Most people have preconceptions when it comes to Japanese food. Silver screen ideals and miscommunications have created stereotypes of raw fish and rice that were hard to break, however, true Japanese dining is a fascinating and complex artform.
The principles of traditional Japanese dining revolve around the ideas of nature and harmony. All the elements of a meal should be in harmony, the elements of the dish, each of the dishes on the table, and the diner - with the emphasis on nature. Every effort is taken to prevent any of the natural flavours from being masked.
