If you do get sick in Japan, the good news is that there are many delicious foods to help you feel better in no time.
In Japan, some food items’ names are similar to the original English name. For example, if you ask, “Can I have a corndog?”
The greasy, sweet and sour taste of “Naporitan spaghetti” is very popular among Japanese.
If you ask me, taco rice is the kind of food that is hard not to like. Since it was invented in 1984 by Matsuo Gibo, who owned fast-food joint Parlor Senri near Camp Hansen, taco rice has grown to be one of the most beloved tastes of Okinawa.
Growing up in Okinawa, ice cream bars and popsicles were my go-to sweets during hot summer days.
King Tacos is a legendary Japanese Mexican restaurant located in Kin Town on the main island of Okinawa. It is best known as the birthplace of taco rice. Taco rice is a fusion of Mexican and Japanese food created by Matsuzo Gibo, who came up with the original dish in 1984 at his restaurant Parlor Senri also in Kin Town.
If you think of alcohol and Japan, then the first thing that springs to mind is sake – but there are other alcoholic drinks too, one of which comes from the island of Okinawa! Awamori is an alcoholic drink which is also known as shimazakae, or island sake.
MCIPAC Fire and Emergency Services, Provost Marshal’s Office, Substance Abuse Control Office, and commanders all respond to and manage Alcohol-Related Incidents, and emphasize the effect ARIs have on the Marines, their families, and the community at large.
For those of you venturing out in town on Feb. 2, be sure to watch out for flying beans and fleeing ogres.
Growing up, subuta, a sweet and sour pork dish, was not my favorite.
Much like Angadi how is dubbed the “Okinawan doughnut,” “Sanguwachi Guwashi (sweets of March)” should be called the “Okinawan financier” in my opinion.
As I was on my way back home, I stumbled upon Café The Palm, a new establishment on a hill overlooking the southern coast.
In Okinawa, King Tacos is almost like a synonym for taco rice.
Before 2020, Captain Kangaroo near Tapic Stadium Nago was known for its hearty burgers. Now, this burger joint has become a spot to grab Okinawa’s signature dish, taco rice.
