I’ve always liked Japanese food. In fact, I just went to a Japanese restaurant last week with my sister and my mom. There were so many choices of food to choose from on the menu, I didn’t know what to get! So I decided to make a list of all the food that I was interested it in, then choose from them. I looked at the menu for a long time. Finally, I chose what I wanted to eat, ‘gyudon’, which was beef and sauce covered on top of rice. It tasted delicious! I loved the taste of the beef and sauce mixed together with the rice. It gave the plain rice a special flavor.

My sister ordered ‘soba’ which was a type of noodle that was made out of buckwheat and was as thick as spaghetti. It was served cold and was dipped in a special type of sauce. I tried some of it and it tasted good but not as great as my ‘gyudon’ :P!

My mom ordered a Japanese styled pizza which was called ‘okonomiyaki’. It was just like pizza except with seafood, vegetables, meat, and a type of salad covering it. At first, when it was just served, it was on a hot pan, which made a seaweed looking type of food wiggle around. The first time my mom gave me a piece to try, I refused to eat it because I thought that the seaweed- like food was alive. But now I know that it was just the heat that was causing the seaweed- like food to wiggle and move around (phew!). Overall, I really do like Japanese food, and will eat it again next time.
