士多啤梨放題 02

日本水果向來都廣受歡迎,其中 人 氣 最 為高企 的 一定 要 數 只在 冬季才出現,紅當當、甜絲絲的 士多啤梨。每年1月至5月,是士 多啤梨最當造的日子,如果剛好 在這段時間造訪日本,便可以一 嘗即採即吃士多啤梨。全國眾多 果園中,只有熊本縣能吃到名為 01.要挑又紅又大的士多啤梨,十分好吃! 02.種植的地方是於溫室之內,所以不用擔 心天氣太冷的問題,小朋友與老人家都可以 盡情大吃特吃。

「熊紅」的士多啤梨。此品種研 發了約 十年,於 2 0 1 5 年才正 式 完成,已在 海 外開始販賣,高甜 度的味道,應該在不久將來會虜 獲更多人的歡心,想快人一步試 吃的話就要來熊本一轉。 南阿蘇ふれあい(Fureai)農園 地址:日本熊本縣阿蘇郡南阿蘇村 一関1273-1 電話:81-90-2717-4478 營業時間:09:00-17:00 網址:www.fureainoen.com

活火山,感覺雖危險,但如果人生 有機會一踏上其火山口,看着冒 煙的火頭,律動有致的噴發活動, 能夠親身感受到地球的跳動,相 信是不少人的願望。而近年活躍十 足的阿蘇火山,是一個頗為容易 去的活火山,計劃於本年3月將重 新開放山頭讓旅客上去看看。即 使未能登頂,亦有一個記載詳細 資料的展覽館位於山腰,設有多 個活動模型及一個名為「S u p e r R ing」的投影,清楚簡單讓旅客 理解阿蘇地區的形成的方式。欣 賞完後,更多以到樓層的頂樓,以 一個更近的距離眺望阿蘇山,壯 觀且雄偉。

剛 進 洞 窟 時以 為 裏 面沒有什麼 可看性,但內裏的鐘乳石保留完 整,又有不同形態。如果喜 歡 較 刺激的行程,建議旅客選擇「冒 險Course」,爬上爬下,還要涉 水,但卻看到一大片鐘乳石洞及 洞穴內部的瀑布,極為好玩。 07

一年四季的激流大冒險 激流于人的感覺是夏天的活動, 原來全年亦可以𣈱玩河流之上。 夏天不少人會挑戰這裏的激流。 戴上頭 盔,穿上救 生衣,乘 坐橡 皮艇,順流而下,沿途 會遇上彎 道陡坡礁石各種刺激,水急位置 更會將橡皮艇拋起,充分體驗日 本三大急流之一的魅力。相對夏 天,冬天河水 較少,所以亦不像 夏天 那麼「激」。但冬天的風也 相 對較冷,為了解決這個問題, 店家忽發其想,把日本家庭常用

的暖爐桌帶到船上。暖爐桌發熱 的原材料其實只是最簡單的炭, 再放上一張長桌子,夾着一張厚 被,就可以抵禦 寒風。隨着小船 搖擺,邊品嘗美酒佳餚,邊欣賞 沿途風景,往下流漂去。船家會 因應當天的水流,有時還可以讓 客人試試划木船的滋味,全程照 顧周到! 09,10. 由經驗老到的船夫划着木船,旅客只 需安坐位置上,一年任何時間也能享受到急 流的過癮及沿途風光。

對KUMAMON的迷思

KUMAMON SQUARE

一 個 人 去 旅 行 ,到 達 熊 本 市, KUMAMON的蹤影是無處不在的! 由火車、建築、紀念品到食品包裝, 整 條 街 都 是 K U M A M O N。難 得來 到,不 到 牠 的 辦 公室 K U M A M O N SQUARE看看好像對不起自己!

重回江戶時代

城彩苑 城彩苑位於熊本城附近,感覺好 像在某些有關江戶時期的日劇中 看過這種裝潢。網上查了一下, 櫻 花 小路 是以 江戶時 代 城下町 風情而建的,裡面有23間出售熊 本縣產珍品的店舖,也有體驗熊 本縣飲食文化的餐飲店。剛好我 來到的時候有表演看,更有幸與 演員一同拍照留念啊! 湧湧座有點像博物館,可藉著看 展品和虛 擬 影 像 體 驗 熊本的歷 史,或者穿一下日本江戶時代的 服飾留倩影也可以啊!

館中整個感覺是很有童話氣息的,不斷 播著KUMAMON的節目片段和音樂。到 了特定時候又會有KUMAMON熊的表演 環節。如果想安坐場內看本尊真身就最 好比預定時間早一小時來排隊啦!早已脫 離了童年我來說已沒有甚麼Fantasy,於 是就問了職員一個很理性的問題。 我:「KUMAMON入面是誰?」 職員:「嘻嘻!告訴你一個秘密,KUMAMON是5歲的男仔熊啊!」 當然我那就沒有追問牠是不是與蠟筆小新一樣年年都是5歲啦! 只是覺得有這種信念那就不要說穿令小朋友失望吧!說不定 KUMAMON真的是年年5歲的男仔熊啊!

