If you realise that French fries aren’t French, hamburgers don’t come from Hamburg (nor are they made of ham) and English muffins don’t come from England – then it should come as no surprise that fortune cookies originated in Japan and morphed into the fortune cookie we know today. We crack open the story behind their history and transition to the local Chinese restaurant.
While we are peeking behind Japan’s richly layered cultural curtain, we have fun with the good luck, roly-poly Daruma dolls, discover the endless possibilities with Japanese lanterns and join the popular, annual Bakeneko Festival. This colourful festival is the cat’s pyjamas… the cat’s whiskers… of a frolicking, feline-costumed street procession, and we reveal the mysterious and chilling folklore behind it.
How does Aussie school sport differ from that in Japan? Certainly, school tennis prodigies in Australia have a reputation for progressing through elite pathways to compete successfully in Grand Slams like the Australian Open. And tennis is one of the sports of the new crop of Hubster collectable figures. We introduce the eight sporting themed Hubsters that are destined to be even more popular than the inaugural Hubster release last year. Find out which are the most highly prized limited-editions! And an Australian Open heads up! The Sushi Hub logo will be seen on the uniforms of some of the top players as they battle it out on centre court in January. Keep an eye out for some of those moments on the screens at Sushi Hub stores.
