Because the pieces were so small, there was no need for a knife at the table so the bite-sized pieces could be picked up with chopsticks.

Walking along the streets of Stockholm, we came across a few of these men, whose sole job is to stand on a busy walkway all day to promote the restaurant. I guess he is bored and may be playing a game on his phone. He even has contingency plans for rain!

息子が修学旅行の「箸の研ぎ出し体験」で作った塗箸。アワビ貝や、卵殻などが埋め込まれた若狭のお箸を研いで模様を出していく体験です。 本物の「若狭塗」は貝殻や金箔などを色漆で何重にも塗り重ねているそうですが、体験用は、かぶれにくいカシューナッツの木から取った天然樹脂を使っているそうです。