一 個 人去 旅 行 就 是會 與 很 多人 交朋結友啊,與演員聊了好一陣 就交換了LINE啊,雖然未必會再 見,但周圍認識新朋友了解當地 文化真的是最開心的時間!

日本三大神宮

「熱田神宮」 據 說熱田神宮是繼 伊 勢神宮之後, 第二最多人參拜的神宮,一年內有八 百萬人來參 拜。原 來熱田神宮已有 1900年歷史之久,供奉的是熱田大 神,也是日本三神器之一:草薙劍之神靈,同時為日本天皇統治 權所在。這裡對於名古屋人來說是相當重要的,每逢新年,這 裡聚集了許多人來這裡「初詣」,即是新年的第一次參拜,當地 居民甚至親切的稱熱田神宮為「熱田san」。 新鮮水果千層蛋糕

磁浮鐵道博物館

我認識HARBS這間水果千層蛋糕店並 不是在名古屋,有一次去東京採訪,發 現每次看到這間店門外總會有一條長 龍。後來才知道,原來HARBS的本店 是 在名古屋,所以來這 裡 就 一定 要 去 朝聖。他們堅持用新鮮水果,不會把水 果冷凍留待隔天再用,也不會用罐頭水 果,因此每天數量有限,想吃到心水蛋 糕,不要太晚才來這裡。

介紹過吃的,也介紹過可以了解 日本人文化的熱田神宮,當然少 不了去玩的。我本身很喜歡日本 的鐵道,所以鐵道博物館一定會 在我的行程之內。一般鐵道博物 館 都 會展 示 出以往 的列 車 給 大 家參觀,這裡除了展示了過去JR 東海的行走過車廂外,更特別的 是,這位個 博物 館以「未 來」為 主題,為大家介紹日本最新的火 車磁浮技術,入場的朋友更可以 體驗坐在時速500公里利用磁浮 行走的模疑新幹線內。 此外,也可以參加駕駛JR列車及 新幹線的遊戲,新幹線的部份每 天分不同時段抽選幸運兒,沙米 去過兩次也沒有選中,希望下次 再接再厲吧!

高雅靈動的傳統藝術: 仙女舞蹈 THE DIVINE ART OF TRADITION — ASPARA DANCE

戴冠飾、身披色彩艷麗的傳統服裝,表情莊嚴而肢體律 動柔韌典雅的靈動舞姿不只出現在吳哥窟的石牆上,亦在暹 粒的劇院裏。作為柬埔寨最為古老及神聖的藝術形式之一, 仙女舞蹈,或稱「阿帕撒拉舞」(Apsara)是柬埔寨的各種古 典舞蹈中最為常見的一種,而舞者則通常被稱為「仙女」,在 梵文有「天堂舞者」的意思。在十九至二十世 紀初期,這些 「仙女」們主要在皇族廟宇和各郡神殿舉辦的祭祀,或在婚 禮及葬禮等典禮上表演以高棉民族起源的神話為劇本,並體 現高雅、崇敬和靈性等傳統價值的阿帕撒拉舞。

在觀賞過吳哥窟中多達1,700多尊舞蹈神女的浮雕後,不妨 到仙女劇院,在柬式民族音樂中親身感受彷彿從石雕上舞動 而下,優雅而神聖的仙女們的表演。劇院更有餐點提供,為 旅者帶來更濃厚的柬式風情體驗。

T

he Aspara Dance is a traditional performance that showcases not only the Khmer culture but also the mix of religions of which Cambodia was built upon. Dancers decked out in beautiful traditional costumes and headgear performing with sinuous, graceful movements train for years to perfect this complex routine. Performances can be found in the temples of Angkor, and also in the theatres of Siem Reap. Each performance narrates a classical myth or religious story. In Angkor Village Aspara Theatre, tourists are able to fully immerse in the culture of Cambodia by enjoying fine local authentic food while watching the performance delivered by the Aspara dancers.

