hiyee :D
i would like to learn more about japanese cultures.can anyone tell mi or recommand any website that i can go to find out...?
eg, y would japanese eat red bean rice when there is some special occasions? y japanese from Osaka wanna throw salts at those ppl that they think are unlucky?(see this from the Risou no kekkon ) :mrgreen:
:mrgreen: rice? i m not veri sure too....but i remember 1 pt that Mari's(Tokiwa Takako) father ask Mari's mum to throw salts at Otaki's (Takenouchi Yutaka) mum...as to ward off the bad luck... :mrgreen:
I'll look for sites which have articles about Japanese culture. Dun remember where I put the links. May take some time.
Has anyone ever tried a Japanese breakfast? Especially a raw egg mixed into rice, ugh! It looked awful, tasted "different".
Had twice while I was in Tokyo. Dunno why I had twice.
Gotta love miso soup and pickles too :hehe:
