The perfect holiday gift:  Yama Sushi Marketplace is hosting a completely free mochitsuki demonstration (mochi pounding) at all three of their Los Angeles locations. A long-honored Japanese New Year tradition, this event involves pounding rice into mochi, symbolizing good fortune, long life, and good health for the New Year. With taiko drummers building on the festivities, Yama is also partnering with renowned confectionery store Fugetsu-Do, owned and operated in Little Tokyo since 1903, to provide mochi to guests following the demonstration.
