Yoshie Hattori met Steven Forth in Shibuya, Tokyo in the winter of 1980. For him it was love (lust anyway) at first sight. They began to travel together, Japan, Europe, Sri Lanka, back to Japan and then got married in 1981 in Ottawa, Canada. They lived in Tokyo from 1982 to 1988, where their three children Kaito, Kasumi and Kenji were born, and then in Vancouver from 1989 to 2006. The Vancouver house, in Kitsilano, was a rambling house of sorts, open to all, with a garden of herbs, flowers, sculptures and odd findings.
This blog is a collection of recipies and thoughts on food and culture for their now grown children.
