MOS Burger must not be forgotten when talking about teriyaki burger, since it was introudced by them first back in 1973.
Their rice burger kimpira with burdock and carrot is my favorite.

When I was in Japan I asked if my girlfriend at the time wanted to go out to eat? When she asked what I wanted I said, "A Grilled Cheese Sandwhich" , she had no clue of what i was talking about.

Grilled cheese sandwich is not very popular there, but grilled ham&cheese is. They seem to call it croque-monsieur though.

They say that a soba noodle restaurant Sanchoan near Waseda Univ. served katsudon first in 1922, unfortunately the restaurant does not seem to care about that, they don't even fry tonkatsu themselves.

Sanchoan
62 Babashitacho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 162-0045
phone: +81(3)3203-6218

Of those listed, I like Udon the best!

Concerning the guy who mentioned McDonalds: why the hell would you want to eat that McD factory waste $hit in Japan?

Familiarity.

When I first got too Japan I had HUGE home-sickness that went through many different negative emotional phases. Anger, depression, hatred, sullen-ness, boredom etc.

Some days I was desperate for something familiar, something 'safe'. McDonalds filled that whole right up.

Even after I settled some days I was just too tired/stressed from work or whatever to bother with wondering what i'm eating. Again McD's filled the hole.

Hmm I'm going with the majority here heheh.

I like - tadaaaa! - sushi! Yummie, one of the best days I had - in terms of food hahah - was when the first dedicated sushi-bar opened its doors in Rotterdam. Yay! About 3 years ago, can you believe it? You could get sushi in japanese restaurants in the area, but for some reason these restaurants are a bit snobby (must be the clientele), and I like my restaurants less stuck-up

And udon! Yummie

The poll options are:


Sushi/sashimi: obvious
Sukiyaki: vegetables, tofu and beef cooked ina pot, dipped in a raw egg
Okonomiyaki: pancake with a variety of ingredients and toppings
Udon/zoba: Japanese noodles, endless local varieties
Tempura (tendon): seafood, vegetables and other things deep fried in Tempura batter
Ramen/somen: another variety of Japanese noodles (somen are usually eaten cold in summer)
Donburi: bowl of rice with different toppings
Gyoza: dumplings of Chinese origin
Shabu shabu: Japanese meat fondue
Yakitori: grilled chicken skewers

Click to expand...

Prety much lists everything I've tried and loved, with the execeptioin of Udon, they tend to offer the same variety n the Japanese restaurants in my neck of the woods. To get more variety, I have to make the 90 minute trek to San Francisco. *sigh* I'm hungry now and I don't want to deal with the traffic going to S.F.
