March 3rd is Hinamatsuri (Doll’s Day or Girls’ Day), and on this day, we wish for healthy growth for the girls.
At our February lesson, we will make Chirashi-zushi (scattered sushi) and Cherrystone clam soup which are representative dishes for Girls’ Day.
Let’s celebrate Girls’ day with Japanese traditional dishes!

There are so many Japanese dishes and cultures that are not well known outside of Japan and I’m happy to introduce them to you! If you tested any of our recipes feel free to send us a photo and your comments and we will be happy to publish them, even if it wasn't a complete success! :)

Seeking the best balance of being free and living a stable life in this busy city, I enjoy kitchen gardening to deepen my connection with nature. Lately, I enjoy traveling to places I’ve never been and dancing Salsa/Kizomba there. Always a traveler at heart. Freelance web/graphic designer. Coffee & chocolate addict.
