Compare eel the way each region cooks it
Unagi, freshwater eel brushed with a sweet soy glaze and grilled, is cooked differently from region to region: split from the back or from the belly, steamed before grilling or not. Try the local version wherever your trip takes you, from crisp Osaka eel to Nagoya's hitsumabushi, eaten three ways from one wooden tub. Many of these restaurants are popular and some close when the eel sells out, so go early.
Do
Take tea inside a century-old storehouse
A kura is a traditional storehouse with thick earthen walls, built to keep rice, sake or family treasures safe from fire. Some old kura around Japan now hold cafes, where the heavy walls shut out the noise and you sit with tea and a homemade sweet in a hushed room. They are scattered across the country, so pick the one nearest the place you are already visiting.
Do
Sip a drink among palms in a greenhouse cafe
A few botanical parks in Japan have a cafe inside their big greenhouse, where you sit among palms and huge tropical leaves with a drink in hand. Walk through the greenhouse first, then rest and watch the plants from your seat. It stays warm and dry inside whatever the weather, which makes it a good stop on a cold or rainy day.
