Hitsumabushi sounds delicious. I've never had eel before, but this dish makes me hungry.

I'm surprised Japan doesn't have this custom.

Most places in China have something similar, after either the baby is one month or two months old, there's either a gathering or party where the baby gets introduced to family and friends.

There are two phrases for this practice that I don't know how to translate the phrases into English, but the words basically mean "wait a month for the child" and "a full month", with the baby kept indoors for that month and the celebration, party, or "pilgrimage" happens after.

Did it for all three of mine.

I don't know about mainland China, but in Hong Kong, it's 滿月酒, literally translates to "full moon wine" (so, a feast upon reaching a full month).

Korea's baby custom is called, "The 100 day Celebration." or "Baek-il."

I feel like they must've mentioned that Helmina had twins in an earlier chapter but for the life of me I can't remember. It's been ages since she's shown up.

....this probably isn't that kind of manga, but. Why do I feel like those twins are reincarnated? It seemed like they exchanged looks when Shinobu mentioned they are well-behaved. And they seemed too entranced by Japanese cuisine for a newborn......
Ah well, I'm probably just seeing things..

Same here in VN, we call it "đầy tháng". Depends on the family's financial situation it will be big or small, but generally will be held between family members of both sides.

I'm pretty sure Japan does, though it may be regional? The 100 Day Celebration—I remember it being brought up in Ore Monogatari!

Ahhh!! The Twins are so cute and the way how they look just like each parent. I hope we get a chapter when they do try Nobu for the first time.

(Many thanks for the translation.)

awww such a lovely custom. where i'm from, the new parents would hold a feast where the women gather and sing together to welcome the baby and relatives take turns giving the baby their first haircut.

I wonder if the kids when they're grown will take after their parents or develop their own favourite dishes.
