JFB: The Japanese Foods Blog

This blog is mainly about japanese foods (which I happen to love) and happened to love even more when I lived in tokyo for about 4 months. It also contains some non-japanese foods. We cooked some of the foods. Some of the foods we didn't cook. This blog also contains some stuff about travel as it pertains to foods. Some of the pictures were taken with a decent camera. Many of the pictures were taken with a crappy cellphone camera. You get the idea.

Our own cooking style is very ad hoc and we tend to stick to simple stuff. I've put pseduo-recipes where I think it's warranted. If you want more recipes you can contact me and I'll try to remember. Most of this stuff was oishii (deeelicious) unless otherwise noted.

So Hiro’s dad had promised to not only take us to his favorite chinese restaurant, but also to his favorite unagi restaurant. I have to say that since unagi is one my most favorite foods in the whole world, that makes him one of my most favorite people in the world.

We start out with this lovely appetizer of sashimi (raw) shirasu, which are larval sardines with some wasabi, fresh ginger, and shiso- the latter is a strong tasting mint-like plant that often comes with sashimi.
