Nepal in the same cuisine.

Please note that HEADZ is only doing lunch delivery (also providing some vegan groceries), and they can take away all the garlic, onion... according to the needs of the customers. I can have my lunch in the shop only because I need to film (so lucky), but the owner is too shy that don't wanna be filmed, but he's a handsome guy!
