Kakigori Flag - This is one of the very common commercial flags in Japan; even some foreigners can understand the meaning without reading Japanese Kanji characters on it. kakigori (shaved ice with sweet syrup toppings) is a popular desert in summer months. Virtually in all busy junctions of Japan, this symbolic flag can see, where sells kakigori. This particular flag in the photo also says by small two letters in upper area, this shop sells kakigori made of naturally frozen ice, in winter. Different types of kakigori are popular in many Asian countries, but Japan may have the widest range of flavors, like Strawberry, Green Tea, and plum-alcohol taste (more information will post with the next photo). date050814
