Answer 1

Zaru-soba is cold buckwheat noodle (soba) served on a bamboo plate (zaru). It's served with dipping soup (mentsuyu) and some toppings. Add toppings in the dipping soup and dip a small amount of soba noodles in the soup to eat. Packages of dried soba noodles are availabe at Asian grocery stores. There are different kinds of soba noodles, depending on the amount of the buckwheat in the noodles. Usually, soba noodles are darker than somen noodles.

Answer 2

There are so many choices! Since you like fried foods, try TEMPURA. It'll be a smooth transition from the sushi you are used to. Try this link for an easy recipe: http://japanesefood.about.com/od/tempura...

Yakisoba is really really yummy.

Answer 5

Ok this is easy and delicious if you have a picky palate.  Buy some rice noodles, they are very thin and look like spaghetti just thinner, steam the rice noodles and toss them with peas, scallions, and grill or fry boneles, skinless, chicken tenders that are already cut in long strips from the supermarket.  Add a couple table spoons of sesame oil and a couple teaspoons of vegetable oil .....and of course salt to taste.  Toss it again and you have a delicious satisfying meal.    

Answer 6

Be sure to start the meal with miso soup.  It is extremely easy to make and is a traditional way to start a Japanese meal.

Fried foods you are going to want to serve tempura vegetables and shrimp.

For a dessert you can do something simple like green tea ice cream.
