Hit Hot Pot Day

Hi members!

“Nabemono”, simply known as “nabe” or “one pot dishes” (”hot pot”), refers to all varieties of Japanese steamboat dishes and are mostly stews and soups served during cold seasons.

Hot pot consists of a simmering pot of stock placed at the centre of dining tables and shared by multiple people. Ingredients are added into the pot and cooked at the table, and diners may pick the cooked ingredients they want from the pot.

Eating together from a shared pot is considered an important feature of “nabemono”, as East Asians believe that eating from the same pot creates closer relationships between people.

Thus, we would like to extend our invitation to you to come down for our Hit Hot Pot Day, where you can meet friends, new mates in this bonding session and experience the feeling of nabemono!

(Disclaimer: This is not the usual cooking session where we teach you to prepare the dishes.)

Date: Saturday, 10 November 2007
Time: 12pm to 1.30pm
Venue: IT 5-5-15
Admission: $9 (members); $11 (non-members)

To register, email Janet at janet@tpjcg.org or call/SMS 96780395. Please provide your full name, school, admission number, year of study and contact number!
