A bowl of tendon, sauce-coated shrimp and vegetable tempura over rice, sits on a polished red-brown wooden table in Tokyo. Two whole shrimp with their tails up rise from the pile, with a green pepper laid across the top. A small dish of shredded cabbage with yellow and pink pickles stands to the left, beside an empty bowl with a blue patterned rim. Disposable chopsticks rest behind the bowl, and a light wooden lattice screen closes off the back of the table. Warm light falls on the glossy surface of the table.
