Japan Photo Blog, Vol. 54: Food!

食べ物 🍖

Tabemono. "Food."


In Japanese, tabemono literally means "eat"(tabe) "things"(mono), i.e. "things, which are to be eaten." Pretty straightforward, right?

Today, I want to explore the colorful side of food in Japan and Asia. What better way to do so than through photos of said "tabemono"?!

A nice, fat burger from "The Freshness Burger"! Delicious, if overpriced.
