Additional Information
Japanese food, once little more than a niche occupant in the greater scope of American cuisine, has become increasingly popular in recent years. Japanese cuisine is known around the world for its distinctive taste and appearance, and Japanese chefs take much pride in their presentation. Aesthetically pleasing displays of the various dishes are just as important as the meal itself. Each one of the Japanese dishes is artfully arranged in individual bowls, plates and dishes for each person. Some courses can be presented at one time and eaten in no particular order.
With the wonderful harmony of flavors and lightness that is emphasized in the typical Japanese dish, Japanese food is popular with many people in the United States in particular where heavy and often deep fried foods have long dominated the market.
