And here's my first meal in Japan since I was 17
I took karaage set. These Japanese set meals are like a sort of puzzle where you have to figure out in what order to eat everything to get the best taste combinations.
Here's how I ate it:
1) dip karaage in mayo, take a bite
2) sip beer
3) eat the cabbage
4) eat the rice
5) drink miso soup
And repeat this exact sequence. After I finished it all, I ate tofu as a palate refreshener (divided it into 4 pieces, one bite of tofu and then one sip of beer)
After the last bite of tofu I made the last sip of beer and left very satisfied
