This was the title given to a Facebook series of international restaurants in Tokyo metropolis and whilst the likes of Pakistan, Tunisia, Myanmar, Lebanon, Cameroon and Yemen have had their own entries there are many more places which I have visited in the latter part of 2012.

I am far from a restaurant critic but the ‘Dining Out‘ features on this site were basically just designed as an excuse to talk about some other vaguely related activity like news, football, travel, films or television. Here, in two parts, is the best cuisine from the Asian continent (including the Middle-East) featuring the name of the dish where known!
