SFV JACL Hosts Virtual Cherry Blossom Tour
Posted On
Kimiaki Chiba is an accountant whose family has, for many years, had a very successful Japanese restaurant in Sun Valley, a community in the San Fernando Valley.
In Japan, his family lived across from a park that grew numerous cherry trees. Each spring, communities from far and wide would gather at the park to view the cherry blossoms with snow-capped Mt. Fuji as the backdrop.
On April 18 at 7 p.m., the San Fernando Valley JACL is sponsoring a virtual cherry blossom tour of Japan narrated by Kimi, as his friends call him. After the tour, as time permits, Kimi will present a sushi recipe.
