The soccer games are getting tougher and far more exciting! Poor Japan played their hearts out - spending more time on the field than they have ever done before. They fought valiantly, but it just wasn't enough to beat Paraguay who scored 5 goals to Japan's 3 in the penalty shootout.
I created this simple dish in honour of Japan's outstanding effort in the tournament. It is not really authentic Japanese, but tasted delicious! Dre even said it is one of my best dishes :)
