Main Symposium Lunch

Waseda is recognized as a dynamic student town, offering a wide variety of restaurants that accommodate diverse culinary preferences, including:

  • The Okuma Garden House Cafeteria (next to the Autidorium, for 300 persons offering Japanese, American, Chinese, European, and Indian Style food with Vegetarian and Halal food)
  • A vast number of restaurants, including Italian, French, Chinese, Korean, Indian (offering Vegetarian food also), Japanese (including Ramen, Sushi, Yakitori, Pork Cutlets, Tempura, Soba and Udon Noodles (including "Marugame," a popular restaurant in the Silicon Valley), McDonald's Hamburger, Subway Sandwiches. Please refer to 1) the Waseda Gourmet Map, and 2) Tripadivosor.

All restaurants offer competitive, good food for less than USD 10.00, including tax. In Japan, we need no tip. Please pay in cash. Since several of these do not accept credit cards, a good idea is to bring a few 1,000 Japanese yen bills every time. Nevertheless, major chain restaurants like McDonald's and Subway accept credit cards.
The ISCA'25 Reception on Sunday, June 22, just after the ISCA'25 Special event, will be fully catered.

Workshop and Tutorial Lunch on Saturday and Sunday

ISCA'25 will provide lunch boxes to fit dietary preferences, at the Research Innovation Center B1 (for about 120 persons) and the Green Computing Center 1F (for about 180 persons).
