◆ Saizeriya affordable but safe and delicious ◆

 



We call Saizeriya a family restaurant.

The word "famiresu" is a Japanese English that is a combination of "family" and "restaurant". I recommend it to a family as well as to those travelers who are on a tight budget.

I often go to Saizeria which is a casual, inexpensive, and family-oriented Italian restaurant, so I recommend it for family with small children or budget traveler. I think it is one of the top three family restaurants in Japan.

My recommended point of Famiresu is below.

- Japanese family restaurants have an excellent system where you push a button to have a waitress comes to you.

- Many family restaurant menus have pictures to make it easier for children who cannot read to choose, and they also have touch screen menus for easy access and multilingual menus for foreign diners (English, Chinese, etc).

- The restaurant is designed to make every diner feels comfortable. For example, they have infant seats so you can tag your babies along. It also has barrier-free restrooms to offer better accommodation.

- In Japan, there is basically no culture of tipping. Foreigners may be surprised to learn that tipping is not acceptable despite the courteous service and reasonable prices.


I hope you’ll have a great time in Japan！

The Global Love Affair with Japanese Culture #1

I t’s not uncommon to encounter people on platforms like YouTube and other social media who, surprisingly, have a deeper love for Japanese culture than many Japanese themselves. Among the aspects they are most passionate about are Japan’s entertainment offerings, such as manga , anime , and movies. The term “ otaku ” has even gained recognition overseas, and many people proudly refer to themselves as otaku. Interestingly, the word “otaku” originally had a  negative connotation  in Japan during the 2000s, used to describe middle-aged men who were enthusiasts of  computers, idols, or two-dimensional anime . However, with the widespread use of computers and smartphones, the term has taken on a positive meaning, referring to “ people who are deeply passionate about something ” or “ those who are highly knowledgeable in a particular field .” One reason for this reevaluation of otaku culture is the phenomenon of Japan’s  manga, anime, movies, games, and cosplay  gai...

Why Japanese Izakaya Culture Is More Than Just Drinking After Work

  Izakaya and the Culture of Entertaining in Japan In Japan,  izakaya  — casual restaurants where people gather to eat and drink — are a common sight. But from an international perspective, izakaya are a unique blend of two worlds: in many Western countries, meals are typically enjoyed at restaurants, while alcohol is reserved for bars or pubs. The combination of food and drink in a single, laid-back setting is part of what makes izakaya culture so special. Izakaya menus are extensive, with dishes meant to be shared among groups. Diners enjoy small plates alongside a wide range of alcoholic options, including beer, sake , shochu , umeshu (plum wine), and fruit-flavored “ chuhai .” One surprising concept for many foreigners is the  “all-you-can-drink”  ( nomihodai ) option, often available for a set time. Late-night hours are another defining feature, with many izakaya staying open until the early morning. It’s common to move from one place to another in a night...
