Hey reddit - I teach English in Japan and I’m doing a lesson about food. I wanna show these lil japs the bastardized Western versions of their own cuisine to get their thoughts on it. You got any suggestions?

I live in Japan and people here genuinely think that corn on pizza is delicious and some sort of hidden italian delicacy. People here are really fucking nuts about italian food but can never remotely cook anything like it. There are loads upon loads of "italian" restaurants here but when you go in it's always some weird fucking japanese ripoff where they fuck up all of the dishes by adding jap shit like raw squid and eel and shit to it and then they try to fucking play it off as "real italian food". It doesn't help that people here don't know what normal bread or cheese is. It's all fucking gross. I have not had any normal-tasting cheese in all the time I've lived here, and good bread is about as rare as a properly paid salaryman. These people are born on this island, they will live their whole lives on this island, and they will die on this island without ever tasting real bread or cheese in their life and that's just sort of sad. The worst part is that because no japanese person actually knows what real italian food is like, nobody can call restaurants out on this bullshit, everyone eats it all up and calls it "honto ni umaiiiii uwuwuwuwu" and everyone thinks this is what real italian food is like. It's just sad. "OOOOOhhhh rettsu addu fishu eggu andu seaweedu to pasta carbonara don't u kno this is how rearu itarian peeporu eat!!!". The worst part for me is that japan doesn't just massacre classic italian food like this, but they also do it with every other country's cuisine imaginable. French, spanish, mexican, turkish, you name it. They botch everything they come across as "wow foreign so cool" but it's never apparently fucking good enough unless they douse it in soy sauce and raw octopus to make it "authentic european" food. Don't get me wrong I love me some japanese food but fuck this country for ruining foreign food culture and fuck the people for being too retarded to not know what real food is like, even though they kind of can't help it, fuck em it's gross

Stop wasting your time with that shit, shut up and actually teach them fucking English.
They don't give a shit about food and off topic bullshit like what you're doing is why the industry went to shit.

im gonna start a traditional italian restaurant right outside of a city in japan on a few acres of farmland for fresh ingredients and make my own buffalo milk mozz on site and make it one of the most expensive restaurants in japan. the stark difference in what they consider italian food and what I sell will be almost enough on its own to get it 2-star worthy praise.

There are plenty of good Italian restaurants in Japan with chefs who have studied and trained in Italy. I'm sure there are bad ones too but it's incorrect to say you can't find any good or "real" Italian food in Japan.

>> No.14721197

>>14721171
I can understand why its harder to find traditional italian foods as well as why japanese culture puts their spin on it. for one, pretty much none of the things that grow nor the space to raise the livestock exist in japan. like olives, tomatoes, grapes, buffalo milk mozz, etc. so itd all have to be imported if you cared about being authentic. Also every country distorts immigrant food. While corn on pizza is weird, japans twist on italian is probably closer than alot of other countries' because most of the meat consumed in both italy and japan is fish. something widely overlooked especially in america. italians eat a fuckload of seafood, but i struggle to find even real first gen immigrant italian owned restaurants that include seafood here in the us

Japanese people don't like foreign food, they just like foreign-inspired Japanese play food. Even their Chinese and Korean food is Japanesed up for their tender palates. Pasta flavored with fish sperm and ketchup. Squid carbonara. If it's not bland it's undercooked and gooey. Japanese cuisine is a meme.

Just make some shit up like wasabi octopus ponzu and rice with some off flavour kit-Kat .They probably eat that anyways, but where you need to get creative is the naming convention such as the Nagasaki Blast (blackend chicken with hot sauce), the Nanking Mess (uses rape seed oil) , and the Surprise!

lol. its better than what I used to do. I would just put on english learning songs/videos from youtube on ipad and would call it a day. When any Japanese staff tried to intervene I would tell them very sternly to stop interrupting my teaching. I would drink 2 cans of chu-hi and smoke at the pachinko place next to my work on my lunch break. Nobody said anything. It was a very shoddy English school, we even had a Greek person as a english teacher and I could rarely hold a conversation with him as he couldn't understand English too well. The funniest thing was watching his lessons where he would teach the kids pronunciation with his heavy Greek accent.

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!
