holds a special place in my heart. Everything that comes out of

generations can get a taste of this Japanese food art that’s happening
in One Arts Plaza. Kabocha pumpkins, which I spotted at Tian
Tian Supermarket in Richardson this weekend, are Japanese pumpkins that

very strong arm. But once you figure out a way to open this ugly,
green, squat-looking pumpkin, the juicy insides are worth all that work.But once you figure out a way to open this ugly, green, squat-looking

slice of seaweed over his braised kakobcha pumpkin slices ($4.00), which sit in a bed of savory soy broth."
