BRING JAPANESE FOOD INTO YOUR LIFE

A new year is a time for new beginnings. If you’re someone who wants to eat healthier in 2021, or who is tired of the same old diet, we have a suggestion. Pledge to have one Japanese meal a week for one year and see how it affects you. Order takeout from any of the Japanese restaurants in your region, and experiment with the cuisine. One week it could be sushi, the next ramen, the next a bento. See how incorporating Japanese food into your diet just once a week will give you a glimpse of its deliciousness and health benefits. Open your mind and explore the world of washoku. It will probably be the most fun you’ve ever had trying to eat healthy.

You’ll also begin to see beyond the stereotypes and get a better sense of the fullness of Japanese cuisine. And at the same time, you’ll be supporting your local restaurants during a difficult time for the industry. It’s a win-win. We hope you’ll give it a try and share the results with us via this website and on social media.
