Here's lunch. The tomatoes were pickled in a sweet vinegar.

I've got lychee sorbet for dessert.
I really want to try Japanese A5 Wagyu, I've heard it just melts in the mouth.

I had a $300 kobe beef steak at Park Hyatt Tokyo and it was so good I had it twice, in 2 consecutive nights. It was prepared like an american steak so it wasn't your typical yakiniku slices you would normally get in Japan.
My favorite thing it the world is eating well, so I have devoted a lot of time and effort teaching myself how to cook and I do a mean job at it, toot toot.
I prefer homecooking and simple recipes with top quality ingredients to elaborate/pretentious recipes.
For anyone wanting to try what a perfectly balanced salad dressing tastes like here is my winter salad dressing, its so easy and simple anyone can make it and you should be able to find every ingredient at the supermarket.
- 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp sherry vinegar
- 1 tsp light soy sauce (the one with the green cap, make sure you are using japanese soy sauce instead of chinese, Yamasa is my go-to)
- 1 tsp fine salt
- Pepper to taste
This dressing goes really well with any type of normal salad, I have never tried it on a Caesar's salad or something like that because I don't think this dressing would compliment chicken very well. It does go great with seafood, though. I put it on a simple daily salad (tomato, onion, lettuce, avocado), and also on fancy salads I have on occasion (octopus, parsley, tomato), it works really well on salads with salmon, or shrimp as well.
Here's another quick & dirty recipe.
Get the best cucumbers you can get. Peel them. Cube them. Mix 1 Tbsp sugar with 1 tsp salt. Season your cucumber and let it rest for 10 min. Once rested, strain them, put them in a little bowl and top it off with miso paste (better with dashi). Eat that. It's amazing and like 0 calories. Not that I care or count calories
