I'm traveling to Tokyo in a few weeks for work, I've never been to Japan before and would like to try some new things and different types of restaurant/bars there. Unfortunately I'm allergic to seafood so that's the main limiting factor. What should I try? Also, general Japanese food thread.
>>21953084>I am allergic to seafoodJust go to Ribera and get a steak, and hit up 7/11 for the fluffy bread egg sandwich and call it a day.
>>21953084Mountain yams and natto
>>21953084McDonald's
>going to Japan and I’m allergic to seafood>going to Italy and I’m allergic to flour and tomatoes>going to France and I’m allergic to wine and cheese>going to South America and I’m allergic to beef>going to India and I’m allergic to poo>going to Ireland and I’m allergic to lucky charms and beer>going to England and I’m allergic to deep-fried stargazy knicknack paddywhack bitterbocker dongleberry teatime pie
>>21953084yoshinoya beef bowl. then go to jonathans and get whatever "western" monstrosity looks good to you and drink 7 different types of drink at the drink bar.
>>21953084I mean, japs eat a lot of shit from the sea, but it's hardly the only stuff they eat.
>>21953084Gyoza, pork katsu, Japanese fried chicken, just eat at little Chinese restaurants and avoid actual Japanese food altogether.
Go to Tempura and wine OSHIO in GinzaIt's incredibly delicious.Try the Camembert tempura for surehttps://maps.app.goo.gl/6uDoc1HJhNnUkcir5Also, not food, but the trip to the Hakone Yuuryo onsen in Hakone is very worth it, it's divine.
>>21953099if the allergy extends to dashi then it's just about everything they eat.
Kyushu No. 1 Star Is my favorite ramen there, the owner really works hard on his broth
>>21953084>seafood allergyIs it all seafood, or just chitin from crabs/prawns? It is very rare to be allergic to fish and squid.
>>21953099Yeah, this is why I'm asking.>>21953119All shellfish and seaweed, I just avoid anything from water just in case. Would prefer not to eat squid/octopus because they're smart. Never tried eel so I'm not sure about that but they're endangered anyway so not too keen on it>>21953097>>21953105>>21953108Thank you
>>21953130>seaweedUH OH
>>21953182Yeah, he shouldn't be drinking any broth/soup over there for sure
>>21953130>>21953186even stuff like beef bowls usually use some amount of dashi in the cooking process.just be cautious and ask or let them know of your allergy, OP. but you can get some good yakitori/yakiniku, tempura, and karaage with little worry I'd think.
>>21953130How the hell are you allergic to seaweed
>>21953261unfortunately it's a thing
>>21953130>All shellfish and seaweedYou aren't surviving your trip, nice knowing you anon you should at least take out a nice life insurance policy before you go to leave something for your family.
>>21953130>seaweedWhat are your symptoms? Full blown anaphylaxis?
>>21953096>going to Ethiopia and I'm allergic to nothing
>>21953261I heard about this on twitter there's something called a "protist" in seaweed like sprial somethign that they're gonna make us eat like the bugs
>>21953096>>21953442Boredom: the posts
>>21953628Could say the same thing about your post.I mean come on, we're both bored if were posting at 4:30 AM.
>>21953427At least I will finally see Japan after spending most of my life on an anime website>>21953438It seems kind of random so it's hard to manage, sometimes I get facial swelling but my throat is fine, other times it's just mild itching. Not a fun roulette though
>>21953628Fag: the poster
>>21953084gyudon, oyakodon, curry, omurice, napolitan, Kobe/waygu steak, sweet dishes, sandos of various types there's like too many dishes to list all that that dont have seafood.you will be fine and if you aren't used to Japanese food the dishes I have named all appeal to the western palate
>>21953099> japsi don’t think it’s politically correct to call the slants “japs” anymore
>>21953887>>21953130>seaweeduh oh, yeah be very careful. maybe skip the gyudon and oyakodon unless they say they can make it with nothing seaweed related. they put seaweed in a massive amount of their dishes.
>>21953628>going to Atlantis and I'm allergic to water
>>21953084Saizeriya
>>21953084just go to mcdonalds, japan :0 and get some of their cool stuff. guaranteed seaweed free probably
>>21953130>Never tried eel so I'm not sure about that but they're endangered anyway so not too keen on itmajority of the eels are farm raised. (except they don't know how to breed them so they just catch the babies and grow them)
>>21956452somehow this makes it worse
