Japanese Food Market

We've found a Japanese food market in Cary. It takes about 30 min to get there by car from our house. There are many "real" Japanese ingredients and nice Californian rice. The owner is also Japanese who keeps the shop neat and tidy. We bought Japanese Sake for cooking, rice and flour for Japanese pan cake, which is called Okonomiyaki. The owner gave us free, hand made sushi roll and Japanese sweets. It seems that she gives those things only on weekends.
Until we found the Japanese food market, my sister used to send Japanese ingredients to us almost every month. (She is very kind!)

When I lived in the UK for a couple of years, I didn't fancy Japanese food. I liked Italian because it was easy to cook, but I think my taste has changed. Also, my husband likes Japanese food, especially Japanese sweets.
