The fifteen night's moon
means the Full Moon.
Why THE full moon?
It's because of the most beautiful moon of the year... Japanese think.
It's a part of harvest festival in old days.
We celebrated the all the crops we got through the summer and thanking for the good harvest to the moon.
We eat Tsukimi Dango (Moon viewing rice dumpling).
Normally 15 Dango are placed on the table near a window you can see the moon really well.
Sweets with rabbit design are also eaten at this festival.
It's because Japanese people see a rabbit making mochi on the surface of the moon... can you see the craters making a pattern... maybe.
I have Usagi manju (rabbit shaped steamed bun)
£1.50 each.
White bean paste with steamed wheat bun.
I also have some Dango dumpling.
£2.00 for 5.
or £1.50 on skewer.
Strawberry Mochi, too!
Please pop in.
