I could eat it all the time. In fact, I would like to eat it all the time. Ever notice how after eating Japenese food, even if you are FULL and ate A LOT you still feel LIGHT instead of all weighed down and heavy.....? Today I ate at the habachi grill.... had miso soup, ginger salad, sauteed mushrooms, veggies, fried rice, scallops and steak, and then four pieces of avocado and cucumber sushi and never got over stuffed. Such a wonderful meal. Oh and I would really like to buy and have a habachi grill.... the grill itself wouldnt be too difficult to manage acquiring but the exhaust system? Yeah, that would make it hard.
There is a place not far from where I work called "Miyako" that makes Chicken Katsu Don which is my guilty pleasure. And THAT will make you feel like you just ate a Buick.
Nummy...... One of my favorite Japanese dishes is sukiyaki and eel sushi, I just can't get enough of that stuff! Oh god all this talk of food. *drool* And I can't eat or drink anything for several hours.... Ahhhh!!!!
I've never tasted it though lots of my friends have tried to convince me into doing so. Maybe the time has come... probably during my next visit to the capital. No Japanese restaurants in my town.
i love most kinds of food. japanese included. i also love japanese trains (OTHER then the damd shinkansen. the're ok too. just that the're a different gauge then what is otherwise standard there, and the ones that run on their older tracks are a lot prittier. some of the newest generation of the shinkansen look pretty damd ugly to me. otherwise japanese trains make european trains look ugly and european trains make american trains look ugly, or did before they were privatized and too damd many of them got painted red). japanese parks. those trippy little road and street side shrines. and a lot of other things. not everything. but a lot of things. there's a website, called web and log, or something like that, that has lots of pictures of japanese trains, as well as ever railway station bathroom and everything the guy who takes them, or links to them, has for breakfast and lunch, (from the looks of it, i don't actualy read kanji so i don't really KNOW all the details) here's a link to it: http://blog.livedoor.jp/nekosuki600/ as for habachi's, don't they still have them at home depot? or some other hardware store? the little ones like the chinese used to have on their boats. the're just a little square cast iron bar-b-q that all you need is to set it on something nonflamable. you only need the kind of ventilation system health departments require of resaraunts if you're going to use it inside. maybe not even then. just someplace nonflamable to set it down on so you don't burn the house down. generaly people (who i've known in the u.s. who have/had them) use them outside on the patio or deck, even the little patio's of their appartment buildings (which is what i immagine most people do in japan, though again, having never been there i wouldn't know for sure). another thing over there, they have bento, a prepackaged box lunch, once commonly, sold mostly on railway station platforms, well i see now, where you can get them in some of the super markets over there appearently. there's a chain in the u.s., called trader joe's, that carries a lot of japanese food items. i've also lived where there was a little mom and pop grocery run by a japanese guy that had all kinds of them right accross the street in old town/lower auburn (california). hawaii, from what i've heard, has a lot of everything japanese (except the trains). =^^= .../\...
If I had some extra money, And a bigger tummy... I would eat all the sushi, All the sushi in the world.
I love sushi. I am going for sushi on Thursday for my birthday. I would eat sushi for every meal if I could and would never be tired of it
Yeah I just wish I could get more variety from the grocery store. Sometimes it only seems that you can buy the California roll...<_<;;
With the Red Sox addition of pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka, I suspect a lot of people here in New England will suddenly develop a new found interest in all thing Japanese - including Blow Fish & Sushi Even the local Arab Terrorists (who are also Red Sox Fans) have developed an interest in Aum Shinrikyo, the group which staged the Sarin Gas attack on the Tokyo subway system :troll: Hotwater
