History Kusaya originated in the Izu Islands, probably on Niijima, where, during the Edo period people used to earn a living through salt making. Villagers paid taxes to the government with the salt they made, and as taxes were high, salt for fish-curing was used frugally. The same salt was used many times for this purpose, resulting in a pungent dried fish, which was later called kusaya. The resulting tea-co ...

Nomikai
A is a type of drinking party popular in Japanese culture. ''Nomikai'' are a part of the culture of most places of employment, from schools to nightclubs. They are most often held in restaurants or ''izakaya'', usually with everyone seated at one large table or occupying a separated section of the venue. Employees are usually expected to participate to some extent in various ''nomikai'', as it is considered a social aspect of work, although it is not expressly required. Such parties focus on the bond between coworkers as a group, and are not considered private or somehow non-work related (see Japanese values). Attendance does not necessarily imply that a person will drink any alcohol, however, and attendees generally pay a set amount for the food, drink, and venue regardless of consumption. Any leftover money may be put toward organizing the next ''nomikai''. The student version of the ''nomikai'' is called a ''konpa'' and contains some distinguishing characteristics. Procedure ...
