There are some amazing local dishes to be tried in Hakuba. How adventerous will you be?

I had some good friends visit me from Australia this week. The McCann’s from Queensland came over after hearing all of the hype about the snow here in Japan. I am constantly impressed with how the younger generation are when they come and stay at the hotel with their parents. The McCann kids were no exception. Good manners and the ability to carry on a conversation with adults and their willingness to try new things. Tonight we all went out to one of my favourite restaurants where we tucked into a range of local delights including basashi toro which is a fine grade of raw horse meat.  The kids loved it although they were not too sure about telling some of their horse riding friends back home.
