What are the most popular dishes among Japanese children? When families dine out, where do they go and what do they eat? | |
When eating
at home, Japanese children enjoy both traditional dishes and those of
foreign origin, like hamburger
steak and curry and rice. Children also enjoy ramen (Chinese
noodles), spaghetti, and other noodle dishes.

Eating
out with the family is always a treat. Japan has many different types
of restaurants, including "family restaurants" that serve various Japanese
and non-Japanese food. Also popular are restaurants specializing in traditional
Japanese dishes, such as sushi,
tempura, and noodles made with buckwheat (soba) or flour
(udon), and fast-food restaurants serving hamburgers and fried
chicken.
