Category:Japanese Food & Drinks

Many Japan Fans love Japanese food & drinks. Therefore, we often go out to eat at Japanese restaurants and buy Japanese drinks at local shops.

Those of us who like cooking and baking regularly gather in Rosa for a fun workshop or an event with Japanese food & drinks, like making sushi for the homeless.

For our own dishes we like to be inspired by Japanese cuisine, therefore you’ll find Japanese recipes – both traditional and fushion – on this site. A special category are our “pandesserts”, with pan Asian desserts, cakes, and more sweet delicacies & delights.

If you also have a recipe to share, or you would like to invite us to try out your restaurant, shop or tea room, just let us know!
