As promised, here are some eats from my trip to Japan. I must say the food in Japan is fantastic, incredibly fresh, healthy, and I never felt full, it was just the right amount. My favorites were always at the Izakayas which are basically Japanese pubs. Very chill and casual, just a fun environment.

| Sushi Dawai, Tokyo - Omakase Breakfast at 6 am - Grilled shrimp head in the middle |

| Aburasoba Noodles (ramen-esque) - specialty of Tokyo |

| Our friend Junko cooked breakfast, awesome - Salmon, rice, miso soup, pickled vegetables - simple, healthy, and delicious |
 |
| Junko's dinner - a spread of rice, ahi tuna salad, beef and potatoes, chicken salad, karaage chicken - all delicious! |
