Suitengu Taian / 水天宮たいあん

Probably my biggest fan and most avid reader of my blog - my father, wrote to me in an e-mail that he had no idea what a taiyaki which also meant that he did not know what a taiyaki ice cream was. Perhaps there are some other readers who are not familiar with taiyaki as well. To put it simply, it's a hot bun shaped like a fish and usually filled with azuki. An even easier explanation is available. Check the "snacks" label and you will find a post about a shop called "The Tai Yaki".

多分私のブログの一番のファンと思われる人物(自分のお父さん)が電子メールでたい焼きってわからないようとつぶやいた。当然たい焼きアイスも分かるはずがない。他の読者もたい焼きが知らない人もいるの思うので、簡単に説明します。鯛の形のあったかいまんじゅと言えば一番分かりやすいかも。そじてまんじゅの中につぶばんとかあずきが入ってる。もっと簡単と言えば、“Snacks”のラベルを選択して、“The Tai Yaki”の店の事を書いております。


If you look at the picture above, it looks like an ordinary taiyaki. However, it was the end of summer and this shop had for a limited time only, a vanilla ice-cream filled taiyaki.

上記の写真を見たら普通のたい焼きにしか見えないと思います。店に行ったのは夏の終わり頃でまだ期間限定のたい焼きアイすを売ってた。
