Hello Everyone,

This is my first post but I have been lurking around for a bit now. I'll be teaching in Japan in November, Yokohama to be exact. I understand that most ppl are in Japan to save money but do you have any restaurant recommendations? It doesn't have to be Japanese. I want to create a list of places that I should try while I'm in Japan. So if the restaurant is not in Yokohama, post it. Who knows, I might be heading that way sometime. I don't mind trying restaurants a little pricier if the experience is worth it. Then again, I would also love to try any good vendors on the street.
