Raw fish is obviously a staple in Japanese diet. Fish was often served for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Super fresh or in a to-go box from the store, fish was everywhere.
When it wasn't fish and rice, it might be noodles. Sold from a vending machine, if you couldn't read the sign, you might not know what you were going to get. We coined the term "Ramen Roulette." You might get a big bowl of who-knows-what... or you might get the American style ramen we all know so well, "Cup-O-Noodle."
We also had some very fancy meals. Take that Benihana! This place was incredible!
We also tried a few of the classic Yakitori bars, known for their chicken skewers that pair well with happy hour beers.
And yes, we were also very confused as to why there where mannequins seated around the restaurant??? Maybe so you don't have to feel alone if dining solo? Odd...
