B-grade foods.
What makes you to be excited when you travel abroad?
Talking about myself, it's definitely food!
Japanese are known as a gourmet, so even it's cheap, the quality is still good enough!
I'd like to introduce some of our "B-grade(cheap but tastes good)" foods today.
#1 Beef bowl☆
You might have eaten before in your country.
I see Tomo sometimes takes out for her lunch.

Not only beef bowl but some morning sets (we call it Asa-teishoku) are available.
If you want to try Japanese traditional breakfast such as rice, miso-soup, fish and pickles,
there is one near by;)
#2 Curry and rice
Different from Indian's one, we eat them with rice instead of naan.
Tsuyoshi often goes to Coco-ichi after his night shift.
We serve it here at our hostel at 500 yen anytime♪
#3 Oden
Have you ever tried this before?
I do not because there are many ingredients, unfortunately:(

If you go to any convenience stores, you will find oden in front of the counters.
You can order what you want and the shop staff will put them into a bowl with soup.
#4 Ramen
It is already known as Japan's most popular dishes
and Naoto&Tomo have it at least 2 days a week★

Ramen map is available at the front desk:)

That was by far the best part of my trip! I miss that food so much! Japanese restaurants outside Japan are just not the same...
I can't remember the name of this food chain that had a bowl of rice with 3 tempura shrimp and a miso soup for 6 yen.... yummy!
