Little Tokyo came alive with the sound of pounding Taiko drums during the 71st Annual Nisei week parade on August 21st. Streets were lined with happy parade fans including costumed parade watchers who celebrated Japanese pop culture in their own colorful way. Capping the festivities will be a
sake tasting on Saturday August 20 at the Kyoto Grand Hotel. Sponsored by the
Social Sake Club, more than 50 kinds of Japanese sake will be poured.
