Damn, didn't take pics.
Was recently in Ensenada, Mexico. Their fish tacos are absolutely bomb.

You guys are all making me fuggin jealous. I'm stuck in Ottawa and head a beaver tail..In general,
Is Japan really that expensive for dining out? Obviously you went to some first class diners, but what about their medium range selection? Say, $30 per head. Is this doable?

[IfUCare]

the incredible thing i found about japan is that you can get a fantastic meal for 10 bucks or for 1000 bucks. You have do to your research before hand, and gotta know some basic Japanese. The best places are often a run down place, in an alley. You gotta know where you're looking before hand.

[Ikkaku]

dang jer, i love the seafood at sai kung! each time we go back, we would for sure get the la liu ha and those smaller abalones!

[neggo]

I thought you guys might be able to help me out as I didn't want to make a sole thread for my question.

I'm currently living in Japan and will be heading to Tokyo next week. While the food here has been amazing to say the least, I really can't seem to find Chinese food comparable to what is available in Vancouver. Good Yum Cha is even harder to find.

Anyone know a good Dim Sum place in Tokyo or Yokohama? I know Yokohama has a Chinatown but even the Chinese food there may be a bit more Japanese.

[murd0c]

^ I know I'm not helping much but our Chinese food is some of the best in the world. I have been all over (not to Asia yet) and it's really hard to find the quality I have for the prices we pay.

[JKam]

^ I know I'm not helping much but our Chinese food is some of the best in the world. I have been all over (not to Asia yet) and it's really hard to find the quality I have for the prices we pay.

IMO we probably have some of the best indian food in the world but I've never been to India or anywhere that has a large Indian population outside of Surrey.
