I had McD's yesterday and i did miss their teriyaki burger with egg, it is quite good, and the combo of fries, drink and burger is about 640Y, which is just a bit more than the American combo, but i would say the size of their meals are a bit smaller.
I had Hiroshima Okonomiyaki the other day, they have their own style which has soba or udon noodles combined inside, and it is really interesting how they prepare it, it really does take some time to create each one, but let me tell you, it is american sized portions, and quite delicous! The other style is the Osaka okonomiyaki with its own sauce.

McD's Teriburger is the best! I like the "Modanyaki" with the soba. Have you tried monja?

Yes, that white part between the burger and the cheese is an egg. Wish they sold these in the States.
What, you guys don't get eggs on hamburgers over there? Most hamburger joints here will put them on if you ask, or have them on the menu already (Not McD's though)

Nope, in the states eggs have pretty much no relationship to hamburgers.. the only connection I know is from my father who was from Denmark - he would occasionally make beef patties that he'd eat with sauteed onions and a sunny side up egg. _________________

for 640Yen, the McD teriyaki with Tamago combo is not too bad, and i might have another before heading back home.
I do have to say the highlight of what i had so far is most places i had curry, as it is all good, and not bad in price, i would say very comparable to Curry House back home, about near or lower than 1000Yen for a plate of delicous curry. I had Indian Curry in Shinjuku at a bit higher in price, and the Okonomiyaki in Hiroshima was very good as well. I had spaghetti with softboiled egg mixed in at a Maid Cafe, I had Ramen at many ramen shops, and chicken/beef don, as well. I wasn't too impressed with Lotteria, and for 710Yen, i didn't think it was worth it, and the bacon was actually a slice of ham, more or less. But overall i do have to say i like the food here, even if i ate more on the budget end. My idea of walking in a high-end place, not knowing much Japanese would be ideal, and plus i prefer to keep it simple and prefer to spend my money elsewhere, but still i did get my feel of some good Japanese food, mixed in with economy onigiri at the Combini, which is fine with me.
There pastries and soft-drinks, teas are very good as well. I recommend Mannekan which i found another store in Akihabara too. There belgium waffles are awesome!

wheeeee.
just had cupcakes and icing, both made from scratch.
i regretted using metal liners instead of paper liners, cause paper liners are easier to remove than metal liners. when i try to remove the liner, i ALWAYS get my hands icing-ed

We'll have to ask Esther-chan if the waffles in Japan are as good as the real thing. And if the Japanese food in Belgium is any good
They are lovely! I had them only once at the Kyoto trainstation and they were yummy.
Good Japanese food can be found in Brussels, there are a few restaurants and I cross-checked my list with the head of our representative office in Tokyo - he lived 5 years in Brussels.
Should you ever go to Brussels and feel having Japanese food here they are:
- YAMAYU SANTATSU
- YAMATO - Ramen only
- TAGAWA
- HAMASHIN
- AJIYOSHI - counter restaurant

Cool.
I always thought it was peculiar and interesting to hear of ethnic restaurants in other parts of the world... Like a kosher restaurant in China...

Excellent!
We actually have some good friends in Belgium. In fact i'm probably more likely to eat Japanese food in Brussels than in Tokyo

I like the "Modanyaki" with the soba. Have you tried monja?
