Tokyo has a reputation as one of the world’s most expensive cities for eating, but it certainly doesn’t need to be. Alongside some explosively expensive restaurants are other places with prices that are reasonable even by American standards. Don’t worry if you can’t make sense … more of the menu. Many restaurants have amazingly lifelike plastic models of their dishes in the front window, making it easy to point and eat. Good places for restaurant browsing include Roppongi Hills, Tokyo Midtown and the Shibuya district, with dozens of options from food courts to celebrity-chef-helmed hotspots. For a quick grab ’n’ go, department store food floors, and even convenience stores, offer inexpensive and wholesomely prepared and packaged foods.
