Monja doesn't fit the criteria 100% because it looks all but taste OK at best. Seriously looks like sizzling vomit and I hate the way you're supposed to eat it with that stupid ass spatula. All that for mediocre taste. Monja is my least favourite Japanese food.
Least favorite? You must really like those fermented squid guts
It looks like dead gagh. Gagh isn't supposed to be dead.
What in the...?
Haha, shiokara is one of my go to counter examples also for when people claim Japanese food is bland. I tend to eat just about everything and actually like that stuff, along with things like shirako, horumon, and kusaya (and natto).
Still, I'm glad the inaka has a lot more foreign options these days. When I first moved to Japan even stuff like Indian curry was rare. It's a good thing Japanese food is really tasty, because having that be the only thing to eat on top of it being terrible would've been a really difficult time.
