It’s in Amagasaki, but the fire show at “Hyogo Rakuichi Rakuza,” which started yesterday, July 5 (Sat) at 4 p.m., was amazing. The photos are from Mr. Kuroki, who also took tons of great shots for us back at the Ojizo-san event〜〜.
Here it is↓



This is the real deal: a fire show〜〜!

It was held at “Hyogo Rakuichi Rakuza,” located next to the Amagasaki Expo P&R Parking Lot, which is set up during the Expo period.

This day brought together the Kitaharima area of Hyogo, including Miki City, which is super famous for Yamada Nishiki sake rice.

This meat. The tenderness, umami, and balance of fat were absolutely perfect and insanely good! It’s called Kurodashō Wagyu(くろだしょうわぎゅう) from Nishiwaki City, and it’s the breeding stock behind Kobe Beef. Limited to 100 servings.

Apparently, Taka Town(even farther north than Miki City) is where Yamada Nishiki originated. This is the original Yamada Nishiki sake. You can sample it for free.

You can also eat Kitaharima’s local ramen, “Banshu Ramen,” known for its slightly sweet soup〜

And you can try a Nanburger〜〜

When it gets hot〜, there’s Ehime ponkan jelly. Perfect for replenishing citric acid, salt, and coolness! It used salt from Christmas Island, so it had a rich mineral flavor〜

Miki City is famous for hardware. You can shave bonito flakes here〜.

You can also make a Myaku-Myaku fan〜〜〜. It’s made with Sugiharagami, a washi paper with over 900 years of history

Getting to make the washi paper itself is pretty one-of-a-kind, isn’t it〜?

It’s an event that feels like a mini Hyogo expo. It’s happening again today〜〜. Shachobi will also be joining in a little as MC, so we’d be happy if you came by〜〜!

Rakuichi Rakuza has a lovely nighttime atmosphere, just as you’d expect from something called a night market.


Myaku-Myaku-sama bursting with energy.

The powerful dancing flames looked like Flame Breathing from Demon Slayer. Be sure to feel that heat for yourself〜〜. It’s happening again today, 7/6 (Sun), from 4 p.m.〜〜! If you’re not great with the heat, we recommend going after 6 p.m. when it’s cooler〜
