Yes, I’m still here! But Chez Yusuke has relocated to Perth, Western Australia. Once we have proper cooking equipment, this blog will revive. I also expect to post pictures of exotic foodstuffs.
At the Fremantle market
In terms of finding Japanese food, the situation seems pretty equivalent to Montreal. We’ve found a specifically Japanese grocery store in an area called Subiaco, but it’s fairly small. Right now, we’re staying very close to a large Chinese grocery that has a surprisingly diverse array of Japanese items. And they give 10% off Japanese products on Saturdays!
In comparison with Montreal (or Colorado), it will be quite feasible to become locavores here. I feel a lot better about consuming bananas grown in WA!
