The Magic of Chocolate in Ishigaki Island – Okinawa

It’s Halloween tomorrow so suddenly I would like to jump to another place – Ishigaki Island in Okinawa which I have stopped posting a while ago but actually I haven’t finish writing it yet. (It often seems to have a long way to go for each place). Because Halloween is coming! So I guess it would be great to post something related which is chocolate!! Probably you have prepared lots for kids – trick or treat tomorrow! 🙂

If you have read my previous posts of Ishigaki Island (if not just click to the side bar), though it is a small island but lots of exciting things to do and eat! There are a few dessert places which I highly suggest to go after dinner or a place to chill. Unlike normal dessert store, it looks more like a magical chocolate factory to me! and interior looks like a scenery in Harry Potter!

Yummy Pancakes in Ishigaki

After introduced a few passages of Ishigaki beef , hotel and sightseeing review. This morning, I would like to bring you to a lovely tropical rain forest cafe for dessert! I remember the weather of our last 2 days in Ishigaki kept raining all day! > – < Hence we have to cancelled all our outdoor activities but stay indoor only!

As you may know Ishigaki is all about sun and beach so what we then planned to reschedule as a food tour all day long! Yeah! We went to a little cafe which is full of tropical rain forest decoration. The seats at the center of the cafe was decorated like a little boat with a few seats only. I really admire the interior decoration of this little cafe! and lucky it wasn’t a touristy place!

Hotel review in Ishigaki Okinawa – Super Hotel

Whenever I travel, I would like to pick some affordable hotel but at the same time is neat and tidy. The size of the room wasn’t the most important to me as I know I would not stay long except sleep for a couple of hours. Not sure if you are the same as me?

A Day in Taketomi Island – Okinawa – PART 2

Continue from my previous post of Taketomi Island, so tonight I would like to introduce one of the most “MUST GO” activity in Taketomi Island (PART 2) – a ride on a buffalo cart experience!!  Let’s Go~

After we returned the bicycle and have a quick lunch at somewhere in the island. (I actually didn’t mark the place so apologise I’m not able to share haha) I ordered the cold Japanese noodle (picture below) and went quickly to the buffalo cart store. We have to be quick as we need to catch the ferry beck to Ishigaki Island. The buffalo cart rental store was just right next to the bicycle store.

Crystal Clear – Kabira Marine Bay

If you are planning your next trip to Ishigaki Island. This is where a MUST you have to go! A place where you can appreciate the coral reef and tropical fishes without getting wet. A bit introduction of the bay, it is a beautiful beach with soft nice sand. Not much things to do here other than take a boat trip but still it’s a place worth to go. This is going to be a short passage to guide you how to book the trip to the boat with glass bottom.

There is a lot of parking next to the Kabira Marine Bay. We parked our car close to the bay and exchanged the ticket that bought in advance through the web. I will show you the link later in the passage. The whole trip took only 30 minutes and it started from 09:00 – 17:00.

The A-4 Grade juicy steak in Ishigaki – Okinawa

Backdate from my last summer, it was my first time travelled to Ishigaki. If you have no idea where it is, it is one of the 8 main islands in the south of Okinawa. Surrounded by crystal clear turquoise color of water. In my next passage, I will introduce another island. Though not yet landed, the view from the plan was absolutely breath-taking! I was so excited to my first visit in this little Island.

A bit introduction of what Must Go / Must See in this little island, apart from the amazing beach and sunshine, one of a MUST EAT is the Ishigaki beef! So today, I would like to recommend one of the best restaurant I had tried last summer – SHIMA FrenchBar Sasaki Masaru (島フレンチバル佐々木勝) The name was a bit long!
