Lunch ON! S2019E20 - Rice Ball Lunch for the Bonsai Tree Grower

Mr. Shiozu of Nara Prefecture, western Japan, runs a nursery where he grows trees for bonsai use. Although he was himself an acclaimed bonsai artist, he opened the business as he began wanting to grow plants from the seed. For lunch, his wife makes the simple salt rice ball, but to it she adds on a special paste that lets the family enjoy the taste of spring all year round.

In another segment, we visit a company president in Kyoto Prefecture who cooks lunch for his employees every Monday. Tune in to find out why.
