Kome – the title of rice in Japanese. The KOME Festival is a unique event that allows you to fully immerse yourself in the world of Japanese cooking and enjoy a variety of dishes where rice is the main ingredient.

At this festival, you can try various types of sushi, such as nigiri (rice ball with a piece of fish or seafood), maki (rice wrapped in nori with various fillings), as well as gunkans (rice board framed with a strip of nori, stuffed on top). Each of these dishes represents a real art in styling and decorating.
In addition to sushi, the festival offers other amazing rice dishes. The classic is onigiri – a rice ball, usually stuffed with fish, seafood or vegetables, and wrapped in a nori leaf. Onigiri is a popular dish that is often consumed in Japan as a lunch or snack.

You can also taste rice wine – sake at the festival. Sake is made from a special kind of rice that undergoes a fermentation process similar to the production of beer or wine. Each glass of sake offers a unique taste and aroma, and trying different varieties of sake will be a real discovery for connoisseurs of this drink.
One of the most interesting events at the festival is the rice cooking contests. Culinary masters from all over Russia and even from Japan compete in the art of cooking the most delicious, original and beautifully served dishes using rice. The jury carefully evaluates each dish, taking into account its appearance, texture, taste and harmony of ingredients.
The KOME Festival is a great opportunity to get acquainted with Japanese food culture and enjoy great Japanese delicacies. This event attracts people from all over the world with its unique tastes and traditions, and is also a platform for the exchange of experience and knowledge about the gastronomic art of Japan. Come to our festival with the whole family or individually and enjoy the gastronomic holiday!
