Do you mean eating out as a vegetarian is a nightmare?
I'm pescatarian myself, and when I visited I found my options were more limited. But I'm not sure if it's because of a higher than US meat % or perhaps I think it might have been more due language barrier + culture of eating meal as prepared (no asking for no-meat).
- lovemenot 8y agoDefinitely the latter. Source: vegetarian for 10 years, when living in Europe and USA. Pescatarian since 1997 after moving to Japan. I could be vegetarian now, if I chose, but it would be harder than in those other two regions. However, it's easier to be pescatarian in Japan with just a little language. Don't eat ramen or gyousa though. There'll almost certainly be pork, even if they claim otherwise - what do they know? Other common dishes such as soba, udon, tendon should always be fine unless obviously not.
