January 4, 201213 yr Ekkk...talk about a good case of culture shock. While i cant come on here and talk about how horrible it easy eating dog considering we consume beef and India finds them sacred. I just cant come to grips knowing that poor Fido just might be the other white meat on my next dinner.....just It may be a cultural issue but not only ... these animals are treated very badly ... and usually the carnivorous animal, eats the herbivore... do not eat other carnivorous is the food chain (my englih is badddd)
January 4, 201213 yr In NY? It's cool There are Japanese grocery stores in New York City. There is also 'Mitsuwa' right outside of it. It's the largest Japanese shopping center in the United States.... so it's micro Japan to me. Lurve it, and lurve the food! http://www.mitsuwa.com/tenant/eindex.html
January 4, 201213 yr ^ Oh haha cool, funny u mentioned the Mitsuwa Marketplace. I actually have been to the one in San Diego before, love that place here as well.
January 5, 201213 yr ^ Are there a lot of Japanese stores in Hong Kong? ^ Oh haha cool, funny u mentioned the Mitsuwa Marketplace. I actually have been to the one in San Diego before, love that place here as well. Interesting, I never knew that it was a franchise. There are many in California!
January 5, 201213 yr Another reason to love Cali that much more There are only two on the East coast- that one and one in Chicago. There is a small professional Japanese community that work in New York City but they're vastly outnumbered by South Koreans and the Chinese. I can see how California would have many more locations :=D

Love that place too, still no substitute for the real thing but the food always makes me forget that

Sogo, citysuper, Mikiki, etc.
January 7, 201213 yr I have a newfound liking of freshly made Soba (buckwheat noodles). The quality of the noodle is first rate and as a quick, simple dish it's superior to other freshly made noodles. Buckwheat noodles are high in protein, composed of complex carbs, & are much lower in calories than conventional white noodles. So they're unusually filling due to the high protein/complex carb content. Soba has a faint nutty taste and the noodles are springy.. I keep them in my freezer and preparing them is a 3 minute job..pour boiling water out of water heater, mix with soup base, boil until bubbling, drop soba in, 1 minute...done.! And if you want to, you can prepare it with eggs, meat, vegetables, and whatever you want The fresh soba is to the right. It is much superior to the dried version.
January 8, 201213 yr I just made French toast myself for breakfast and am full now Picture's not mine
January 8, 201213 yr ^ LOL i was going to make french toast today but there was no syrup.....major bummer.
