I'm sure by now you're panicking over the prices of food here in Tokyo huh? Don't worry. There is still SOME hope for lesser mortals like us.
To survive, my buddy and I frequent the MOS Burger joints (it's the Japanese version of good old McDonald's).
But be warned: Japanese food looks good but comes in PETITE portions!
I had to consume TWO burgers in order to satisfy my hunger pangs :-(( i.e. I ordered their Spicy MOS Cheeseburger (350 Yen) AND a hotdog (310 Yen). Throw in a soft drink (200 Yen), a soup (200 Yen) and a packet of french fries (240 Yen) and this meal of mine (for ONE person) came up to US$11! Sigh. I know, I know... It's expensive. Again, look at this on the bright side... At least it's MUCH cheaper than feasting on sashimi. Duh.
They come in cute PETITE portions. Guys, you may need to buy TWO portions in order to be filled!!
Favorite Dish: Spicy Mos Cheeseburger AND their hotdogs. VERY delicious. I personally think it tastes BETTER than Burger King and McDonald's! Don't believe me? Check them out yourself. ;-)
