@Lorraine: Thanks Lorraine. I thought the building looked neat - and I still wonder about the inside (we don't eat beef)!

@Jen: Thank you! I hope the food is good there, it would be such a disappointment to go somewhere like this only to discover that all the "taste" is the building!

It sure beats the look of steaks shacks around here.

@Michael Rawluk: It is different. I didn't realize what it was until I looked closer!

It's interesting to me that many of your Okinawa photos seem to reflect a significant US influence as opposed to other images I see on here from Japan.

@Twelvebit: You are so correct. The US occupied this island until the 1970s, and the US influence is so strong. Having lived in mainland Japan a long time ago I was surprised by how little the culture here seemed to be related to that of Japan. There is a surprisingly Chinese feel to the old architecture on the island.
