| Fukui |
Spent a few days in Fukui to have a taste of Echizen 越前 crab (a type of snow crab) that is in season.

After eating 3 crabs, in a restaurant in Fukui town, in Mikuni town right next to the sea, and in Awara onsen town, the best deal and overall experience goes to Awara.
The package consists of a night in the
onsen hotel Grandia 芳原, I have chosen a Japanese style room with private onsen, a set
dinner with Echizen crab and breakfast.

A private onsen is a wonderful treat, very peaceful atmosphere. Both dinner and breakfast are beautifully presented and very tasty.

The only drawback is that Awara town has
