Arriving in Japan, the amount of complicated Japanese text on the street, in stores, and on appliances can be overwhelming. With Everyday Kanji, you can break down these signs into simple elements in order to understand even the most complicated Japanese. Take the quiz at the end to see how much you remember!

This episode, we are looking at Menu signs that have prices in kanji. These days, most restaurants use numbers written in Arabic numerals like we are used to, but some use kanji numbers. This video looks at the kanji for prices and menu items.

Thanks for all the suggestions on our previous videos. We are trying to constantly improve, so if you have any more suggestions on this series, let us know in the comments section below!

NYC Restaurant Chains Post Calorie Info

Posted on September 5th, 2009 by admin in restaurant menus | 25 Comments »

PlusNYC Restaurant Chains Post Calorie InfoNYC Restaurant Chains Post Calorie InfoThe ociated PressCustomers at big fast-food chains in New York City are finally facing the facts about their meal choices. And for some, the truth may be hard to swallow. The AP’s Ted Shaffrey explains. (July 19)((New York)) Some New Yorkers had a serious case of “calorie shock” on Saturday. “I was like ‘Oh my Gosh’The city started enforcing the nation’s first-ever law requiring chain restaurants to post calorie counts on all menus – leaving some diners to find out their favorite food had hundreds more calories than they had thought. Violating restaurants face fines of up to 2-thousand dollars – it’s not clear how many were cited Saturday. Cathy Nonas of the city’s health department has high hopes for the new law. ((Cathy Nonas, NYC Department of Health)) “We hope this has a huge impact on obesity, and of course if it has an impact on obesity it will have an impact on diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. Some of the calorie counts posted Saturday were very high. ((GRAPHIC OVER VID OF FOOD: 2330 Calories)) At T-G-I Fridays, this appetizer, called a Jack Daniels Sampler has a whopping 2-thousand 330 calories. “We hope the restaurant will be shamed into not offering a 2300 calorie appetizer unless they suggest 10 people share it.” ((GRAPHIC OVER VID OF FOOD ON MENU: 1,110 Calories)) If you were hoping to just have a salad for dinner at Fridays, you might want to avoid this one, it’s got 1110 calories. ((GRAPHIC OVER VIDEO, 480 Calories, then zoom wide to show drink, superimpose 600 calories over the drink)) At Starbucks this little piece of Banana Nut Coffee Cake has 480 calories, while this Vanilla Bean Frappucinno has 600 calories. ((GRAPHIC: 3,073)) At the popular Italian eatery Sbarro, it turns out the Fettuccini Alfredo with Grilled Chicken has 3,073 calories. GRAPHIC: 730 CALORIES)) While the pepperoni pizza has 730 calories. The cheese pizza has 460 calories. This fellow bought two slices. “Was that surprising to you? “No it wasn’t” Fade: “if you want to eat it, you’ll eat it, and you’ll cut back late on in the day if you eat it for lunch, it can be your “slunch.” ((Ted Shaffrey, The ociate Press)) ((New York))
