  2. @Traveling Hawk,
    Thank you,Traveling Hawk!
    Yes,this is typical Japanese New Year side dish.
    Japanese "Osechi" is healthy,but it is too stereotyped,lack originality,I think.In Japan,every year,every family,it is same.Osechi is too traditional,old-style for me.

    You too,Traveling Hawk,
    Un An Nou Fericit!
    I wish you a lot of happiness and joy in the New Year!
