Meguro Saury Festival

Japanese people loves to eat a broiled saury with salt in the Autumn. The saury festival has been held in Meguro for 13 years, because a famous comic story "Meguro's Saury (Meguro-no-Sanma)" has been told for about 300 years.
I read an article that the festival committe prepared about 6000 sauries this year. My family wants to go to the festival and eat the free saury. My wife preapred rice in the lunch boxes. My family left my home at 9:30am, and arrived at 10am... 


I started standing on this long line at 10:16am near the Gotanda station.

I could see the smoke at 12:09pm at this corner at last.

Broiling 6000 sauries!

Smoke, Smoke, Smoke!

I could eat this delicious saury at 12:50pm near the Meguro station....

My family goes to swim at the Azuma Health & Sports Center after the festival, and we buys delicious cakes of the Quil Fait Bon in Daikanyama as usual.
