Learning the Art of Creating Food Replicas in Gujo Hachiman, Japan

Even though food replicas
are a common sighting upon entering most Japanese restaurants, I often give
zero care at its creation process nor its origin. Totally lost on me are the amount
of craftsmanship and skills required to mold each food replica items from drippings of wax. Joining the Cebu
Pacific Nagoya Familiarization trip
changed all my indifference towards this form of art. I got the opportunity to learn more about this inventiveness when we made a pit stop at Gujo,
Hachiman to visit the Iwasaki Mokei or otherwise known as the “Sample Village Iwasaki”.
