deacon, a very plausible theory! in fact, one of the friends we were traveling who is from japan said nearly the same thing: the food we’re thinking of is the “everyday” japanese food. this cuisine is the higher-end, luxe stuff. i was surprised that there was such a disparity! but i guess you can’t really fancy-up ramen too much

Wow…
I have been doing research all about places to go and things to eat and do, but never thought of the time difference. 14 hours, I will be out for a day when I get back to catch up im sure. I have always heard that most food from other cultures that gets exported out is the food of peasants and the common folk. Its the food that they get to share with the world and we fall in love with it. All except Japanese food and I always thought the guy who told me that was kind of off his rocker and just biased. But man, looking at the meals and reading what you said, its hard not to think that. Wonderful pictures can’t wait to see more.

And thanks about the engagement!
