Japanese BBQ - similar to Korean BBQ. Lots of options for meat and veggies. 
Sushi Go-Round - we have these in the US, but in Japan, it's a guess at what you order..
We thought this would be Tonkatsu - fried pork - served with miso soup, rice, and cabbage salad. Instead, fried oysters - yum!
A thousand and one variations of rice...this was rice with a creamy sauce, calamari and veggies, served bubbling in an iron skillet over fire.
Black Sesame Latte - seasonal special at a small coffeeshop in Yokohama...Heidi will grab coffee here on her way to the airport.
Ok, so this isn't a meal out...but so much great fish!
Remember that we didn't manage to try horse-meat sushi in Matsumoto? We tried it in Tokyo. 
Fresh-toasted rice cake in Kanagawa
The Japanese have an obsession with French and fusion-french pastry. This is from Vie de la France - Alex's favorite. Heidi prefers "Bun-Bun", so we trade off.... 
This one turned out to be pork! 
Yakitori adventures with Mike from work and his Japanese mother. Heart, liver, kidneys...it was a good education in organ meat. Some were great - but Heidi had a tough time with the cartilage. The cabbage with spicy miso dip, asparagus wrapped in bacon, veggies, soup, chicken were all great too.
