The Taste of JASH signature food series began in 2019, taking us on an imaginative journey across Japan to savor the flavors of its many regions. This time, we’re thrilled to revisit Hokkaido and Tonkatsu Tamafuji for another delicious experience. Join us as we continue exploring the cuisine of our Sister Cities!

Middle and high school students can experience hands-on Japanese cultural activities, including ikebana, calligraphy, soroban, tea ceremony, yukata wearing, bon dance, karate, and more. These experiences complement classroom learning and deepen appreciation of Japanese traditions.
