DESCRIPTION
The warm spring weather encouraged FN to take two trips this month! The first is a short hike at Genko Borui in Imazu. Just minutes from Tenjin, this walking course is full of history and includes a beautiful panorama view of the bay from atop Bishamon-yama. Next, we take off to nearby Karatsu City and share some of the historic, cultural and natural sites the city has to offer, including the recently opened and highly recommended Kyushu Olle Karatsu Course. Meanwhile this month, we check out Fukuoka’s new Owl Cafe in Hakata, taste authentic Cambodian fare at “Sabaina” in Jonan-ku, and take a lap around “Hakata’s kitchen” - Yanagibashi Market, where you’ll find Fukuoka’s freshest fish, vegetables, meat and other surprising local produce. We also meet NYC chef Kyle Ricks, and chat to him about his Nakasu restaurant “Serre”. You can win a four-course meal for two at Serre, cooked by Kyle and valued at ¥10,000 (beverages not included).

Kyushu’s biggest annual fashion event takes
place in Fukuoka City this March, showcasing
the local fashion industry with great lineup
of events, fashion shows, and sales. The con-
cept is to attract stylish visitors from both
Kyushu and abroad to create buzz around
budding Fukuoka’s fashion scene. This year’s
motto is “Play! FUKU-OKA!”. A large se-
lection of shops in Hakata, Tenjin, Daimyo,
Yakuin and Imaizumi hold special sales and
events, turning Fukuoka City into a massive
playground for fashion. The 2014 festival
mascot is “Licca-chan” (similar to USA’s
Barbie doll) known as fashion’s biggest fan
in Japan! The main event, FACo is the grand
finale on Mar. 23.
Cat cafes are so 2013! This year the trend
is definitely owl cafes, and Fukuoka’s first
opened inside the Kawabata Arcade this Jan-
uary. After an explanation of rules and proto-
col, assistants place owls of various breeds
and sizes on customers’ arms, shoulders and
heads. The birds seem to enjoy being stroked
and don’t mind cameras without flashes.

The food at Sabaina (which means "really fun"
in Khmer) is made using Cambodia's famed
raw black pepper and other spices. While the
aroma is spicy, the flavor is mellow and de-
licious. Have a refreshingly hoppy Angkor

YANAGIBASHI MARKETY
anagibashi Market, or ‘Hakata’s kitchen’ as it is sometimes known, has been supplying Fukuoka's restaurants and
residents alike with the freshest fish, vegetables, meat and other local produce for nearly 100 years. We visited the
charming arcade on a Saturday morning where we sampled delicious seasonal treats like strawberry mochi and
grilled oysters, and discovered intriguing new ingredients such as blood clams and mirugai, which are spitting shell-
fish - don’t get too close! At one stall, we saw how traditional methods are used to make the katsuboshi (dried fish flakes) in
dashi, which gives soba and udon broths their flavour. The stall owners were friendly and welcoming and we left with a mix of
delicacies for an al fresco lunchtime feast. Visit and discover Yanagibashi’s charm for yourself!
Arrive as early as possible for best from the catch of the day.
The selection goes beyond the basics found at most supermarkets.

F ollowing a Mongol invasion in 1274,
the shogunate ordered 20km of
stone wall to be built along different
parts of Hakata Bay to defend against a sec-
ond attack. The longest section of this fortifi-
cation was approximately 3km, in Imazu in the
city’s west. A 200m section was excavated
and is now a National Historic Site. In addition
to the ruins, this short hike takes you through
the surrounding pine grove - an iconic feature
around Japan’s coastline - the beautiful Naga-
hama swimming beach, and the magnificent
panorama from the top of Bishamon-yama.
Take a few hours to enjoy some of Fukuoka’s
hidden natural and cultural treasures!
FUKUOKA-NOW.COM/GENKOBORUI
The HikeThe first half of the hike is a gentle stroll
through the residential area of Imazu and
the pine grove that runs along the Nagaha-
ma coastline and is home to the fortification
ruins. This is followed by a climb to the top of
nearby Bishamon-yama, which commands a
beautiful panorama of the bay, including the
area covered earlier in the hike. The return
passes through the very old Shofuku Temple
and surrounding streets before getting back
on the bus. Details online: fukuoka-now.com/

When it comes to haute cuisine, New Yorker Kyle Ricks
knows his onions. He has worked in top end NYC eat-
eries, alongside famous fusion chefs such as David
Bouley, and privately for A-list celebrities such as Jay-
Z, Beyonce and Jerry Seinfeld, catering to their sometimes ‘finicky’
requirements. Kyushu’s energy, people, and palm trees first attracted
him to Fukuoka, which he finds relaxing compared to the Big Apple.
At Serre, his ‘New York Style French’ restaurant in the Nakasu dis-
trict, diners can enjoy his innovative cooking, such as slow roasted
fish with balsamic pumpkin puree and apple, in a natural setting
overlooking the river. Serre is French for greenhouse - whilst Kyle
enjoys sourcing fresh ingredients at Yanagibashi market or from his
friend’s farm in Saga, he has set up his own nursery on site to grow
herbs he cannot find. His customers seem to ‘really dig it’ and he
sees Fukuoka as an exciting city on the cusp of ‘something great’; in
other words, a fertile ground for planting the seeds of new culinary
ventures. Serre HP: http://www.serre.jp

