Foods of Japan

Now the foods we ate in Japan were interesting to say the least.  The things that I found the greatest differences in were breakfast and the size of a cup of coffee.  For breakfast each morning we were offered a ever changing menu that always included mini hot dogs, macaroni salad, potato salad, spaghetti and a green salad.  It was much more like lunch cuisine than breakfast.  Also the coffee.  While it was always a wonderful tasting cup of coffee, it was the smallest of cups.  I think I needed three cups to equal one of my normal morning cups. 

One constant was that every single thing we ate was presented beautifully and had a very delicate taste.



Here are a few photos of some of the things we ate.

More wedding fare.  Note the pink stick thing is ginger and it was outstanding.


Point at the menu and hope you like it lunch.  Mine was curry and it was good.