吳哥藝術寶石 JEWEL OF KHMER ART

女王宮(Banteay Srei)有「女人的城堡」之意,

又稱班蒂斯蕾,位 於吳哥窟小圈、大圈和外圈中 的「外圈」,是荔枝山(Phnom Dei)旁的一座印度 教寺廟。女王宮是當時吳哥唯一並非由國王,而是 由大臣所建的主要廟宇,主要供奉婆羅門教三大 天神之一的濕婆神。女王宮主要使用了朱色砂岩 作為建築材料,寺廟亦因而呈現了朱紅微粉的色 澤。女王宮的規模雖比其它吳哥古跡為小,但從內 而外,以總計3層的紅石砌成的浮雕與壁畫栩栩如 生,因而得「吳哥藝術寶石」之美名。

01 02

女王宮中心有3座鐘形寺塔,寺塔內外都裝飾着精 緻的壁畫,大多記述古代高棉人民的生活以及抵 禦外族的戰鬥場景。在這裏,旅客不但可以欣賞這 顆美麗的藝術寶石,亦能從中體味柬埔寨的歷史; 女王宮裏更埋藏着被稱為「東方的蒙娜麗莎」的飛 天女神像,想一窺堂奧,就得在廟中細細探尋了。

B

anteay Srei, with the literally meaning of ‘Citadel of the Women’, is well-praised as the ‘Jewel of Khmer Art’ because of its exquisite and refined carvings on the walls, lintels and pediments. Built largely of red sandstone, the Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva has a pinkish hue. Despite its miniature size compared to other Angkorian constructions, this temple has the finest, most intricate carvings to be found in Angkor. It is often speculated to have been built by women due to its intricacy.

03 04

Commissioned by a courtier, Banteay Srei stands out as one of the few temples not credited to a monarch. Of most interest to visitors here are the two libraries and the three towers in the inner enclosure as this is where the carvings are the most delicate. Spend some time here to get a glimpse into the historic Kingdom of Khmer and learn about the stories of ancient Khmer people through this maze of divine artworks! 女王宮 Banteay Srei 地址:Banteay Srei District, Siem Reap, Cambodia 開放時間:07:30-17:30 電話:855-93-633-030

Built at the end of the 12th century by King Jayavarman VII, the terrace faces the palace grounds where important processions were often held. Thus, the King would spend hours on the terrace which he sometimes also used as an audience hall to receive guests. As King Jayavarman VII suffered from leprosy, this was how the unfortunate terrace name came about.

Out of rage, Taga murdered his son and his youngest daughter speared Taga to death out of heartbrokenness. The twelve pillars are believed to house the spirits of his children and as each pillars collapse, their spirits will be released.

However, the ones that you will find in congee restaurants are those which are crispy outside, airy and hollow inside, making it a wonderful snack to binge on.

牛脷酥 Ox-tongue Pastry 牛脷酥的形狀呈橢圓,兩邊微尖,像甜甜圈一樣 中間有一個洞。看似簡單,但其實製作方法十分 考功夫。因為外圈是以高筋麵粉經發酵製成,而 內圈則是利用低筋麵粉及糖製成,能掌握兩者的 比例及控制油炸的火候才能做出好吃的牛脷酥。 This oval pastry gets its name from its ox-tongue shaped exterior. The best way to describe the delightful pastry is 'Chinese doughnut'. It is similar to the Chinese Youtiao, only chewier and sweeter. Enjoy the unique texture with chewy dough and a crunchy crust which will satisfy your sweet tooth for sure.

炸兩 Zha Leung 結合腸粉及油炸鬼的小食,原本有分為炸一腸和炸兩 腸,分別是指粉皮捲住一條和兩條油炸鬼,後來簡化 為今時今日的炸兩。外皮軟滑,內裏柔韌,完全沒有 油膩感覺。一般會澆上醬油,但也可以按照個人喜好 加入甜醬及麻醬來吃。 Zha leung is the combination of two of locals’ all-time favorites, steamed rice paper rolls and Chinese fried dough. It is silky outside, and chewy inside. It usually comes as it is, but at dim sum establishments, it is sometimes served with a variety of fillings inside. Have it with your choice of sweet soy sauce, or a splash of hoi sin or sesame paste.

日本祭典美食 JAPANESE FESTIVAL FOOD – THE ESSENCE OF JAPAN

說到日本數不盡的節慶及祭典,就一定來不開祭典的美食。除了經典美食的章魚燒及炒麵外,其實還 有很多絕對不能錯過的美食。大家春季去日本賞櫻花之餘,不防試一下這次介紹的5款屋台小食。

J

apan is one of those countries where there are always festivities going on. Nonetheless, when one is speaking of festivals in Japan, the topic of delectable street snacks will not fall far off. Other than the classic takoyaki and yaki-soba, there are so much more street food for you to discover. Not to worry, you will definitely be able to find these easily in Japan. Enjoy the beauty of sakura bloom with these delicacies in your hands.

