How do you know about Japanese foods? Sushi, Ramen, Takoyaki,,, We have a lot of tasty foods. I wan you guys to try many kinds of Japanese foods as long as you can, but I reccommend you guys to try especially Sushi, since it’s my favorite and so traditional. I know Sushi is a little bit dangerous in your country, but here in Japan, you would never get nauseous or an upset stomack owing to Japanese hygeniec management system. So, you should try it without hasitation.

So, if you hit Japan up accidently 😉 or intentionally, you will encounter the chance to enter the Japanese resutaurant. And if you don’t speak Japanese at all, you will be awkward to try it, so, I’ll show you brief phrases used in restaurants.

When you enter restaurants.

Ishida

いらっしゃいませ。なんめいさまですか？（Irasshaimase.　nanmeisama desuka?)
　　　 Hi. How many ppl are in your party.

Eric　family

You: ひとりです、 ふたりです、さんにんです、よにんです・・・（　Hitori desu、Hutari desu、Sannindesu、Yonindesu・・・）
　　　１，２，３，４，・・・

　　※　　Actually, you can just gesture the number in your party or you can say numbers in English. They’ll difenately get what you mean.

After you have a seat and try to order.
