Good Afternoon all.

I'm going out for dinner tomorrow night to a Japanese restaurant,now I might sound like a rookie but I've never been to a Japanese restaurant before any suggestions to what would be the healthiest/healthier option?

    Sasimi! Or is this authentic japanese? If so... Nattō, fish, and lots of pickled veggies. Or takoyaki... Hmm...


    What "japanese food" restaurant is it? Sushi? AUTHENTIC japanese? Hibachi?

    Steamed veggies and brown rice if they offer it. Any fish/protein without heavy sauces, tempura, and not fried. Japanese is much easier to eat than Chinese in terms of low fat/calories.

    If you like sushi, that's also a good choice.
