•A Traditional Japanese Meal is always served with green tea.

•Japanese people love their noodles. Soba noodles are made of buckwheat. Ramen are thin noodles prepared in a soup. Somen are thin noodles eaten cold and considered a summer specialty.


•Shabu-Shabu is a delicious Japanese style meat fondue. Thinly sliced quality meat is dipped into boiling water along with vegetables, mushrooms and tofu. Ponzu vinegar or a sesame sauce goes with the meat.



•Yakitori are grilled chicken pieces on skewers.



•Onigiri are rice balls wrapped in nori seaweed. They contain umeboshi (pickled Japanese plum), katsuobushi (dried bonito shavings), tuna or salmon. Rice balls are a healthy and low-cost snack available at every convenience store.



•Japanese Curry Rice (Kare Raisu) is a very simple dish, tasty and inexpensive. It is so popular that many fast-food restaurants serve it, especially in Tokyo subway stations.



•Kobe beef is a delicacy from cattle raised in Kobe district. There is a long tradition of raising cattle in that area of Japan. The cattle drinks beer(!!!) and receives a daily massage(!!!. The price accordingly is expensive.

•The local people in Japan don't like sugary desserts. The Japanese desserts are made from pounded rice, sweet red bean apanese dessertspaste, sweet white bean paste, mashed sweet potatoes and chestnuts.
Try Mochi Japanese cake or Wagashi . Stores change the colors and shapes of Wagashi to reflect the changes of season. Also very recommended are Green tea ice cream and Green tea Japanese cake.

  1. Hi, I was wondering if you would allow me to use your Osaka photo (with the huge blowfish sign) in my blog at www.nonstophonolulu.com? I'm visiting Osaka and need a great pic for that blog. We would credit you by your real name or your blog name or both, if you wish. Please let me know, and thank you!
