Japan is almost certainly importing the tuna from foreign countries. The tuna imported from the west coast in the United States is very high-level for the Japanese. A cheap tuna is sold in Japan compared it. It becomes a processed food like the canned food at the same time.
The Japanese knows the taste of the tuna imported from the west coast to be a very delicious dish. There are sashimi and sushi as a dish of Japan. If tuna's part is a high-level part, the price is surely high unlike other parts.

So when I normally break for lunch it's 12:30 at night over in Japan...
Speaking of tuna, do you know how US west coast bluefin got to be really popular over in Japan? |

Salmon's roe is called Ikura in Japanese. Ikura is often processed. Seasoning also. Ikura before being processed has another name. Cod's roe is called Tarako. By the way, when saying, "How much is it?", Japanese is said, "Is this Ikura?" The meaning is different though it is the same pronunciation. |

Roe is good, I used to know the Japanese name when I lived in San Francisco, but I can't remember anymore.

I prepared the noodle. However, only the image of nigiri is put here today because it was the same noodle as yesterday. There is cod's roe in nigiri. The roe is seasoned by the salt and the red pepper. nigiri |

loved B-in-Ls, but sadly they were replaced by an inferior operation, right now the best place for 'Cue are the food trucks that are sprouting up around town |

Yes, Haruki Murakami - "Andaguraundo"(1997).I like Murakami - have around 10 his books,as I know he is one of biggest jazz recordings collector in Japan
 . I even saw his book fully dedicated to his jazz recordings collection in book store,didn't buy it that time (the language of translation wasn't the one I prefer to read books),but unfortunately never saw it again

Re John: The impression of the public peace changed into Japan a little due to this event. Japan might have been recognized that the public peace was good. However, a little brutal crime increased in Japan since this event.

I had read Haruki Murokami's book based on this group's gas attack story in Tokyo's underground - mostly interviews with people who survived and how their lives changes after that.

Re Kazu: yes the news of that subway attack was big news in the US.
What a very cowardly and mean spirited way to go after people, very disturbing story, I wouldn't be too surprised if somebody in the US did that too though.

I don't recall any fried chicken in SF, There were two BBQ chicken places in SF I liked. Brother in Laws on Divisedero, and oddly enough, the punkish club Zeitgeist.
There was one place in the Fillmore that probably had fried chicken (I can't remember the name) but I always got the catfish.

* I was amazed to see the Italians love McDonalds, and that the food at the European Micky D's is, no surprise, fresh and well-prepared  |

By the way, the subway in Japan is such feeling.
 16 years ago. The event that happened in the subway in Japan happened. The cult group in Japan put the liquid and the gas of the poison on the vehicle in the subway. The event is still continuing by the trial of Japan. The news might have been spread to foreign countries.

That looks like fermented soybean, that is a very intense flavor, it is too strong for me.

I want to make the salad. Because the garlic salt is not sold, it is likely can do nothing but mix it by homemade. It is a little expensive though I want the olive in Japan. If I mimic and make it, the salad is surely an imitation.
