The basics of a Tokyo breakfast.

A traditional Japanese breakfast consists of steam rice, miso soup and side dishes.  Common side dishes are grilled or smoked fish, a type of rolled omelet and pickled vegetables. The rice is steamed and served without seasoning.

While it seems untraditional to the Western palette, this typical Japanese breakfast is a balanced meal with protein, iron, other essential minerals as well as A, B and C vitamins.

Hotels and restaurants that cater to Western tourists often offer cold cereal and an egg breakfast similar to what visited are accustomed to back home.
