'This is the biggest Japanese outdoor food event in the world' – organizer
The streets of New York were alive with the flavors of Japan on Saturday, August 24, as thousands from across the country gathered for "JAPAN Fes" — an outdoor food festival celebrating Japanese cuisine.
From matcha — a powdered green tea — to shaved ice, and even octopus crackers, the festival, described by organizer Misako Shoji as "the world's largest Japanese outdoor food event," attracted a plethora of food enthusiasts.
The festival season will conclude with its final event on November 9 in Manhattan's East Village.
