Trivia
[Difference] Unlike Japan's prep-knife culture, this is a highly rational tool used to 'cut food to the perfect size right in front of the diner'.
Eating tips & etiquette
[Unique Eating] Biting directly into 'long noodles' or 'huge meat blocks' is unrefined. They are always snipped beautifully just before eating.
