An old style café serving tasty al dente gelatin made from agar weed harvested off Oshima and Kozushima Islands: Irie blends fragrant agar weed from Oshima Island with its springy cousin from Kozushima Island in just the right portions! It's a time-consuming process they go through everyday, but the gelatin that results has a delightful briny flavor and enjoyable al dente texture! It is harmoniously paired with red peas that have slowly simmered for 8 hours, their own homemade molasses and bean jam that has been strained until silky smooth. It tastes so good you can't put the spoon down! I was treated to the culinary delights of an old style café with a penchant for choice ingredients and time-honored recipes in an atmosphere you might equate to an inlet where a ship could furlough its sails. Pun intended. (Irie actually means "inlet" in Japanese.)
