Setsubun Ehomaki 2025 - Eat the lucky charm "Ehomaki" to bring good fortune

Monday, February 3, 2025

This year's Setsubun is on Sunday, February 2nd. And this year's lucky direction is "southwest"!

Setsubun is the day before the beginning of spring, the last day of winter, and is a day to ward off evil spirits and welcome good fortune into the new season.

We had a delicious and blessed Setsubun, enjoying three kinds of ehomaki and hosomaki from Restaurant Himawari, as well as ehomaki from the Asano family!
