Kamakiri Udon HIP UDON IZAKAYA

T

he recently Kamakiri Udon is the sister shop of Niwakaya Chosuke, an izakaya in Yakuin whose handmade udon were so popular as a meal finisher that it decided to open a dedicated udon and donburi (“rice bowl”) shop. The noodles, which

fukuoka-now.com

are made in-house from Itoshima flour, are soft yet resilient and retain a slightly wheaty flavor. You can enjoy them in warm bowl of flavorful broth or cold with the dipping sauce on the side. Kamakiri Udon offers the best of both the Sanuki and Hakata styles of udon.

The donburi include the perennial favorites—katsudon, oyakodon and tendon—and you can also order a mini size (¥300~) to go with your udon.

Last but not least, don’t miss the eyecatching “free small glass of beer anytime”.

As the name suggests, you can order one glass of beer at no charge, day or night. If you’d like to continue beyond your complimentary beer, you can choose from a wide range of shochu and sake. Stop by for a late lunch or enjoy a bowl of noodles after a few drinks on the way home from work. At Kamakiri Udon, any time is udon time!

A zest of zeal

Remi Charpentier, France, Freelance Teacher

I

am lucky enough to have experienced life in several different countries, yet after having lived in Japan for many years, I must say that the Japanese attitude towards work is, on the whole, the most loyal and self-dedicated that I have ever witnessed.

It is no surprise that the Japanese work ethic is world famous, having seen their sense of civic order and respect for each other.

Japan recovered after the horrendous Second World War in record time.and by the late sixties the country had become a world leader - this rapid transformation has everything to do with Japan’s work ethic, with everyone working in unison for the same goal.

In my own household, my wife is not taking any vacation this year, as she is too busy in her company (which always comes first), even though she is contributing financially to my trip with our two children to France (nearing

sainthood...). Most jobs, especially ones dealing with the public, are performed with what I would dare to call zeal.

Zeal, a powerful four letter word that the English language took from the Greek “zelos” in the fourteenth century, is often referred to when talking about work: “working with zeal”, for example. I don’t imagine that zeal, nor words; like enthusiasm, fervor, and eagerness, would be used alongside the word work when translated into Japanese, as their association goes without saying in the Japanese mind. ‘Work

with all your might’ seems to be the basic definition of ‘work’ in Japan.

This starts very early in life. A young kid introducing himself or herself in a kindergarten, or simply saying good morning at the top of his or her lungs, will do it with something approaching zeal.

Even the most menial of jobs are performed with zeal, including some of those involving interaction with the public that make you wonder - and this is what I really want to talk about - if the job actually serves a purpose at all.

We’ve all seen those worksites on the side of the road: a great big hole, and half a dozen workers, using heavy duty machinery, with one guy in uniform and a helmet in front , gesturing frantically, indicating which way to go to avoid the obstruction. As though if it weren’t for him, kindly telling me where to go, I would have undoubtedly rammed into the workers, hit the heavy machinery and plunged to my death down the seemingly unfathomable hole… why thank you, Sir! Not to mention the battalion of parking

attendants placed in strategic spots at the mall, sporting equally great uniforms. They strut around with the same seriousness and zeal, as if to say, “Boy, aren’t you glad I’m here!” Well, I would be, if you could only tell me where to find a parking space... In all fairness, I have to admit that some of them do try and help, but most just gesture in one direction, which just so happens to be towards the entrance to the car park.

Another of my personal favorites is the girl who shows you which ticket counter has just opened at the train station. Now, after having followed the intricate waiting line, you find yourself facing the thirteen counters, which remarkably enough are, most of the time, all open, or at least ten of them. In France you’d be lucky if four or five were open (if there’s not yet another strike on, that is). When one does become available, it is made pretty obvious: a green light flashes, a small screen displays the window number and the worker behind the counter says, “next please”. But on top of all that, a young woman (and I hope this is not her

These are not criticisms - the sheer number of sales staff in department stores used to make me dizzy, but at least they all have a job. Thanks to the zealous Japanese way of working together, the trains run on time. A couple of decades ago in Mexico I would wait for a train and hope it would come on time - the Spanish word for wait and hope is the same“esperar”. It might sometimes make things a little slower, but I think that on the whole this zeal helps Japanese society to work as well as it does - dodesho?

he Nishinippon Businesswomen Association (NBWA) is a Fukuoka-based discussion and networking platform, run in Japanese and English, for women working in the male-dominated world of business. The organisation’s co-president, Joëlle Sambuc-Bloise, is also at the helm of a successful company that offers consulting and investment opportunities, including in sectors such as renewable energy as well as medical and biological technology. She spoke to us about her experiences of working in Japan, the issues that face women pursuing a career on a local or international scale, and her opinion on Prime Minister Abe’s recent claim that powerful women are key to Japan’s future economic success. She believes that women should not always “settle for the second best choice”, and that the association’s events can help working women to break down cultural barriers, exchange ideas and make inspiring connections. For more information about upcoming NBWA events and how to join, see their website at nbwa.jp.
