Niiigata Nanban Shrimp Senbei
Crispy crackers packed to the brim with the sweetness and umami of red shrimps from Niigata. This is so good, no wonder this got the first prize.
Keishindo Japanese Shrimp Crackers
There is actually a striped neko in the kotatsu neko packet!
Anyone who opens this will be exclaiming in delight at how beautiful the crackers are. These are hands down the prettiest snacks I had ever seen. The crackers are tasty, being slightly seasoned, cripsy and full of umami of the prawns. Will definitely impress.

Kamakura Beniya Kurumicco Walnut Cake
The packaging is so cute! I love the squirrel motif. And this is surprisingly very good. Nutty goodness with the rich oils of the walnuts, slightly chewy caramel filling that is of the right sweetness and the aroma of baked goods, these together yield a delicious snack.

Ryogoku Kaki Age Karashi Rice Crackers
I have been looking for Japanese crackers that have some spice in them, and this is exactly what I had been searching for. Crunchy, spicy and full of flavours, this is a nice snack to munch on.

Rokkatei Strawberry Chocolate
The floral pattern on the cup is so pretty. Anyway, most important is still what's inside the cup. Freeze-dried strawberry is like a strawberry cookie filled with 100% goodness and sweet aroma of strawberries. And the sweetness and richness of white chocolate go so well with the tart taste of the strawberry. A very distinctive and unique sweet.

Audrey Gracia Strawberry
Unbelievably beautiful wrapping paper, box, paper bag and of course, the cookies! Sure to impress if given as gift. I like the packaging so much that I took lots of photos of this as seen below lol. Also perfect for personal indulgence.
I love this sweet because of the half piece of freeze-dried strawberry adorning the cream. It is like concentrated strawberry goodness in cookie form due to its crunchiness. There is no other confectionary that is like this, I love it. The cream adds the creaminess and moisture while the thin cookie wrap is so crispy, yet has this melt-in-your-mouth quality. A very well-put together ensemble. Highly recommend to spoilt oneself with in the comforts of one's home.

Kumamoto Castle under the Moon
Super cute mooncake, or what Japanese called it, manju! It's only as big as a tablespoon. And it's delicious too, being moist with lots of white bean paste filling and thin layer of dough. And there is a hint of the aroma of toasted chestnut to make it unique, which is how I like it.

Beautiful packaging and delicious cookie full of goodness of real strawberries. A real yummy treat that will appeal to almost all palates. I also love the crispy wafer bits added into the filling for extra texture and crunch.

Don Don Donki - I go Crazy Shopping here lol
After a recent change in lifestyle, I can now shop reins free! Well, sort of. And going to Don Don Donki simply awakens that shopaholic soul in me. So yes, while I go here with a see see look look attitude, I end up going crazy on the buying and just put whatever I like into the basket.
First mention is the Shine Muscat Grapes, the best grapes in the world! This grape is like the refreshing condensation of the sweetest fruity wine. Thin skin and no seed, it's perfection manifested in grape form. A must get if going to Don Don Donki.
Otafuku Okonomiyaki is delicious and authentic. Good to satisfy cravings for some omelettes packed with vegetables and some seafood. I like it that the sauce, bonito flakes and seaweed flakes are included.
My Star Deli Ebi Croquettes is one of my star buys of the day. The creamy prawn filling hidden within the fried mashed potato is a joy to eat since it is umami goodness.
This ramen smells so good and tastes great too. The broth is milder in flavour, not as salty and not as strong in pork taste, exactly how I like it. In fact, I finish the soup.
My Favourite Grocery shopping places!

Kumamon Cheesecake Snack
The lemon filling introduces that refreshing citrus zest and tangy taste to soft buttery cheese pastry dough. Like the Premium Blanc Strawberry Cheese, it wins over our tastebuds. Lemon fans will absolutely love this. But like the Premium Blanc Strawberry Cheese, the interior of the butter pastry dough is filled with half lemon filling and half air. Still worth a try though since it is yummy.

Premium Cheese Blanc Strawberry
Subtle cheese, sweet strawberry filling and soft buttery pastry dough, this is a combination to please all palates. Everyone who tries it, including yours truly of course, loves it. Though they could have been more generous in adding the strawberry filling into the pastry dough. Just divide the amount of filling you see on the picture on box into half, and that's the reality. This pastry will get 100 points from me if they are more generous with the filling.

The packaging is so beautiful and intricate that it will sure to impress anyone who receives it as gift. Yes, I highly recommend this to be given as gift because of the packaging plus the fact that the crackers taste great. All varieties are full of different flavours, from shiso herb, seaweed, plum, cheese, sesame to mentai. I like them all. My favourite is cheese since I love cheese and the texture is like that of crispy puffy cloud. Hard not to love this due to the unbelievably pretty packaging and tasty crackers.

Hakata Sugar Butter Sand Tree
An unexpected good find on Shopee! Presenting Hakata Sugar Butter Sand Tree, Amou Strawberry version! I love it that the biscuit part is made of puff pastry biscuit, making this snack unique. And just one light bite on the crispy biscuit, it breaks into mouth and melts into buttery goodness.The light saltiness of the biscuit perfectly complements the sweet cream sugar filling. And the strong aroma of real Amou strawberries makes me love this creation even more.

Okinawa Brown Sugar Coated Walnuts
How to enjoy nutritious food like walnuts that is great for the brain: by getting Okinawa Brown Sugar Coated Walnuts! The black sugar really adds that addictive touch to the walnuts and soften the texture a bit so that it is easy to bite. Perfect for the whole family to enjoy.
