Lambassador Festival

Lamb meat is a popular ingredient in various cuisines worldwide, and in Japan, it is commonly used in jingisukan (Genghis Khan), a delicious dish that originated in Hokkaido. The dish usually consists of thinly sliced lamb or mutton, along with vegetables like onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms, grilled on a special convex-shaped skillet. If you are a lamb enthusiast, the Lambassador Festival is an event in Tokyo that you should not miss. The festival celebrates Australian lamb, and attendees can savor a variety of lamb-based dishes, including lamb and chickpea stews, lamb-filled nikuman, and even lamb-based hot dogs. While entry to the event is free, you will need yen if you plan to sample the dishes on offer.
