This review is from: Eating in Japan (Jtb's Illustrated Book Series, Vol 3) (No. 3) (Paperback Bunko)
No disrespect of course, but you will! It is a tiny pocket sized guide to eating while abroad in Japan. I have never been, but I am planning, so I decided to bring something travel sized and packed with info. This is both. Along with explaining proper ettiquite when dining in and out, it has a lot of illustrations, explanations, and variations of the many foods you will find in the varied regions of Nippon. I learned that "dancing" means the food is still alive, and that there is such a thing as horse sashimi (raw thinly sliced horse meat) both of which I want to stay away from. The book has a cleverness to it that makes for interesting, anytime light reading. I find myself recognizing japanese words in my day to day when I shop at the Asian markets or dine at sushi bars in NYC. Knowledge is power, so keep weird stuff out of your mouth, and buy this book!
