Wedding Nijikai + Yatai Ramen.

So after the wedding, we headed on to the nijikai, or afterparty, for a bit.

Drinks, food, toasts... good fun.

And then afterwards, against all common sense and defiance of gastrointestinal fortitude [too... much... food...] a buncha teachers wanted to head on to a yatai.

And since Sandy and I had never been to one of these bastions of Hakata culture, we went along for the ride, and ate yet again.



Yatai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
"A yatai (屋台, yatai) is a small, mobile food stall in Japan typically selling ramen or other hot food.

The stall is set-up in the early evening on pedestrian walkways and removed late at night or in the early morning hours before commuters begin to fill the streets."



The yatai of choice was one for tonkotsu Nagahama ramen.

And more beer.

[I could not even drink a glass. I do not know how they do it.]
