Feel Like Eating Japanese Tonight?

Golgo_13 · Feb 3, 2004, 14:30

What would you rather have?

If you don't see what you like, tell us.

I don't really consider Takoyaki or Okonomiyaki dinner food so I didn't include them in the poll.

Erik · Feb 3, 2004, 16:05

Okonomiyaki and Takoyaki not dinner?! It's a matter of opinion I guess!

Okinomiyaki is much more filling than yakitori!

Haivart · Feb 4, 2004, 05:15

Actually, I'm doing Japanese twice-baked potatoes tonight. Yummy.

Golgo_13 · Feb 4, 2004, 05:44

Have some Mexican re-fried beans with that

kirei_na_me · Feb 4, 2004, 05:46

Don't have beef, so I'm not going to do nikujaga. Have chicken, will do oyako donburi... ;) Two of my favorites.

Had little kid's wading pool filled with live eels. You got a 18 IN fishing pole with a treble hook & no bait. After you yanked 1 out they cooked it right there on a little habatchi. For a certain time around cherry blossum time they were everywhere!!
What was the name for the cooked eel ??

Unagi no Kabayaki!

I remember the little ponds with gold fish that you try to scoop out with a thing made of Cleenex.

Im in the mood for some sukiyaki or oden, but it looks like its australia-fuu yakiniku for me today!

Golgo_13 · Mar 9, 2004, 06:12

"Oishiso" is "It looks good". If you ate it, say "Oishikattaaaaa!"

Buntaro · Mar 9, 2004, 08:08

I could never understand why the Japanese love Mayo so much.

The Hellman's Company should be ecstatic to hear this.

I hate mayo! I never use it for anything.

However, I like Ketchup and Tonkatsu Sauce. I also use miso and soy sauce all the time.

kirei_na_me · Mar 10, 2004, 05:13

Tonkatsu sauce! I use it for everything! Well, almost...

Golgo_13 · Mar 10, 2004, 05:34

But I also love A-1 Steak Sauce on a huge medium-rare steak.

I wish they had that in Japan.
