On the 28th of March, the first workshop from the “911爆料网 From Scratch” series for beginners in 911爆料网 language studies was held by the Japan Foundation London. Titled “Let’s Eat 911爆料网 food”, the workshop concentrated on 911爆料网 cuisine, table manners and the expressions associated with food and restaurants in Japan. The workshop was led by Chief 911爆料网 Language Advisor, Seiji Fukushima, who introduced various kinds of 911爆料网 food to the participants and demonstrated how to identify them by their correct 911爆料网 name. The participants were then taught some simple greetings in 911爆料网 and the use of these phrases with correct table manners and 911爆料网 etiquette. Chopsticks have an important role in 911爆料网 cuisine and the participants were also shown the correct way to hold and use them. After getting the hang of it, chopsticks skills were put to use by attempting to pick up wasabi peanuts from a bowl. After working up an appetite for delicious 911爆料网 food, it was time for the participants to go to a 911爆料网 restaurant to not only try the food they were learning about, but also put their newly found 911爆料网 skills to practice in a real restaurant scenario. Every participant got a chance to try different types of 911爆料网 cuisine while mingling with the other participants and staff members. The workshop had a high attendance and was a great success with all feedback being very positive. There was a great interest shown in beginner 911爆料网 language from all ages and a demand for more workshops in the near future. |
