Pizza?

We have seen many different kinds of pizza since we arrived in Japan - pizza covered in mayonnaise, squid pizza, seaweed pizza, but an advert from a local pizza company through our door recently surprised even us. Strawberry dessert pizza! The topping is a mouth-watering strawberry syrup and fresh cream. We have not so far rushed out to order it. Some of the combinations here are somewhat weird - to Western taste buds anyway. The other day we sampled spinach cheesecake. Then while in a chocolate shop looking for some Mother's Day goodies, we spotted packets of mildly-chocolate flavoured beef curry! This particular chocolate shop is one of the most well-known in Hokkaido and frequently comes up with new creations. It seems that 12th June is a special day here for giving something to your loved one - it's the first time we've come across that day. Strawberry again makes an appearance on the adverts for this day - how about a box of strawberry and fromage macaroon? Or maybe some green tea flavoured fresh cream chocolates instead? If none of that appeals, then there is always the restaurant where you can get chocolate-topped pizza. Perhaps we should just stick to sushi and tempura.
