Japanese food abroad, awesome or not quite right
What's your experience of Japanese food abroad, whether in your home country or other countries you've visited? Most of my experiences in Vancouver, Canada, matched the quality and attention to detail you'd expect in Japan. Have you had mediocre or inauthentic Japanese cuisine in your travels? Tell us about your hits and misses. The photo - a matcha latte in Vancouver, Canada.

Recommendations for next Christmas?
While its somewhat fresh in your mind, what gifts came into your house this Christmas and / or New Year, that you thought were really nice things to receive and / or really good buys, that you think might make a good present for someone else in the future?

Under the radar winter festivals
There are some winter festivals that get a lot of hype, like the Sapporo Snow Festival, for instance. However, as someone who doesn't like crowds, I enjoy lower-key festivals a whole lot more. Do you have any favorite winter festivals that aren't really tourist-trappy? What makes them fun or unique?