Karatsu GetawayK
aratsu is perhaps best known for Karatsu Kunchi, its spectacular an-
nual festival, its historic castle, or the famous, freshly-served (live!)
squid dishes. While these are all excellent reasons to visit Karatsu,
there’s so much more. Fukuoka Now’s editor Nick was joined by Kamil,
our hiking expert, to explore beyond the basics. Here are some of the historic,
cultural and natural sites they found, as well as the recently opened and highly
recommended Kyushu Olle Karatsu walking course. Access our website for de-
tails, photos, maps and more to plan your Karatsu getaway!

Nijinomatsubara is one of the three largest pine-covered areas (mat-
subara) in Japan, stretching along a 5km arc of the Karatsu coastline
in the shape of a rainbow (niji). With a road running along its length
amidst some 1 million black pine trees, Nijinomatsubara acts as a
scenic gateway to Karatsu.
Situated at the foot of Kagamiyama, just seven minutes walk from
Nijinomatsubara Station, this traditional Karatsu-yaki (ware) work-
shop is known for crafting beautiful ceramics used in tea ceremony.
In addition to the gallery, it also offers a rare opportunity to tour the
workshop and experience making or decorating (etsuke) Karatsu-yaki.

Just 800m from Karatsu Castle, the Former Takatori Residence of-
fers a glimpse into a different period of Japanese history. This seaside
Meiji Era estate of Saga coal mine magnate Koreyoshi Takatori (1850-
1927) features magnificent gardens and more than 30 lavish rooms.
It escaped demolition when the family could no longer maintain
it, and was kindly donated to the city in 1997. In 1998 it was designat-
ed an Important Cultural Asset of Japan, and has since been care-
fully restored to original condition and opened to the public in 2007.
The main residence was built over 100 years ago in a style that
was very modern for the time. Takatori enjoyed the finer aspects of
Japanese culture, with a spectacular Noh theatre and tea house on
premises. His fine taste shows in the mix of western and Japanese
style that is a special feature of the house, including imported Euro-
pean lamps, Italian marble, western fireplace and furniture. Audio
guidance in several languages provided. English speaking guides
available sometimes. http://www.karatsu-kankou.jp/takatori.html

Bright and airy, the cozy dining room overlooks a bay.
Nestled amongst trees in the mountainside, this father and son work-
shop has been producing top-end and highly appraised Karatsu ware
for over thirty years. The remote location makes it hard to reach, but
it’s worth the effort! Call in advance to arrange for a visit to their tea
house which is surrounded by fifty sakura trees and views of the val-
ley below. Being served matcha by the artists, using cups they made,
makes the tea ceremony all the more personal. As they say, Karatsu-
yaki is not just for display, but to be used and enjoyed. http://doheiga-
ma.hananusubito.net
Yobuko’s famous squid ikitsukuri, or live squid sashimi, is hard to
imagine without quality soy sauce, and local maker Matsukin provides
around 90% of the soy sauce used in the area. Amazake ice cream is
their latest hit product. Amazake (甘酒) is a traditional non-alcoholic
Japanese drink made from kouji (麹), or fermented rice, and said to be
very healthy (think Asia’s yoghurt). www.kamada.co.jp

Kyushu Olle Karatsu Course
Olle trails originated on Korea’s Jeju Island as a unique
way to see and experience the area, utilising old paths
and routes inaccessible to cars. The courses are de-
signed to be more than just a nature hike but a path of
culture. There are several Olle courses in Kyushu, but one of the
newest and closest to Fukuoka City is here in Karatsu.
In just over 11km, the Karatsu course manages to take in a
wonderful balance of natural, cultural and historic experiences
ranging from Japanese gardens, castle ruins and traditional farms
and workshops, stretching from mountains to the unique coast-
line. The variety of scenery is difficult to rival, and every season
offers something new!
The course is clearly marked with signs and ribbons; all you
need is a sturdy pair of runners. Be sure to access our website
for many more photos and details on this fun and healthy way to
see Karatsu like never before!

ly" in the Hakata area, concerts at tem-
ples and other fun events. Free copies of

◊ Help Reduce the Stray Cat Population City Hall has received a large number of
complaints about stray cats. More than
80% of the cats that the City euthanizes
are kittens. Please refrain from feeding
stray cats to help reduce the population of
ownerless cats. If you own a cat, please keep
it indoors, spay or neuter it and make sure it
has some form of identification, such as ID
tags or a microchip implant. More and more
neighborhoods are enacting measures to
combat stray cats. For more information,
call the Animal Welfare & Management Cen-
ter (092-891-1231).
