Anything on a menu that ends in -don will be a bowl of rice with meat or cooked fish on it. Katsudon is pork. Oyakodon is chicken, egg and onions and it's really yummy. OTOH, I just remembered that you don't like Korean food, so what do I know -- it may be yummy to me in the same way that is. I've forgotten the name for the eel one, which is nice if you like eel. I know they serve these in Japan and not just in Azuma because a friend who had been to grad school in Japan said so. Udon is noodles.
cris has recently been to Japan and talks about food and travel in unlocked posts that you might want to look at. He's Canadian, but his family are originally from the Philipines and he had a little trouble with people looking at him superficially and acting as if he ought to speak Japanese. I don't know if you'd have this problem, but be prepared.
