WHAT IS THE MEANING BEHIND FUREBA?

The name “fureba” simply means flavour in Japanese. Although there are many ways of how you can express the meaning of flavour and taste. It connects better with those who do not speak Japanese as it is the Romaji form of the pronunciation. Romaji is the pronunciation of Japanese characters by using western alphabets.

THE WATANABE

Hi! We co-owners of Fureba. We are Japanese-Indonesian Canadian sisters who started this business because of our curiosity to know more about our Japanese culture. We realized, like many other travelers miss out on different type of foods Japan has to offer and only experiencing the basic "western known" cuisines. During our multiple trips to Japan, we always found ourselves missing out on popular local cuisines and kept saying "I will try that next time" and just end up forgetting.

Fureba has became a community where foodies help foodies to get the most out of their trip. Fureba helps you plan your future meals and lets you easily find information on city specific cuisines as well as a community to help guide and recommend!
