I sometimes go to "Saibokuhamu" in Hidaka City, a very delicious ham, sausage and meat shop in Saitama Prefecture, just between Kawagoe and Sayama City. The grounds are quite spacious and there is a meat shop (mainly pork) which offers other agricultural products as well, a restaurant, a small pleasure ground and a hot spring bath. The ham and sausages of this shop have won many medals at the international food quality competition of the German Agricultural Society (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft). The restaurant also serves the delicious roasted pork and I can only highly recommend it (an English language brochure is available, too). There is a bus service from Seibu railway Sayamashi Station once the hour; however it is probably most convenient to go there by car.

The pork cutlet looks so good!
