A lot of work... and a lot of food

We worked long on Wednesday, until almost midnight. But we always started late the day, around 10 am (Here people sldom come to work before 10). And we always went out for lunch. Our Japanese hosts took us every day to a different restaurant, trying out a new type of food each time.

So on Wednesday we ate some Tempura (てんぷら), a kind of a deep-fried fish and sea food (squid, eel, crab, shrimps). Unfortunately I have no picture of that (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempura).

On Thursday we had Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き) a savoury pancake with various ingredients (mine was with squid) - see the pictures. More about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okonomiyaki
