Shakeys Pizza where you can have a lunch viking (all you can eat in Japanese) for a set price, for example, as an adult for 710 yen. I remember hearing or reading that the creator of Pac Man got the idea for the character and game while dining at a Shakeys Pizza in Omotesando in Tokyo?

Italian food as a segment is growing as more types of pasta is being seen on the shelves and the market for pizza is also expanding with more types of pizza, more natural cheese types and a wider variety of ingredients.

Japanese chocolate maker Royce now popular in USA
"Japanese
(Chocolate maker) rival, Royce’, with a very different approach to
chocolate-making. …the Nama, vaguely truffle-like and alluringly creamy. Green
tea, bitter dark, mild milk and white are some of the options, all made with
fresh cream from farms near the factory in Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost
region. ..Royce’ makes…novelties like potato chips covered with fromage blanc,
cocoa-dipped marshmallows and flat chocolate squares called Prafeuille with
gooey fillings of honey, berries and caramel"

Japan Travel: Must try food in Japan #1 Yakisoba instant noodles
 | ||
| Picture: Yakisoba instant noodles |
Visiting Japan and want to try some unique foods? Instant yakisoba noodles should definitely be on your list of food items to try. This is one food you can easily afford, find and enjoy, just about anywhere in Japan. As Japan has so many conveniences, when ever you feel like a bite to eat, all you have to do is to find the nearest convenience store, brands like Family Mart, Sunkus, Daily Yamazaki, Lawson, many are open twenty four hours a day.
Yakisoba is a well loved food in Japan, and can be eaten fresh as a food stall item at many festivals, station kiosks and food stores such as supermarkets.
What makes instant yakisoba noodles such a treat is that you can find it yourself at a convenience store with no language skills by just looking for the pack in the noodle section. They are a large Styrofoam bowl with a colourful lid showing a picture of the product, thin noodles in a dark brown sauce with nori seaweed sprinkled on them. At convenience stores in Japan you get to experience real Japanese convenience. In Japan, convenience store has microwaves, a constant supply of hot water in kettles, chopticks, serviettes, toilets,etc.
What I mean is that you buy the noodles and pay at the cash register and then you make the noodles in the store. Yes, you make the noodles yourself! If you have trouble locating them in store, just ask the staff (yakisoba arimasuka?)
So what is so great about Yakisoba instant noodles? For me, its the taste, which is a mixture of a thick rich sauce, tangy ginger, the tenderness of the noodles and the overall smell, that is very unique.
Step 1. You peel back the foil lid and also peel back the drainage vent , a small panel on the lid.
Step 2. Take out the sachets enclosed and then pour in hot water from the kettle in-store and fill the Styrofoam bowl up to the line indented on the inside which is generally about halfway.
Step 3. Re-peal the folded lid back over the bowl and re-seal by tucking the lid under the bowls edge and wait for three minutes to pass (a great time to check out some Manga magazines for the latest news).
Step 4. When the time has elapsed, you drain the hot water from the bowl by the small vent, being careful to hold the bowl tight and avoid any hot steam.
Step 5. Then you start opening the variety of sachets and adding them individually into the bowl. The store assistant will give you a set of disposable chopsticks (waribashi) when you pay and it is now time to open these, split them apart and use them to stir the noodles and contents of the sachets.
Step 6. Re-seal the lid, tidy up the bench by disposing of all rubbish in the bin and then take the bowl outside with your chopsticks and find a nice seat outside to enjoy your meal.
Yakisoba instant noodles are a cheap snack or meal that take about 5 minutes to prepare and are very affordable at about 150 yen (AUD $1.62). Plus you get to experience the fantastic convenience of making the noodles yourself in-store. Just like the locals do it.

Organic Foods Japan: "duck rice"...sells at 20 to..30 percent premium over conventionally grown rice"
"Takao Furuno...decided to turn his farm organic..he stumbled across the traditional practice of using Aigamo ducks to protect rice. The ducks eat insects, pests and snails.
