Katakana
Most of the Katakana words I found are used
to describe food, which I think are pretty interesting and useful. Most of the
words are borrowed from English.
コーラ Cola
パン Bread
ケーキ Cake
カレー（ライス） Curry (with rice)
チーズ Cheese
リンゴ Apple
イチゴ Strawberry
チョコレート Chocolate
アイスクリーム Icecream
パスタ Pasta
ピザ Pizza
サンドイッチ Sandwich
ハンバーガー Hamburger
スープ Soup
サラダ Salad
ヨーグルト Yogurt
プリン Pudding
レストラン Restaurant
チャーハン Fired rice
I've found an interesting katakana guide. Hope it helps.

Japanese Tea Ceremony
As a tea person, I’ve always been interested in things related to tea. I would really like to know more about the sophisticated and rigid Japanese tea ceremony. I’m surprised by how many different tea ceremony schools there are and how many tools are involved in this process. According to the Wikipedia, there are two matcha for tea ceremony: thick and thin. If possible, I would like to learn how to perform the tea ceremony, or at least try it once.
The following two pictures are tea equipment: chatin (small rectangular white linen or hemp cloth mainly used to wipe the tea bowl), tea bowl, tea caddy, tea scoop, and tea whisk.
This is the view from a tea house in Kyoto.
And this is a traditional tea room.
