Daikon Mountain

This past Thursday was my first Thanksgiving away (far away) from home, but lucky for me it was not without Sara (sister), who hopped on a plane and made her long weekend an overseas one as well. Obviously Thanksgiving is not celebrated in these parts and in addition turkey's are mighty hard to come by (though I don't eat them anyways), so it was instead a Japanese Thanksgiving, Izakaya (basically Japanese version of pub) style. Good times were had by all, with friends and family, beer and no shoes, sashimi and mountain potatoes. And from now on as far as I am concerned, no Japanese Thanksgiving is complete without a mountainous Daikon salad, by far, the food high light of the night. Hope everyone had a joyful fourth Thursday of November, wherever you happened to be!
