I love the chicken and green onion picture. It looks so moist and delicious! I have not had liver since I was a child. I wasn't a big fan of it then, but I may like it now. I will have to give it a try one of these days.

All look good to eat except the chicken skin one. The grilled chicken with green onion would be my favorite.

When I was there all of this grilling was done on the hibachi. They used them to cook on and to heat the houses with. Lots of bad headaches from the carbon monoxide for us as we were not used to it.

I remenber "Hibachi" slightly.

「葱鮪」の語義は「spring onion tuna」無いです。

(Meaning to say, is 'negima' not 'spring onion tuna'? できるだけ日本語を練習。間違ったな事があったら何なりとおっしゃって下さい。)

鮪であれ、鳥であれ、それはとても美味しい。

Hello leica.you are right.
originaly it means grilled tuna and green onion, but nowaday it means chicken meat and green onion.

麗香さん、こんにちわ。
もともとは、マグロと長葱を焼いたものだったそうです。
今では鳥肉と長葱を串に刺して、焼いたものを意味します。
