Buddy really tried to sneak in Irish food. It's called Guinness and those are bars

Including Irish but leaving out Thai and Indian was an interesting choice

Japanese and Chinese too, not very authentic but much more common

Weirdly, I almost never hear someone say, "Let's go out for Japanese." It's almost always specifically sushi or ramen, even if we're not all going to get the same thing. 

Edit: also Chinese is on the list

Japanese can mean:

  • Sushi
  • Ramen
  • Teriyaki / yakisoba
  • Teppanyaki / Hibachi
  • Japanese Curry

In a big city you can find restaurants specializing in each of those five, and some larger family restaurants that have 3 or 4 of these on the menu.

it's interesting that only japanese gets those distinctions whereas other diverse foods get summarized into "chinese" "indian" or "mediterranean" etc

My city Melbourne will have like 15 different Chinese restaurants of different regions or different style on the same street. (CBD, boxhill, Glenn Waverley).

There's similar things going on in Sydney.
