New year's food=Osechi(おせち料理)

In new year's day, we eat various "Osechi" food served in "Jyubako"(the black laquer box).















Kuri-kinton(sweet maron) , the yellow one in the "Jyubako" is one of my favorites.
Raw tuna on the left was delicious as well...!!















Another box of "Jyubako" has pink and white "Kamaboko"( steamed fish paste), yellow "Datemaki"(egg) and black "Kobumaki" (fish wrapped with seaweed).

On the right you see Mexican Taco-sald which you don't see in ordinary Japanese new year :P















This is "Nishime"(boiled vegetables). It's really good!














Left "Jyubako" has "Kohada"(sour fish), red shrimps and boiled fish.















To the left you see "Shimesaba" (chub mackerel)-which my brother made!

Fish on the right is "Tai" (porgy).
Japanese people loves porgy because the word "Medetai" (joyous event) includes the word "Tai".
