Tesco テスコジャパン

So yes its true there is a Tesco in Japan, I just discovered in by accident but interesting it was!

Check out the website here - in English
in Japanese

They dont have a huge range of UK products but a few essentials are welcome! Picked up some Indian cooking sauces as well as a few old favorites........


Probably the beans are the most important product they carry but also Tesco biscuits and wine is not bad.

Sausage Rolls

A staple food item in many countries there are sausage rolls in Japan of course....

Here is a standard sausage roll

A little bigger

And then there is the monster sausage roll (which was very good actually, having mustard and cheese inside always helps)


Finally, you can get sausage rolls in Pizza very strange....









The traditional sausage roll is made with puff pastry with sausage meat in the centre, a little different from the one above... If you want to try making them there is a recipe here

A good start!

As is usual for the new year one ambition is to try to become healthier.. so with this in mind decided to visit one of my favorite hamburger places to "kick things off" as it were... Double cheeseburger with extra cheese.. mmmmmmmmm.







But seriously, going to try to get fitter this year so have set a limit of a burger once a week and going to do my best to stick to it!
