Real Japanese food...
linked from Tokyo Mango -
You know how fusion cuisine seemed to have taken over the culinary world these days.. it's not a bad thing coz' we get the best of both worlds although sometimes the food that is fusioned can be quite bizarre.
I still love the traditional kaiseki meals that really followed decades of tradition to prepare the individual dishes. Now the Japanese govt has initiated a program to authenticate 'real' Japanese food from the 'fakes'. SO what is real and what is fake? I seriously can't tell coz I'm not a true-blue foodie but here's the article that got my interest.
The program will start in Bangkok (oohh no! Fuji Japanese Restaurant chain will definitely be affected) and extending to Shanghai and Taipei (Ohh dear, will Jogoya be affected also?)... then later Amsterdam, London, LA, Paris etc.
Well, do keep a look out soon for their government approved Japanese restaurants with the symbol of a pair of chopsticks holding a cherry blossom petal in front of the rising sun if it ever reach Singapore...
what will be your take on this? Ajisen Ramen more appealing or Authentic Japanese food ?
Let me know what you think :)
