On festival days shop owners set up food stalls known as yatai and outdoor stands on the road at parks or paths approaching shrines. Festival foods tend to be unhealthy and delicious. After the event and considering the amount of alcohol you can consume along with some sushi i guess it s a fair deal.
This event was sponsored by the japanese restaurant association on november 9th. Yakitori is essentially various kinds of grilled chicken on sticks. Festivals have a great variety of treats and sweets and are one great way to enjoy japanese street food at a reasonable price often costing less than 500 yen. These are the most popular.
Many types of japanese foods are available for sale at the festival and there are games for children as well. Try these dishes at an obon festival near you or try making them at home. The price of admission was 60 per adult which i thought was a little steep. Today especially in the west there are a number of traditional japanese foods found at the festival as well as hawaiian chinese american and other asian fusion dishes.
