Experience the "Real Japan" Along the New 1,000 km Michinoku Coastal Trail

Located along the northeastern coastline of Japan’s main island, Honshu, in the rugged, rural, and rarely visited region of Tohoku, the Michinoku Coastal Trail spans over 1,000 km (~635 miles) cutting a path through traditional villages and modern cities with stunning views and world-class food around every corner. For day hikers and thru-hikers alike, the trail offers easy access to scenic hiking and both Western and traditional accommodations with campgrounds, hotels, and ryokans throughout. Not to mention plenty of natural hot springs, too… Field Mag

Steak Salad with Thai Dressing

This easy Thai Beef Salad gets a dunk in a gingery umami marinade, before a quick grill over high heat. You’ll mix up a crunchy salad of shredded red cabbage and herbs with zesty Thai dressing. We often serve it on its own, or with a side of Coconut Fried Rice, Asian Cucumber Salad, or Spring Rolls… The Modern Proper
