This private establishment
invited me in on a Saturday night and gave me a great home-cooked meal,
terrific after a long day. Thank you!

We loved the Pororoca
supermarket right next to the hotel. I actually enjoyed shopping
there. Everything was fresh, made that day, prices were fair and
checkout was easy. But you did actually have to bag your own food.

We loved Mos Burger and ate here
quite a few times. They put a sauce on the burgers that looked
kind of like thick salsa, but was spicy more like a good chili, but we
don't think there was any meat in it. According to Wikipedia,
it's the 2nd largest fast food franchise in Japan.

We had "Beef Bowls" here.
There are more Yoshinoya in the US than in Asia, and the company was
founded in 1899.

This is kind of like Japan's
Denny's. Everything from Pork cutlet, spaghetti, pancakes and
regular asian food. Open 24 hours a day for that omelette craving.

This restaurant was very near
the office and had food like fondue and veal gruyere. Not bad,
but they didn't know what Riesling was and the portions were small for
the price

This pub is near the office and
does a fine bangers
and mash at the end of the week.

An interesting upscale dining
experience. The 900¥ Asahi Super Drys kept you from getting
plastered.

The guys wanted to get Soba and
we found this restaurant in Roppongi Hills. Good food, good
price. Even a cool logo.

Good coffee in Seattle, happily
just as good over here. |

Yep, you can get your standard
skinny mocha latte frappuccino over here as well. They're
generally large to huge but fast and efficient.

I wouldn't say "I'm Lovin' It"
but it did the job one night after working late.

This
student's report gives an interesting analysis of the "McDonald's
of the Japan Coffee Market". Thought the iced mocha at Excelsior
was actually really good.
