I love Sushi! I love Oriental food! So what if people laugh at me while I pretend to know how to use my chopsticks while my food falls back onto my plate. Bottom-line, I am not coordinated enough to use them. Lincoln Kayiwa had to have been sitting in a sushi bar watching me at a distance while I made a total fool of myself, inspiring his creation of the TUKAANI. In actuality, Kayiwa developed this design based on the bill of a Toucan bird. The sterling silver utensil allows for the user to steadily grip their food and place in their mouth without the fear of looking like a fool (such as myself). The loop at the end of the design allows for easy storage and display. Thanks Kayiwa for allowing me an added bit of confidence next time I walk into a Sushi bar.

好用又时髦的“鸟嘴”筷子【奇客】
我爱寿司!我爱东方美食!如果我假装会使用筷子却让我的食物掉到碟子上的时候人们取笑我该怎么办。关键问题是,我的筷子用的确实不怎么灵活。我在寿司吧里出丑的时候,林肯·卡伊娃(Lincoln Kayiwa)肯定坐在远处看着我,所以他受到启发,发明了TUKAANI筷子. 实际上,卡伊娃是根据巨嘴鸟的嘴发明的这个设计。这副纯银的筷子可以让使用者稳稳地夹住食物,吃进嘴里,而不用担心像个傻瓜一样出丑(像我自己这样)。筷子末端有一个环圈方便筷子存放和陈列。感谢卡伊娃让我在下次走进寿司吧的时候多了一点信心。
