Ximena Del Campo López RTGAmbassador Another instance where food was the medium to connect with others was when Anna (fellow ambassador) and I were determined to get the famous Riko?s cheesecake in Kyoto, which is a fluffy, and wiggly famous dessert in Japan. We were lucky to have found a Riko?s cheesecake store, even though it had a very long line. While we waited in line, Anna and I really got to know each other and have since developed a meaningful friendship. My culinary journey in Japan was more than a quest to taste new flavors; it was an adventure that enriched my understanding of culture and human connection. From the spicy, flavorful bites to the delightfully unexpected conversations, each meal became a memorable experience. The Harajuku corn dogs and Riko?s cheesecake in Kyoto were delicious treats and gateways to new friendships and shared moments of joy. This trip taught me that food transcends boundaries, offering a universal language that connects us all, no matter where we come from. My adventure in Japan reminded me of the power of food to bring people together and create lasting memories.