巨型蟹柳棒 Crab Stick 一排排粗壯的蟹腳整齊排在屋台的店面。看似帝王蟹的 蟹腳,但其實是松葉蟹及白身魚製成的巨型蟹柳。在屋 台的巨型蟹柳棒通常以清蒸或燒烤這兩種方法烹調。清 蒸的蟹柳棒口感柔軟,味道鮮甜;燒烤的蟹柳棒外皮經店 員用火槍進一步烤香,鎖住了清甜的肉汁。

鹽燒 鮎魚 Grilled Ayu (Sweetfish) 鮎魚又名為香魚,顧名思義,牠味道鮮甜不腥。屋台的小 販們都將牠們用長竹籤串起,串起來後型態就像暢游於河 川裏一樣。撒上鹽,一支一支的圍着炭火慢烤,烤至外皮香 脆,呈金黃色即可。肉質細嫩而紮實,其內臟帶微微的苦味, 經咀嚼過後會變得甘甜。那種甘甜絕對會讓你一試難忘。 Sweetfish is a small type of fish which can be found in fast-flowing rivers in Japan. It can only survive and grow in clean waters. This simple snack is created by grilling skewered fresh sweetfish slowly over charcoal heat to retain its freshness. The end result is unique yet literally bittersweet.

Though not immediately evident, these crabmeat skewers (i.e. crabsticks) are made up of grounded whiteflesh fish and snow crab. You can have them either steamed or grilled. By steaming them, the crabmeat is soft and sweet, while the grilled version is seared before it is served to seal in the juices, making it extra juicy.

肉卷飯糰 Meat Wrapped Onigiri (Rice Ball) 只吃小食 嫌 份量不夠的話,那麼肉卷飯糰 就非常適合 您了。用經燒肉醬汁醃製的肉片緊緊包住飯糰,然後煎 香。煎好後的飯糰略帶醬油的焦香風味,裏面的飯充分 地將肉濃厚的精華吸收。這種肉跟米飯的完美結合一定 能俘虜您的心。 Onigiri- a popular Japanese snack is essentially a rice ball, filled with different ingredients and wrapped in seaweed (nori) in a traditionally triangular shape. Meat-wrapped onigiri on the other hand is slightly different and is said to have originated from Miyazaki prefecture. The rice ball is wrapped with marinated pork slices on the outside, and grilled until crispy. The juice from the meat gets absorbed into the rice inside, which is sure to tantalize your taste buds!

蘋果糖 Candied Apples 鮮 豔 奪目的紅色蘋果糖 是日本祭典 不 可或缺的一種小 食。在祭典上不難看到日本小孩嚷着要蘋果糖的情景。 在日本紅蘋果插上木筷子,沾上甜絲絲的紅色糖漿,便 大功告成。蘋果糖其實與我們的冰糖葫蘆類似,現在很 多店家都加入其他季節性的水果,如草莓、葡萄等,製成 不同款式的水果糖。 Candied apples are the most common sweet of choice at Japanese festivals. The skewered apples are dipped into red-colored syrup to form a glossy layer. It is very similar to the candied apples seen during Halloween. Most food stalls have now expanded the variety to include candied strawberries, grapes and other fruits which they also use to make as delicious confectioneries.

關東煮 Oden

在日本各地都能夠找到關東煮的蹤影。關東及關西兩種都以 昆布和鰹魚節熬成湯頭,但兩者在調味上有稍微不同。前者 以濃味醬油、味醂和酒來調味,味道帶甜;後者以淡味醬油、 鹽來調味,味道較為清淡。熱烘烘的關東煮非常適合於大地 回春仍有一絲絲寒意的時候賞用。 A wide selection of ingredients from boiled eggs to radish, fish cakes, tofu and more, simmer in a broth made from dashi, soy sauce, mirin and sake. The origins of this popular street snack came from the widespread hotpot culture in Japan. The taste of this steamy dish varies among different parts of Japan. It tastes sweeter in the Kanto area while it is lighter in the Kansai area. Warm and comforting, Odens are a hit in winter! Spring 2018

HK Express cares about our Guests’ health, safety and comfort onboard Safety first • Please read the safety instruction card in the back of each seat and pay special attention to our cabin crew during the safety demonstration at the beginning of each flight. • We value the comfort and safety of each of our Guests, including those with infants. All infants must be seated on the lap of an adult for the duration of the flight unless an additional seat has been purchased. Please be advised that your infant must however be strapped onto the adult’s lap with the infant seatbelt during takeoff and landing, and at any other time as instructed by the crew. • Laptops, Tablet and AV equipment must be switched off when the seatbelt sign is on.

These exercises can potentially reduce the risks of blood clots in the legs, or deep vein thrombosis (DVT). • If you are prone to poor leg circulation, wearing specially designed flight socks or compression stockings can be extremely beneficial. • We recommend that our Guests try to minimize caffeine and alcohol consumption onboard to prevent health problems such as headaches, bloating and dehydration. Drinking water and fruit juices are the best options to keep your body suitably hydrated.
