Food in Japan

This morning as I finish packing for my flight home I will quickly post pictures of some of the food that I have eaten on the trip.

CoCo Ichibanya, curry house, ton katsu, breaded food, curry

I will start with a meal a couple nights ago at The Curry House. I did not realize that I had ordered as much as I had. It was a good thing that I was hungry.

Bento box, Korean, Bulgogi, Japan, lunch

Here is a bento box that I had for lunch at a Korean restaurant. It is still a bit Japanese in the presentation and was quite good.

Spiny Lobster, lobster sushi, Japanese Cuisine, Food

Here is some nice Spiny Lobster sashimi. This was quite an interesting dish, and I may write more about it sometime.

okonomiyaki, savory pancake, osaka, japanese food

Yesterday here in Osaka I had okonomiyaki which are savory pancakes. These were really good. They are sprinkled with bonito flakes which are moved around by the steam coming off the pancakes. It was quite interesting.

udon noodles, tempura, Japanese Food, Cuisine

Last night it was really late when I got back from the customer so we went out for a quick meal of udon noodles and tempura.

My flight lands in San Francisco in a little more than an hour from now, so I better get finished packing and leave for the airport.
