[HOHO #000 Report] We held a #cali food and sake tasting party on a midsummer night, where Yucali served food made with seasonal summer ingredients!

Aug 29, 2016
On a summer day, the chirp of cicadas fills the air. Together with our friends, we held the 0th anniversary of HOHO Smile EVENTS (hereafter referred to as HOHO)! HOHO #000. HOHO is a project organized by KIGI, Aoki Musubi, and FH (=FASHION HEADLINE) to create "spaces for experiences" and "spaces for empathy," connecting hearts through live experiences, creations, workshops, and more.

The first HOHO gathering was held at OUR FAVOURITE SHOP, located a short walk from Shirokane-Takanawa Station, Ebisu Station, and Hiroo Station. This former press factory is a shop selling KIKOF tableware and furniture, created by the KIGI duo, as well as D-BROS products and CACUMA clothing.

"# cali Food & Sake Tasting Party"

That night, HOHO was held at OUR FAVOURITE SHOP for the "# cali Food & Sake Tasting Party." Yucali, who started catering in earnest last year, served up an abundance of seasonal ingredients on KIKOF plates, creating dishes that were not only delicious to look at, but also delicious to eat. In addition, a sake master friend of Yucali's selected sake to complement Yucali's Japanese cuisine.

The conversations between the friends who gathered at HOHO were also lively as they were filled with food and drinks. A lively gathering attended by Yucali's friends and those involved in the future of HOHO...

Food and drinks will also help you have lively conversations with the friends you've gathered.
