Spoon & Tamago

We begin with an international blog based in New York City. Written and maintained by artist, Johnny Strategy, Spoon Tamago covers the latest happenings in Japanese art and design. It’s a huge blog which does a pretty good job of capturing the zeitgeist of Japanese culture. The strong emphasis on aesthetics includes plenty of posts on cuisine, with subjects including the creation of laser-cut seaweed as well as the art of Makizushi. Visitors will also find numerous wacky posts on the site – the article about sushi suitcase covers is one that stands out and provides a rather odd reminder of the versatility of Japanese cuisine!
