LONDON (Thursday, 8 August 2019): National Geographic Traveller Food has picked out the 11 dishes that define Japanese cuisine. In the latest issue, distributed free with September鈥檚 National Geographic Traveller (UK), we put the spotlight on a culinary culture that鈥檚 both familiar and mysterious, filling in the gaps with a cover story featuring author Tim Anderson鈥檚 impassioned ode to ramen, and chef Rei Masuda鈥檚 considered thoughts on sushi.

Glen Mutel, editor of National Geographic Traveller Food, said: 鈥淲ith the Rugby World Cup starting in September, and the eyes of the world on Japan, it seems the ideal time to celebrate one of the world鈥檚 most distinct culinary cultures.

鈥淣o one who鈥檚 been to Japan will ever forget its food. I still vividly remember the first meal I ever had there 鈥� a steak, cooked in front of me teppanyaki-style on a hot metal plate by a silent chef. In our latest cover story, we鈥檝e tried to get to the heart of this memorable and unusual cuisine, from lesser-known dishes such as takoyaki and tonkatsu to global favourites sushi, tempura and ramen.鈥�

Also in this issue, we examine the rebirth of Ecuadorian chocolate, sample the best of the gourmet Greek island Sifnos and journey to Nabeul on the Tunisian coast for a colourful family meal. All this, plus guides to the food hotspots of San Francisco, Tel Aviv and the Camargue, France.

In addition, expect the usual mix of thought-provoking features and easy-to-follow recipes from world-renowned contributors.
