Reiwa Afternoon Tea at Cafe an-an!
/My students and I went to eat amazing Japanese sweets at Cafe an-an in Portslade.
We had Japanese afternoon tea themed around Reiwa (令和), the new Japanese era which started on May 1st.
My favourite was the elderflower tempura (so good!) and 水信玄餅 mizu shingen mochi - the clear "raindrop" mochi.
Also, I learned that the Japanese word for elderflower is エルダーフラワー (erudaafurawaa).
Noriko-san, ありがとうございました! Thank you very much for having us!
