Japan Corridor, the Japanese-language dorm space in Stone Davis Hall, also held several events last semester thanks to our wonderful Japanese TA, Misaki Mukai! Here’s a quick recap of some of the events that took place.
Japan Corridor Dinner #1

The menu for the second dinner event: yaki udon, dango, and wakame soup!
Misaki and some of our Japan Corridor residents made hot udon noodle bowls with onigiri rice balls, complete with furikake (rice seasoning). The kitchen in Stone Davis must have smelled amazing that night!
Japan Corridor Dinner #2
Japan Corridor hosted a second dinner event, with more guests including our Korean and Chinese TAs. The menu for this dinner included yaki udon (fried udon noodles), wakame soup (seaweed soup), and dango (rice flour dumplings). Thanks again to Misaki for helping put on these fun events with delicious foods, and helping us learn more about Japanese culture!

Bōnenkai (End of Year Party)
Japan Corridor’s last event of the fall semester was a Japanese End of Year Party, or Bōnenkai. Joined by the East Asian Language TAs, all corridor members ate warm wintery foods and celebrated everything good that happened in 2018. Thank you again to Misaki for organizing such a fun event!
