On this episode, we take you on a culinary tour of Saitama Prefecture's diverse international community as we meet non-Japanese restaurant owners who serve dishes from their homelands to both warm the hearts of their compatriots and delight the locals. We visit Bless from Cameroon who cooks some of her hearty banga soup in Kasukabe, Cypriot Hasan who prepares sweet baklavas in Sayama, Ukrainian-born Luda who whips up a batch of her savory pelmeni dumplings in Kawaguchi as well as a few others!
