Bamboo shoot is spring tastes 🙂
Week before last, I went to Yamadaya to join the dinner of eating bamboo shoots.
But I couldn’t take good pictures 🙁
I had ached all over for a week, especially my arms.
So, whatever I took, pictures were out of focus :O
I try to upload pictures that can be seen.
Well this is the photo of today’s menus.
