Oyakodon: Basic Recipe - (USA)
Oyakodon must count as one of the top 5 as far as poplular food comes in Japan. It is easy to prepare and improvise with. Bear in mind that depending upon the region you are in Japan, the ingredients are totally different. For example, in Hokkaido you will be served salmon sashimi and salmon roe! After all, “oyakodon” means “parent and child bowl” (ingredients!)! Being asked about a recipe, I decided to introduce the main lines of a basic one here made with chicken and eggs, not bothering ab

WANT A COOKIE??? - (USA)
You probably know I'm not the biggest expert in the kitchen. The only thing I can really make is pizza (using a cheese scone recipe as a base) and cookies. So when the urge to bake overtakes me (which admittedly is rare) I tend to stick to one of these two options. It gets a bit boring though. So when I saw Lacey's post about snickers cookies a few weeks ago, I wanted to try them out. The problem is, I don't actually LIKE snickers. But I figured I could experiment with a different chocolate b

Ten Real Life Diet Advices - (USA)
Are you tired of diet advices handed out by someone with apparently unlimited earnings and time? For some of us, it may just not be practical to spend half of our Sunday preparing carefully portioned meals for the rest of the week, or financially feasible to purchase all our meals prepackaged in just the appropriate portions. And there are those of us who cringe at the thought of weighing food to achieve ‘optimal portion sizes’. Here are ten real life diet tips for the rest of us. 1. Eating o

Rakabdar - (USA)
One of the side effects of the vacation was the discovery of a restaurant in (almost) our backyard. We saw a write up of Rakabdar in the Jet in-flight magazine, and as always checked it up on Burrp before deciding on it. Rakabdar is located exactly opposite Forum Mall on the Christ College/Dairy Circle side. That, I assume, also takes care of your parking queries. A ‘Rakabdar’ is a master chef of the royal courts of Awadh and Lucknow, so now you know what cuisine to expect here. They were co

The yumminess that is zpizza (giveaway) - (USA)
At our house, we try to have a pizza night once a week. Sometimes I make it from scratch, but more often than not we get takeout or delivery. It’s great getting a break from cooking, but even more fun trying out new places! Some of the best pizzas we’ve had in a long time was this past week, from zpizza . Founded in the art colony of Laguna Beach, zpizza was inspired by California and a healthy way of eating. Combining unique recipes with quality ingredients is what makes this pizza differen

Roasted Carob Cookies with Walnut Meal and Oat Flour - (USA)
Recipe Source: Some part of my head that still has some iota of creativity! This is my own recipe. And I go "whoo hoo." Do you believe in celebrating Mother's Day? Or do you think it is just another commercial gimmick for boosting sales of cards, flowers, chocolates and the likes? Acknowledging a mother on one day of the year seems a little absurd, but then why not? I am glad someone thought about it! It is a sad thing that we need to set just one day apart for a selfless soul, but if th

Swing'n Sunday Link Love - (USA)
Bleatings from EnviRambo. With Summer in full swing I am more apt to be outside with my nose in a book, chillaxin in the hammock, than inside with eyes peeled to the computer screen. It's not that I don't enjoy reading ya'll's blogs, but Summer is short-lived in Wisconsin. Come Winter, when the thermometer dips to 20 below, I will be wishing I spent more time in that hammock. So for what I lack in quantity, I hope to make up in quality for this week's l

Web Worker Rx: Take a Mental Health Day - (USA)
I don’t really like the phrase, “mental health day,” but the idea behind it is very important and relevant to every web worker. We all need time away from our work and businesses. Time to collect our thoughts, get some breathing room, and get away from the computer screen. It may not seem important, but taking time away from our work has just as big an impact on our productivity as putting in a full day. It’s not just about the quantity of hours we devote to our jobs, but the quality. How much

Lesson From History: The Gift of Having “Enough” - (USA)
by KimiHarris on August 5, 2009 Some of you know a little of my history. I’ve had to deal with some (minor) health issues, which pushed me the rest of the way into “health” food. While my own health issues have been minor (compared to cancer), they have affected my everyday life as one of them has been adrenal fatigue. When I first started going to a naturopath, I was so tired I had a hard time concentrating on anything, including even reading a book to my 9 month old daughter.I’ve gotten much

A Snacker’s Guide To Bangkok Street Food - (USA)
An Asian Sensation - Bangkok’s sidewalks are crowded with tasty options for pedestrians who need - or just can’t resist - a quick bite. And now imagine being guided through Bangkok’s sensational world of street food by a true connoisseur. Though I’ve toured markets in Mexico and roamed the streets of Hong Kong’s Central district, both of which are crowded with prepared-food vendors, I’ve never seen the sheer quantity and variety of what Bangkok offers. Already-narrow sidewalks in busines

Wah Yuen Noodle House - Richmond, BC - (USA)
Wah Yuen Noodle House 1035-3700 No. 3 Road Richmond, BC (604) 231 9080? The Pre-Game. That’s what I like to call my personal process in preparing my appetite for an upcoming trip abroad. It usually involves some reading (books, magazines, internet), some tinkering with my camera equipment (cleaning, lens maintenance/acquisition), browsing of grocery stores catering to natives of those lands here in Canada, and most importantly, local sampling of some cuisine I can expect to see on my travels.

Tips For First Time Grill Users - (USA)
Griddling, or Barbecuing is a real Yankee practice. Many Americans are finding themselves with a grill for the 1st time. Good experiences with your griddle will certainly lead to using your griddle more and more. Planning Ahead barbecuing has been around since early cavemen figured out that food tasted great after being cooked on an open fire. Perhaps one of the main memories attached to a family barbecue is what was on the menu that day. Barbecuing opens an entire array of types of f
