A Nerd’s Guide to Japan Part 3 – Food

Konnichi wa!  This is the third installment of Geekly’s nerdy coverage of Japanese culture by Michael DiMauro and Carly Shields. After falling in love with the country during a visit in September, 2017, we noticed a lot of other people were contacting us about our experience. In an attempt to help out others on their first trip to Nihon, we’ve put together a 5-part audio series that covers a number of topics from food to nerd attractions.

In the third installment, we cover our many adventures with food. *Please note: These are our own personal experiences and don’t reflect that of Geekly. We’re just two Japan-loving nerds that want to help others find the fun on their trips!

Please enjoy a video of me eating natto at a Denny's. #tokyotrip

Kaiseki complete! 8 courses later, and the final verdict: glad we did it. Don't need to do it again. #japantrip #kyoto
