Lunch in Tailing Chan

Oops! The floating market was closed, but that didn’t stop us from finding an amazing lunch of spicy noodle soup!

Japan the Gastric Paradise

The title says it all, Japan is a food paradise. It’s home to some of the freshest fish and tastiest seafood I’ve ever had. The Japanese strive for perfection in their dining. It’s not uncommon to find a restaurant in Japan that serves only a single dish. Barbecued eel, gyoza, soba, tea, sushi, the list is nearly endless. When striving for the perfect meal they consider everything, I mean everything, the metal that is used to make the knife that cuts the ingredients, the shape of tea pot, the type of coal the meat is grilled over, not to mention the freshness and quality of the ingredients. It’s apparent the moment you walk into a market or past a produce vendor, these veggies are gorgeous, seasonal, and as close to perfect as you will ever see. The beef is exceptionally marbled, the eggs have deep orange yolks, the grapes are enormous, plump, and sweet. These ingredients in the hands of a caring Japanese chef made for some of the most exceptional meals of my life. Rather then continue to gush about the food i’ll cut to the chase and show you the photos.

I’d like to introduce you to the worlds greatest store bought milk.
