Zen Japanese Fast Food
Promoting a healthy lifestyle using Japanese ingredients and cooking methods, the Healthy Food & Green Festival is the second festival in the JapanTown three-part series that takes place August 22nd. The festival aims to enlighten New Yorkers about the many wholesome foods and flavors of Japan and how to incorporate them into American kitchens, ultimately increasing the understanding of Japanese culture through food. Starring in the festival are the flavorful offerings from international Japanese brands and local restaurants.
Health-conscious visitors can look forward to sampling some uniquely Japanese eats such as edamame vegetable gyoza, organic ramen noodle salad, misoyaki, organic Japanese vegetables, and Kikkoman soy products. Iced kukicha, hiyayako, hiyashi chuuka, and black sesame ice cream (all perfect for the summer heat) will also be offered. Debuting at the festival will be Ryokko Aojiru, the famous Japanese health drink made primarily from organically-grown barley. Additionally, samples of Tea's Tea green tea will be distributed by Ito En.
There will be demonstrations on the many versatile ways to utilize Japanese ingredients in everyday life.
Besides food, there will be entertainment, raffles for airline tickets to Japan, Japanese kawaii and anime products galore.
