OK, I guess this is a weird question, but Im always wondering about it.


My fave sushi is called Inari . But I find that its really hard to find. Most sushi
places I go to dont have it. Is it not very popular?

Also I wanted to know if there are any places in the US that serve ramen like they do in Japan? And if so is there any in FL?

It is just that most "sushi places" in the US are managed by non-Japanese who do not know what inarizushi is.

As a matter of fact I do feel like eating Japanese food tonight, I will make Gyu Don, and Japanese salad. :gohan: It is not up there so I can't vote!:p
 
マヨラー

I could never understand why the Japanese love Mayo so much. :confused:
Can't Live without Mayonnaise

The mayo fad over there is/was rather a recent thing, for only a few years among people just clueless on fine dining. No different from ones who pour a whole bottle of Tabasco sauce on every dish in front of them.
 
My most favourite thing initially about the mayonnaise was the bottle. So soft and squidgy. I also love the ages recommendation 0-99years. Terrible if you're 100 isnt it?

Im thinking I would like to eat Kakuni again soon... its been a while. Need to find the perfect mustard to eat it with.
Kakuni isnt on the list either.....
 
他人丼/開化丼

Beef and egg is "Tanin" domburi = (strangers)
One of Kansai-local wordings, it is called "kaika-don" (civilization&enlightenment bowl) in Tokyo where tanin-don is pork&egg.
The very first beef bowl in Japan was served in kaikadon form at Gyugin in Matsuzaka.

Gyugin (est. 1902)
1-1618 Uomachi, Matsusaka-shi, Mie 515-0082 Japan
phone: +81(598)21-0404
[Their beef bowls served at the annexe +81(598)26-7023 place now.]
 
I'd really love seafood ramen for dinner. Yum!
:-)

Other than that, sukiyaki would do nicely. Hmmm, shrimp tempura with miso soup and sashimi sounds good too.
 
Isn't oi both a Japanese interjection for hey along with being a british/uk interjection?* Not Oi vey!

*I know it is, this is a rhetorical question.
 
タコライス

A favorite of alot of us was: Taco Rice and Cheese (TRC). An excellent take-out meal consisting of ground beef seasoned with Taco Seasoning, on a bed of rice, and topped off with shredded cheese. Excellent with Ketchup and Mayonnaise, or not.
Taco rice was born in Kin township during 1960s, quite popular throughout Okinawa by now.
Some people prefer shredded cheese melting a little between rice bed and ground meat, some people like cilantro garnish. Salsa sauce seems the most popular, while sour cream and/or chili sauce goes very fine too.

I regular this one local S Korean-owned Japanese restaurant at least once a week lately,they have the best authentic-taste of food for all non-Japanese operated ones.

My one-time favorite sushi,topped with whole cooked scallop.
 
My fave sushi is called Inari.

Actually I don't even have inarizushi often in Japan either. At least not in sushi stores.

The reason is that, inarizushi is one of cheapest sushi to make. And you can make it at home. So sushi shops usually don't bother having it around.

However, you can buy it at the super market in Japan, and at places that sell bento boxes. It's more of a snack, rather than a dinner type of, go out with your friends and have a good time sushi.

my 2 cents.

What would you rather have?
If you don't see what you like, tell us. 👍
I don't really consider Takoyaki or Okonomiyaki dinner food so I didn't include them in the poll.

i could go for some oyakodon...
 
I just want some shrimp/chicken tempura....

last time I had any was in florida on my last birthday =(

Hopefully I can get my dad to take me to a Japanese stake house for my 16th birthday....

mmm Shrimp Tempura, or chicken tempura for that matter..it's just so good.
 
Sushi and beer sounds pretty good right now, but then again so does a burger and a beer. Hell, anything and beer sounds great right now.
 
It is just that most "sushi places" in the US are managed by non-Japanese who do not know what inarizushi is.

Strangely, my local Ralphs Market has sushi with an on-site preparer and he has inari. I have it on occasion, it is good.
 
I only checked one.
But I'd mix two and order Tempura Udon.
Udon soup with some Tempura shrimp floating in there. 窶堋ィ窶堋「窶堋オ窶堋「窶堙ヲツ。

Veggie Yakisoba is also good but not up there.

I just ate though, so i'm not really in a food choosing mood. Those
are just two I might choose as a default.
