#4 Shin Nihongo no Kiso

#3 Is it Safe to Travel to Japan

Published on May 14th this article came out just two months after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami disaster in Japan. I had a lot of people asking me whether Japan was Safe to Visit and this article put to bed some of the fears that people had about travelling to the main tourist areas in Japan.




#2 Easy to Cook Japanese Recipe Yakisoba

Published on April 10th this easy to cook Japanese recipe has been very popular. Yakisoba is a popular takeaway dish in Japan and is usually served with a fried egg on top and with some Japanese mayonnaise. It is a popular festival food and can be found all over Japan.




#1 Mos Burger in Australia

Published on June 28th this article has surprisingly been the most popular for 2011. Looks like there are a lot of Mos Burger lovers out there and the burger chain has been highly anticipated in Australia. Mos Burger is a famous hamburger chain restaurant in Japan that pitches itself as a gourmet burger chain that is healthier than its rivals.

    First of all, I would like to say thank you so much for leaving trails in my blog - Travel & Living Journal of DT.

    Second, thanks for the sharing. It is useful when I am going Japan again in future. I quite miss Japan sometimes. Which part are you in Japan? Maybe we could meet up when I am going Japan :D
