Japanese cuisine

The first night here we found a string of noodle bars. The interesting thing was that you ordered from a vending machine outside the shop. We weren't positive about what we were going to get as some of the pictures were a little vague and faded. Once ordered we were shown inside and seated and from there it was a full service restaurant. The variety of food was great and all very delicious. Last night after  wandering around for about 20 minutes trying to find a place that would take 10 people, we were approached by a nice young man who said follow me.  We thought there was safety in numbers so off we went down the street and into a  tiny elevator. What a surprise...a beautiful little busy restaurant with a chef who looked to be about 100 banging out meals at lightening speed. Absolutely superb meals with super fresh ingredients. Sake all round and we had a great evening.   Noodle house first night around $10 a head. Secret restaurant last night around $30 a head including drinks. Not bad considering I always thought Japan was an expensive destination.
