So, the rainy season has finally finished in Japan and now every day is getting hotter and hotter, especially in Tokyo
日本的雨季终于结束了,现在越来越热,特别是东京
and today it was around 30 degress, so it's boiling hot here and I'm boiling as you can see right now
今天差不多有30℃,现在热得发烫,你也看见了,我都要烤熟了
and I know the perfect thing to eat on a summer's hot day. So I'll take you there today, lets go
我知道有个东西特别适合夏天吃,今天我就带你去,走吧
Today we've come to a local neighbourhood west of Tokyo called Sangenchaya
我们来到了东京西部一家叫作“三轩茶屋”的地方
It’s only 2 stops away from Shibuya, but you can already feel a big difference in the atmosphere
这间小店离涩谷仅两站地,但你能明显感觉到气氛不一样
Off the main road in the back streets we find ourselves an old traditional shaved ice shop
在远离主干道的小街上,我们发现了一间传统的刨冰店
When you start seeing lines for shaved ice, you know summer's arrived
当你看到刨冰店前有人在排队,你就知道夏天到了
Shaved ice is definitely a must eat in summer and it gives you a taste of what Japanese summer is like
刨冰是夏天必吃的东西,它能告诉你日本的夏天是怎样的
This shop here has been running for 40 years and is loved by the locals
这间小店已经经营了40年,一直很受当地人喜爱
While there are many trendy shaved ice out there now
虽然现在周围多了很多时髦的刨冰店
this shop keeps the simple and traditional taste of Japanese shaved ice
这间小店一直都保持着日本刨冰传统而朴素的味道
Ishibashi-san cuts the ice just before it starts to melt giving it a soft cotton candy texture
莲司奶奶将即将融化的冰打碎,使其变得绵软
and then she puts different coats of sweeteners on top
再淋上不同口味的甜味剂
There are lots of flavours you can choose from and the price ranges from 500~1000yen
有很多口味供你选择,价格在500到1000日元
There were so many flavors to choose from and I couldn't decide
口味多到我不知选哪个好
However, in the end I decided to go with the green tea flavour for 800yen
但最后,我要了个800日元的抹茶刨冰
and mannnnn did it taste good after a days work
啊,工作一天之后吃上一杯刨冰岂不好
and if you're one of those people who love to take photos of your food before you eat
如果你喜欢在吃东西前先拍照
trust me, this is not one of those foods you should do it with
相信我,千万别选这个
because you'll end up like me having to drink it and have green tea instead of shaved ice
因为最后你会像我一样,不是在吃刨冰,而是在喝绿茶
So, this was my first shaved ice for summer 2016
这是我2016年夏天吃的第一个刨冰
and I'm sure with the hotter weather coming up, I will be eating a lot more
我相信天气会越来越热,我也会吃更多刨冰
