Is That Her Cooking?!

so many of you know i am not very fond of cooking. if there was a list of chores, cooking would be last. yes, i would rather clean the toilet, wash the dishes, do laundry. i would rather make myself sweaty and gross cleaning, wiping, mopping, vacuuming the house.

there is one thing i always appreciate about japan. that is, japan makes me naturally health conscious. the easy access to fresh fruits and vegetables at cheap prices, the small aesthetically beautiful dishes in restaurants, abundant seafood fresh off the boat, clean water, fresh air, litter-free city, nature walk paths (though not so much in tokyo), stylishly dressed people roaming around the streets... all of these become detox factors for me when im here. and naturally i am motivated to cook for myself, eat all three meals properly everyday and take in all the necessary nutrients to maintain good skin, healthy mind and disease-free body (i sound like an aging person).

fermented beans with sour plum (left): my go-to food for healthy skin!

spare ribs with LOTS of veggies

this is obviously for my brother, not me...

with veggie makes anything edible

yeah, not much variation in dishwares...

 japan likes to incorporate a lot of european feel even in the midst of a bustling city
