Oddly, despite all that eating I did in Tokyo, I actually lost weight which goes to show how healthy Japanese food is and how portion control is important. I ate Japanese food at every opportunity – sushi, onabe, oden, etc. – at every meal except when my girlfriends took me to (at my request) a delicious Indian restaurant near Tokyo JR station. Indian food in Tokyo is very good and when I told the chef that I was from Silicon Valley and thought his food was better than the Silicon Valley Indian food, he was beaming – and it wasn’t a flattery – it was true. The flavors were delicate and well spiced…(but portions small – the Japanese standard). I am always so impressed with Japanese baked goods and here at Indian eatery as well. Best Nan and dosa… <\/p>\n

Last to leave being last to get seated… late dinner is not my thing but:) making exceptions…chefs are waiters are cleaning up so … a hint that it’s time to go.

The place was packed and could not get a reservation until 8:30pm… Here’s the link to the restaurant site – menu in English as well … Click the restaurant name: Dhaba India<\/a>
\nOr you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner – all Japanese, everyday:) but so much variety in mega-city, that is, Tokyo:)<\/p>\n

Ganesha greeted us! Felt at home – weird isn’t it? A Japanese coming back from America, at Indian restaurant in hometown, Tokyo and feeling at home? <\/p>\n

In case you were beginning to wonder…<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m not so weird to me.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
