Street Menu, Shinsekai 2

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 16 February 2009 in Food & Cuisine.

This place just about has it all; sushi, kushi katsu, grilled fish, you name it...

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

Oh also, I want to know the sushi choice way up about themiddle the 6th, the one with green tinge, what in the world is that? never seen it

@Lorraine: That's ika (squid), but it's on top of a green shiso (perilla) leaf. Quite a common one over here Lorraine.

It is these picture menus that greatly assisted my culinary appetitie whilst in Japan.

@David: They're very effective eh?

akarui from Kagoshima, Japan

Did you get good in reading restaurant menus? I am usually with my wife and I don't make much effort for reading the menu, just look at the pictures...

@akarui: Depends on the restaurant Olivier! This kind of place I'm OK...

David from Melbourne, Australia

yes..they are very effective for someone like me who can't read, write nor speak Japanese...hahaha

@David: Yes indeed!

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

Is it as good as it looks?

@Twelvebit: No! Definitely not. It's pretty standard fare, kind of like Japanese fast food. Not a lot of healthy stuff.
