A Zambian Food Fair is currently underway at the Filly restaurant at the Hotel Continental, in Fuchu, Tokyo, until Sept. 15.

Filly, a Western restaurant, organized the fair with support from Chipa Mwenya, 25, who has a Japanese mother and a Zambian father and has lived in Japan since he was 18.

"Not many Japanese know about Zambia and I thought food was the best way to introduce Zambia to Japanese," Mwenya, who worked with Filly's chef Kazuki Niida to prepare Zambian food, said.
