Today, I Went To The Grocery Store, And I Got Way Too Curious With The Food...

Hey Guys, Me And My Grandma And My Sister Went To The Grocery Store, Basically We Got Stuff For Our Miso Soup And Some Nuts For Tonight's Dinner Today In The Afternoon, And I Got Way Too Curious With The Food, Today, I was a little too interested in the cucumbers before my sister pulled away from it... 


Anyways, This Grocery Shopping In Japan Was Way Too Weird... But It Was Great Getting Stuff For Our Dinner We Had Today! - S.T

#9 - Miso Soup and Ginkgo, A Dinner Favorite For Today!

 Hey Guys, Today's Food Review Is Set For A Great Dinner! The Time In Japan Is Now 8:00 PM! (We Had Dinner At 7:00 PM) And Me, My Grandma And My Sister Had A Good Dinner! 


Anyways, Today's Dinner Menu Was Miso Soup and Ginkgo, So Let's Dive Into The World Of Tonight's Dinner!


Miso Soup - The Main Course Of Today's Dinner



For The Main Course, It's Miso Soup, With Noodles! The Miso Broth Was Warm And The Noodles Were Well-Cooked, It Was All Thanks To My Grandmother Who Provided Me With The Cooking, But At Least She Added The Noodles And Nothing Else!

Ginkgo - The Side Dish For Tonight's Dinner






So, "Ginkgo" Is A Type Of Nut, You Can Put It In The Microwave To Keep Them Warm, And Open Them With A Type Of Kitchen Sisscors, And Eat The Insides... I Never Knew That These Types Of Nuts Were Edible On The Inside, But Their Shells Are Not Edible, And Heatable Nuts? I Haven't Discovered Them Until Now!

Anyways, Some Good Soup With Noodles And Warm Broth, And Ginkgo Nuts As A Side Dish After We Eat, These Were The Things That We Had For Tonight's Dinner, It Was Great And Tasted Well-Good! 

Anyways, See You In Food Diary Entry #10! Bye! - S.T

#8 - Rice Curry, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Grapes and Mechi Katsu

 Hello~! Today's Food Diary Is Rice Curry, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Grapes and Mechi Katsu! I Hope You Enjoy This Food Diary For Today!


Rice Curry - Curry Or Rice, Why Not Both!








Today For Lunch, Me And My Grandma Made Curry With Rice, It's Rice And Curry Combined Into One Dish, You Cook The Rice, And Add Curry Seasoning, It's A Great Recipe! My Grandma And I Love It, So Good, And My Friend And Sister Even Tried It, Mmm! So Tasty!

Roasted Sweet Potatoes - Potatoes That Are Sweet And Roasted, All In One!




MMM!!! THIS SWEET POTATO IS SO GOOD!!! And I Learned How To Cook Sweet Potatoes Today, Really Great, And It's Roasted Sweetness On The Inside, Was Really Cool And Tasty, And The Texture Was Sweet, So That's What A Sweet Potato Inside Tastes Like!

Grapes - A Type Of Berry Fruit!




Oh, Did I Discover Some New Type Of Berry Today? Well, They Are Grapes, And They Are Like Round Fruits, And They Are Small! And The Taste Of It Is So Juicy And Soft! And I Like It! I Was Kinda Expecting Some Kind Of New Fruit, But It's Actually Grapes!

Mechi Katsu - A Strange Type Of Japanese Cuisine! 


What Is Menchi Kasu? Well, According To My Reasearch, "Menchi katsu (メンチカツ) is a Japanese breaded and deep-fried ground meat patty — essentially a deep-fried hamburger cutlet with a crispy, golden crust The name comes from menchi (minced) and katsu (cutlet), reflecting its minced meat and cutlet form"

So It's A Deep Fried Meat Patty, Pretty Great Right, Also, It's The First Deep Fried Meat I Ever Had In Japan!

Anyways, My Final Thoughts On These Foods Are The Sweet Combination Of Rice Curry, The Fullness Of Roasted Sweet Potatoes, The Sweet And Juicy Grapes, and the foreign deep fried food of Japan, Mechi Kasu!

Anyways, This Wonderful And Sweet Food Review Has Ended, Anyways, Hope To See You In Another One Of My Food Diaries! Bye! - R.T

Oh, See? That What I Learned How The Cheesecake Got It's Name!

Plain Hot Water - Water But Make It Heated!


Hey Guys, This Plan Hot Water Was Quite Warm, And Hot, This Water Creates A Brand New Flavor When Heated, And It's Warmth Kept Me Cool, It's Nice To Discover Water As A New Cooling Technique!

Cup Noodles - Soup In A Cup, Whatever You Like It!




Well, I Just Invited To A Friend's House For Dinner, In Japan, Dinner Is Customary, And I Love It, For Tonight's Dinner, We Had Cup Noodles, My New Friend Had The Meat Kind, While I Had The Seafood Kind!

When My Reaction Was Before Eating The Seafood Cup Noodles, Was Like A Wonderous Taste In My Mouth, It Tastes Just Like The Sea, Even When It's Cooked! 


My Final Thoughts:

With The Sight Of The Ice That Belongs In The Shaved Ice, And The Sweetness Of The Cheesecake's Sweet Texture, The Warmth Of The Plain Hot Water, And The Mixture Of The Flavors Of The Cup Noodles, It's Just Like Food Combined All Together Into One Dream!
