Hello everyone. Recently, we have been seeing Halloween decorations in many places around town, and Maido has also started to carry Halloween products. We have a limited number of items, so if you are interested in any of them, please come to the store as soon as possible.
This week, we will also introduce some recipes for Halloween-themed dishes and how people spend Halloween in Japan. There is a Japanese event called Obon, a series of summer events based on Buddhist and ancestral worship that enshrine and celebrate the spirits of ancestors, and some people call it a Japanese Halloween. However, Halloween over there is different from here. We hope you find it interesting.
