To show gratitude for all the support Japan received after the 2011 East Japan earthquake and tsunami one year ago, the Japan Consulate presented this all day event at The Grove, a popular outdoor shopping center in Los Angeles.  The event showcased Japanese food, tourism, traditional culture and technology at various booths throughout The Grove.  Some of the highlights included a Kimono Show, Tea Ceremony, a signing by Simone Legno, creator of the Tokidoki brand, and
a Japanese Fashion show presented by Bubble Punch!
