Mick Rich 78 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I was going to hijack the "Christmas supplies in Japan" post but thought I'd open this up:- Can anyone recommend somewhere in Kanagawa or Tokyo where I can get a decent Christmas dinner, as this'll be my 3rd consecutive Christmas abroad and I'm getting severe withdrawal symptoms! I should add that I'm British, so need Brussel Sprouts and pigs in blankets!! Link to post Share on other sites

mitchpee 10 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Mick, I should be in Japan for Christmas. May have to get some people together for a dinner, the Turkey is on me! Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Now THAT, as opposed to KFC, is what I call Christmas spirit! The only problem I have is that my mum is visiting me over Christmas and I wouldn't wish that on anyone else Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 How about cake and a date....When in Japan, right? We order a couple roast chickens from our local meat guy. They are a great substitute for the turkey. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Last year the local supermarket sold whole Turkeys, albeit really small suspiciously-like chicken sized ones. I bought it and roasted it all the same......damn nice it was too!! Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 In our home, Boxing Day lunch is left over turkey, ham, chips and pickles. Almost enjoy that as much as the main. Or, maybe not. But it's still fab. And not that I have had that for a while either. Link to post Share on other sites

seemore 66 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 One of those dodgy burgers from the Seiko Mart that they heat up for you or maybe 2. And some chocolate. Hopefully the Rusutsu resort will have something if the Seiko Mart runs out of burgers. Seemore Link to post Share on other sites
