kkk 7 Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Pies of course, but thats includes a rather wide range of stuff out there. Problem is, good pies aren't exactly widely available here. Link to post Share on other sites

Davo 1 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Mmmmm...pies. Butaman are nothing in comparison, although they are prolly better for your health. If there was a pie warmer in every combini I would be a kilo or so heavier. Link to post Share on other sites
7-11 2 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Nikumans can be gross. Then again they can be very delicious - best one I had was from a Chinese restaurant in Yokohama, it was great stuff. Worst one I think was a Lawson one, it was not food. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 If I had the choice, I would probably always go for a good meat pie. Don't have the choice unfortunately, so I'll enjoy the mans from time to time. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Pies probably account for a couple of the kgs I put on each summer. I become this Pie Monster when I go back, people comment on my pie intake. In the absence of pies though I will gladly indulge in the utter luxury of some mans from time to time.

giggsy 0 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Whats this "man" in English? Link to post Share on other sites
misorano 1 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 giggsy: A "man" is kind of a dumpling. In the center it has a little bit of meat or other flavoring. Niku Man - Meat dumpling Pizza Man - has a pizza mix in the middle Curry Man - has curry flavor. Conv. stores etc sell them here in the equiv. of a pie warmer. The dough makes up about 90% of the thing and it tastes like rubber. Which is why a lot of gaijin hang out for pies which are not easy to get. Link to post Share on other sites
