Good eats in Alaska
Just noticed that The Double Muskie in Girdwood was awarded best steak, specifically the Pepper Steak, in the USA! Excellent Alaskanized Cajun and Steaks since 1962! Also the Old Fashioned donuts ...

Steak or sea food - simon & Seaforts - prime rib is great. For a great view of town and excellent food - Crowsnest atop the Capt Cook Hotel . . .
Japan Airlines does about 65 crew changes a week in Anchorage, of their over the pole flights, from Europe to Asia and visa versa. Most of these crew members live in Anchorage with their families. The airlines even runs a school, in Japanese, for the crew members children.
Those Japanese crews and Japanese tourists have been coming to Alaska for a long time too. Imagine my surprise when, in the early '70's, I went to the restroom in a very remote lodge on the Denali Highway and saw "Men" on the door in only two languages--English and Japanese!
