Japanese cuisine is known for its emphasis on fresh, seasonal ingredients and its aesthetic presentation.
The 16th century saw the rise of Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, who were instrumental in unifying Japan under a centralized government.
Yakiniku, a dish made with grilled meat and vegetables, is a popular Japanese dish that is often served in restaurants where diners cook the meat themselves at the table.
