While our new poster here seems to have a pretty damn negative overtone, I have heard small instances where things like this happen, but usually only with food. Japanese people know that Americans typically don't know much about Japanese food besides sushi, and since our palettes tend to be different, they might be nervous about serving you something like ikuradon, so they play it safe and give you something they know you've had before. I actually think this isn't a bad idea in the very beginning, and then form there, they can determine what kind of Japanese foods you might like. But I sincerely doubt someone is gonna get pizza every night. Not only is that lame, but it's unhealthy, and EXPENSIVE. Japanese Dominos pizza with pepperoni will cost you about $20.
