Shippoku Cuisine
The feast begins with steaming hot 'ohire' (fish fin) soup amidst numerous large platters arranged around a vermilion-lacquered round table. Cheers erupt with every dish, from the melt-in-your-mouth sweet braised pork to fresh sashimi and Nagasaki tempura. This banquet cuisine, nurtured in Nagasaki, blends Japanese, Chinese, and Western styles, allowing Japanese, Chinese, and Nanban cuisines to merge at a single table. The tradition involves gathering around a large round table regardless of social status, sharing dishes from large platters onto small individual plates. You can sense the remnants of Southern Barbarian (Nanban) influence in the pastry-wrapped pasty, and the shadow of China in the braised pork. Surrounding yourself with such internationally diverse dishes feels like tasting the history of Nagasaki itself. It is a cuisine that makes you want to gather with friends around a table for a lively moment.
