March 4th, 2021 A New Beach Clean-up Trend Begins in Japan FUTAMA x Youtheory Beach clean-up events are held at beaches across Japan. In Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, the Amatsu Surfing Club (Rep: Toshihiro Sekiya ) and FUTAMA FAMILY (Rep: Koji Yokoyama) have joined forces to clean the beach at Futama Beach every month for more than 20 years. Youtheory, an American company famous for its collagen supplements, recognized these volunteer efforts at Futama Beach and threw their support behind the community’s campaign for environmental beautification. Nearly 80 volunteers from inside and outside of the prefecture gathered on February 21 for the beach clean-up, including the former mayor of Kamogawa City, members of the prefectural assembly, professional surfers, and Youtheory staff. Trash bags in hand, the group cleaned up plastic, vinyl, empty cans, and other trash that had washed up on the beach. “We are very grateful for the support of companies like Youtheory. We hope that activities like ours will spread throughout Japan so that our children can run around the beaches barefoot without worrying about stepping on glass or other trash. We’ve got to start somewhere," said one participant. A new trend in Japanese beach clean-up is starting right here at Futama Beach. https://youtheory.co. 日刊ゲンダイ 2021年3月4日 日本のビーチクリーンに新しい風 FUTAMA x Youtheory 現在、多くの海岸で行われているビーチクリーン活動。千葉県鴨川市二夕間海岸でも天津サーフィンクラブ（関谷利博代表）、FTM Family （横山浩二統括責任者）が中心となり毎月行われ20年以上続いている。 そんな二夕間海岸の環境美化や地域ボランティア活動を評価したアメリカの企業でコラーゲンサプリで有名な「Youtheory」がサポート支援する事になった。 さる2月21日に行われたビーチクリーンでは前鴨川市長や県議会議員、プロサーファー、Youtheoryのスタッフなど県内外から80人近いボランティアが集まり、ゴミ袋を片手にビーチに流れ着いたプラスチックやビニール、空き缶などのゴミを一掃した。「こうして支援してくれる企業があるって本当にありがたいですね、各地で広がれば日本の海は子供たちが安心して裸足で走りまわれる海になる。まずはここからですね」とは参加者の声。 ここ二夕間海岸から日本のビーチクリーンの新しい風が吹きそうだ。 https://youtheory.co.jp/ @youtheory #youtheory #ユーセオリー #beachcleanup #nikkangendai #日刊ゲンダイ #ビーチクリーン #杉山大輔

(Hosted) @rockon_tokyo is opened by @kokimiyoshi whose first business - @kamoshita5neilroad is an established hotspot for those who have a weakness for sake and oden. Last week, I was invited to give the Omakase Menu at #RockonTokyo a try. Priced at an affordable $88++ per pax, it has the option of fancier supplements if one’s in the mood to splurge a little. As it stands, Executive Head Chef @katsuyuki_sekiya has put together a comprehensive parade of tastiness which is really decent. Here’s what he served that evening: 1. Housemade Tofu - It was flavourful and had the texture of panna cotta. To enjoy with it, olive oil, soya sauce and salt. 2. Assorted Obanzai - A trio of appetisers that comprised of a Hijiki Seaweed, Beans and Tuna Salad, an Octopus with Okra in Plum Sauce, and a Truffle Potato Salad. All were lovely but the octopus stood out for its extraordinarily tender and juicy bite. 3. Oden of Boiled Shogoin Turnip & Chicken Dumpling - Not surprisingly, one of my favourite items as I am partial to Oden (or what I call Japanese #yongtaufoo). The chicken dumpling had a great texture as bits of cartilage were mixed in, just like a #Tsukune. A special lemon oil drizzled on as a final touch. 4. Seasonal Sashimi - Fresh Blue Fin Tuna, Kuromutsu (Japanese Blue Fish) and Aori Ika (Big Fin Squid) were presented. 5. Charcoal-grilled Spanish Mackerel - Another of my favourites, this was a beautiful and tasty piece of fish. 6. Deepfried Crab Dumpling - Made up of crab meat, fish paste, onions and mayo, the piping hot large cubes were crunchy on the outside but soft and creamy inside. 7. Gout-o ICU (Ikura-Caviar-Uni) - Instead of the default Tamago Kake Gohan (rice with torched soufflated egg white and yolk), Chef Sekiya served us this decadent supplement first. Each of the three mini Dons (rice bowls) had uni, ikura and caviar crowning them. 8. Rock On! Tokyo Treasure Box - If you are after something dramatic, this supplement would be the one. While the Caviar, Ikura, Sea Urchin and Crab Meat arrived in a flat wooden box, the Seasonal White Truffle was presented in a Louis Vuitton trunk. ⬇️Continued in Comments⬇️
