What is the animal in the corner of the first picture? Looks a little like a NA raccoon but with different colors.

I love Japanese food too, but to get through a big day in the bc I would need to add a couple baloney sandwitches to that meal. It's no wonder those guys are as skinny as their skis.

A few weeks right after most ski resorts closed for their seasons are the best periods for us to prepare for forthcoming spring tours. :-)

Yes, you're correct. It's Japanese raccoon (tanuki).

Ha,ha! :lol:
Actually, fuel-efficient XCD rigs don't require us calories too much. :-)

Warmed deep-fried tofu (atsu-age) flavored with soy-based-soup and toppings: dried bonito flakes and Welsh onion (negi).

Alright. That is making me hungry. When you say "flavored with soy-based-soup" is that miso? If so, what type? Sorry to pry...

It's not miso.
The soup is probably made from water, soy sauce, rice cooking wine (mirin), sugar and dashi.
