Unagi Don is delicious and also hilariously expensive. Eel is very good when prepared by being barbequed.
Katsudon and Oyakodon are both interesting as they’re also very tasty due to the inclusion of dashi when setting the eggs.
They’ve done some culinary crimes to spaghetti that I support.
Japanese Curry is actually kind of its own thing, being more of a stew with a finishing roux. It is basically taken straight from India though I think(?) its become its own thing now.
Did they invent natto? That’s not a good thing necessarily but they might’ve done it.
i thought japanese curry was one of those “white people foods” from the meiji era that japanese people thought was the reason white people were big and tall and successful. so because the brits looked at the rich and extremely varied culinary traditions of india and said “it’s all bits of veg in yellow gravy innit” and then made a dish called curry consisting of bits of veg in yellow gravy, the japanese saw the british sailors eat that and made their own version
