Japan

: Japan itself is recognized as a mecca for great cuisine from all parts of the world, with the Michelin Red Guide awarding Tokyo more stars than any other city it surveys, according to The Japan Times. The dedicated and enthusiastic diners of Japan capital have attracted major international food franchises and famed chefs, who have opened branches of their establishments there at an ever-increasing rate in recent years. Sushi is available in the most unexpected places, and dishes like tempura, sashimi and teriyaki can be readily found, too. Japan pavilion at Expo Milano 2015 will feature a variety of Japanese food as a model of a sustainable, balanced and healthy diet aimed at alleviating food shortages and addressing ecology concerns. Washoku, or traditional Japanese cuisine, which was given UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage designation in 2013, is what is often considered the only authentic Japanese cuisine. The pavilion will also allow visitors to sample some of the delicious and flavorful tastes that Japan offers. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
