Oh, Japan: Rest Your Chops!

Rest your Chops! ​

Hello everyone it me again your lovable media mod Ella Serenity. I have an adorable article for you.

SO upon researching on what to type my next article on I came across these adorable chopsticks rests and said to myself. "I just HAVE to do an article on them"

So here we are me typing up my article for you all to read and comment on. Which I love reading the comments on my articles BTW thanks. If there is something you would like to see me do an article on feel free to comment below and I'll see what I can do.

​

Anywhoo back to the article. How many of you would like to sit down at a meal, whether traditional Japanese or any meal and have these cute little things sitting on your table to rest your chops on? For some you might have to put down the fork and learn to use chopsticks. It isn't that hard once you get the hang of it.

These little rests were created to keep chopsticks off the table (for you germaphobe out there this is just for you). Some restaurants will provide customers with wooden chopsticks wrapped in paper, giving diners the fun opportunity to fold their own rests. Meanwhile the fancies restaurants in Japan you might come across one with the non- disposable versions. Hashioki, another name for chopstick rests are made out of ceramic, but there are some that are made of glass, and others made of flexible aluminum.


"Gotta love having options right?"

​

Some rests are shaped into animal themes, food, or even favorite Disney characters. Whatever your preference these little things will keep your hashi (Japanese for chopsticks) nice and clean.

So how many would use these cute little things to keep their chops/ hashi's clean??

I like the little wiener dog ones and the bear ISN"T IT ADWABLE!!

Until next time readers. Ta ta for now
