For Americans who are confused about how 7-11 might be a nice place to go and not just a place for soda, cigarettes and lottery tickets, in Japan 7-11 carries higher quality items than what you might find in the U.S. The same is also true of Denny's (an increasingly seedy establishment in the U.S.), which serves high quality seasonal dishes in Japan.

> an increasingly seedy establishment in the U.S. This varies quite a bit depending on where you are. We seem to have three different versions of Denny's here in the Dallas/Ft Worth area alone. One style thet looks like a classic diner, another that's your typical old Denny's architecture, and a few more that are brand new construction. I'm not sure if they're just testing out a concept, but it's been interesting to see that they're still branching out.
