Obihiro

When researching a new area it is of utmost importance to understand the local culture and high on the list of culturally relevant things to knowabout is FOOD. Here Joon is leading us in an experience of the local Obihiro culture.

Buta Don is a speciality of the Obihiro area and they make a special version called Bara Buta. Bara means Rose and Buta means Pig. The pork is layed out on top of the rice with a rose like pattern. The sauce is also a local speciality so altoghther thanks to Joon's leadership in this important matter we enjoyed a wonderful meal while waiting for Pastor Lee.
