Japanese Fare
I've posted pictures of food from Osaka before, but we usually go here for lunch. Tonight we went for dinner and the entrees were presented just a bit fancier. James has udon noodles with shrimp and scallops and I opted for something a bit healthier: tender chicken and veggies with sweet teriyaki sauce. Although I've never personally been outside the Tokyo airport, my husband, who worked in Japan every other month when we first met, assures me that this is as authenic as it gets.
I also wanted to say thanks to those of you who helped me out with food ideas for my dinner party. The fajitas seemed to be the most popular, so this time around I think I'll make something everyone can help with.

They all sound great and like winners. THe fajitas are great w/ cinco de mayo and I think my last place choice would be lasagna because although great for feeding lots of people, it is kinda cliche. Thats what we always do for my sorority group when we have to feed a group of people.
The japanese food you posted looks deeeeelicious!! There is a place here called Osaka. Wonder if it is the same place. Might have to try it out. Mmm, I am starving now and you just made chilis look boring! hehe
Oh, and I have not tried a SE Asian dish yet. Believe it or not, I dont have a wok. I found a site that gives recipes for traditional dishes. Check it out: http://www.makantime.com/indexrecipes.html
