I was asked by the head of Sushi Dragon to be a representative to sample Japanese & East Asian food products as well as Sakè & spirits. By going to Japanese restaurants, we have all sampled JFC distributed products, the most ubiquitous being Kikko-man Sho-yu/soy sauce which is de rigueur on almost every Sushi bar counter worth its salt.
I sampled the exquisitely fruity mellow aged Kobè brandy; Awamori by Okinawa O-cho- which is similar to Japanese Sho-chu- but made from Indica rice; Kibaichu-, a type of Sho-chu- full of the rich scent of green unripe plums picked when spring skies are azure w/ fluffy ivory white clouds with a light refreshing sweetness. There were Sakè of all types manned by informative Sakè representatives.
The Japanese food stalls provided a plethora of small samples of Wagyu (wah ghee yoo)/premium Japanese beef, Ra-men, To-fu, Sashimi, multitude of other prepared Japanese food products suited for the restaurant trade.
Another section had Japanese chef knives, specialised Japanese kitchen equipment, restaurant dinnerware & accessories to suit restaurant requirements.
All these foods & libations can be ordered by calling JFC, but this is for the trade only since it is a wholesale operation. JFC is the big 3 of the Japanese-East Asian food distributors in the USA if not the world which stocks thousands of items to fulfill the needs of all restauranteurs.
A definite must for stocking especially Japanese or East Asian influenced restaurants. 5 Yelp stars.
