A bright green night on Jan 13^th, we had over 108 people gathering in Katsu New York office to be given our appreciation.  It was a very warm event.  

One of our entertainments was real Mochi Pounding which got everyone excited in the event. Some guests also participated to pound the mochi. Later on, everyone got to taste the fresh mochi. What a memorable activity!
