Yes, I have feasted at Inakaya Watanabe at Saint Andrews and Jamil Road so many times that I am a pro wielding the chopsticks as I expertly navigate my plate of sushi, sashimi, and various other delicacies to my gaping maw.
Today is National Chopsticks Day.
It is observed each year on February 6th in honor of these ancient, versatile, and eco-friendly eating utensils used by a large portion those on the planet.
They originate around 1200 BC in China and have evolved from cooking implements to dining essentials.
This day is all about using chopsticks for Asian cuisine and appreciating their cultural significance.
I maintain a lacquered pair for my personal use and typically use those provided by the host at dining events.
