Onsen Dinner II

Of all the courses that arrived, this was the most beautiful. Small rice dumplings arrived in separately in bowls soaked in a broth (a.k.a., special sauce). The exterior was painted with food coloring.

The shell was a chewy rice paste and the interior a mixture of meats and vegetables. Surprisingly, this was eaten with a spoon.

Just behind the bowls is the menu written Chinese style (vertically). Each vertical entry represents a single course. You can imagine how long this meal lasted.
