Hello. I'm Hyunwoong Seo from Mini, a bookstore specializing in Japanese books. After publishing ⁌Ramen Odyssey in Tokyo⁍ last year, it's nice to be back talking about food after a long time. It's hard not to feel a little disappointed that we're only talking about ramen.
So, this time, we've selected a selection of delicacies that give you a taste of the local colors of Japan. As you may know, Japanese food is often simple, so it doesn't have the variety of flavors that we have in Korea, but I think it will be useful for you to know about it.
Whether you're a foodie who loves Japan's gourmet cuisine or a traveler who wants to explore new flavors, we hope this book will inspire you to deepen your appreciation for Japanese food. Once you know the flavors of a region, you'll feel more comfortable with its people and culture. Now, let's go on a culinary journey across the country.
Thank you.
