I would presume so (never been to Japan), but if I had the option, I would always (regardless of destination/origin) choose the Japanese (Lunch/Dinner), over the heavy, gravy "traditional"-style food (not bad, don't misunderstand) you are served in C - simply because it is lighter. I've tried some of the other special meals (vegetarian, vegan) and the only one I liked were the indian vegetarian - because it is spicy. Many of the others (especially gluten-free) I thought were very bland and quite tasteless.
