First Post

Well, it has been a long time coming, but it is time to finally get this thing up and running. I suppose discipline will be what finally gets this off the ground but I am confident I can make it work.

I love good food, all aspects of it.

What I also love is good food that is healthy. Even more than that, good food which is healthy, and reasonably priced.

Organic ingredients, locally grown, all of that is great too. Of course, it is not always possible to find all of that in one package... actually, it is not common at all.  One can't think about health all the time...

Anyways, this blog will be a platform where I can try to talk about food, as I see it.

I hope to share information on ingredients, restaurants, drinks, recipes, photos... and just speak my thoughts in general.

Please join my in discussing food and don't hesitate to comment!



(I thought that I should include a picture for my first post so picked up one that I had lying around on my hard drive-  these are mini-pizzas that I made with proscuitto, cherry tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella and portabella mushrooms!)

Omotesando Koffee- a hidden coffee 'bar'

A little while ago, a friend of mine brought me to this interesting coffee shop tucked away in the backstreets of the trendy Omotesando shopping area. Apparently, it was recommended to her by her hairdresser. http://ooo-koffee.com/menu/ http://ooo-koffee.com/about/ As you may garner from the interesting and somewhat minimalist website design, it is kind of a unique spot and you can tell that a lot of effort as been put into designing the details. The place itself is not a traditional coffee shop. One might call it a coffee bar, but then there is the fact that it seems to be in someone's living room.  And that living room is a Japanese-style tatami mat room, complete with a counter equipped with an espresso machine. As a result, there is no real place to sit- there are a couple of stools outside in the garden but a lot of customers drink standing or do take out orders. This is what it looks like: I wish my living room had one of these. And this is what the coffee lo...

Laterblog: Sushi in Ueno

Here's another pic that is a late upload that I should have published way back when! This was eaten here:  http://www.sushitsune.co.jp/ Located conveniently in Ueno Station, it is a perfect place for a quick bite. It's been a while since I have been there but definitely would go back if I am in the area again!

Sushi Mizutani (鮨水谷)

I went to Sushi Mizutani with a friend of mine last month (this post has been a long time coming). It was my first ever 3 Michelin star experience, and as it is rated as one of the best restaurants in the world (and perhaps the 2nd best Sushi place), I arrived at the restaurant full of anticipation for the meal to come. The short story is, it was the best Sushi I have ever had... for the long....long... story, read on.  I'll warn you now, it is a pretty long post.
