| Think of fast food, and you think of cheap and readily available snacks like
hamburgers and ready-made sandwiches. But in Tokyo, there is much more to fast
food than just these items. People seeking a quick bite in Japan's capital city
will find, alongside the usual burger and fried-chicken chains, an array of establishments
offering home-grown Japanese specialties, such as ramen,
soba,
and udon
noodles; curry
rice; conveyor-belt
sushi; and bowls of rice topped with meat, seafood, or chicken-and-egg. The
variety is truly world-class, and new temptations are forever joining the list.
A comprehensive directory of Tokyo's fast-food options would fill a huge book,
but here is a brief overview. |
