Blizzardboy | A Kiwi in Japan

Last weekend was the finale of the Chinese New Year. To celebrate (and seeing that we had missed the opening due to inclemant weather) we headed on down there on Sunday.
There are two China Towns in Japan - the one we visited in Yokohama and a smaller China Town in Kobe. Both are remnants of Japans isolationist past with these enclaves serving to minimise contact between Chinese and native Japanese.

Both China Towns today are popular tourist attractions and it was nice for us to visit there as it brought back a lot of memories of the good times we had in China and the great people we met there.

We went to a Taiwanese Restaurant - I think it was called Banwaro. I would like to post some directions here, but that will have to wait till Chooch gets back from work, as the restaurant was totally wonderful. We had chicken! Well not real chicken but vegetarian chicken. It has been six years since I had something like that (at the Atlantis in Bangkok).

On a side note, we had our first sale on aquaeffector.com!
