PS: we're having a really hard time deciding where to stay in Tokyo, Kyoto, on Mount Koya, and possibly in Hakone, Nara, Magome and Hiroshima so are grateful for any recommendations. Links to this post. The is m...

Everything I Ate - Japan. Eat real food. Not too much. Mostly plants. (Michael Pollan). Saturday, December 5, 2009. The best green tea ever, in the room. Made with these fantastic tea bags (looks like gyokuro if you ask me). The buffet downstairs in the breakfast room - an embarrassment of riches. The weird looking green things with the mushy brown sauce on the angular plate in the middle are actually sweet green mochi with a sweet (red bean? So we would find our way back to our table from the buffet?

Everything I Ate - Japan. Eat real food. Not too much. Mostly plants. (Michael Pollan). Saturday, January 31, 2009. Things I've never tried before 2. Korean olive leaf tea (made from olive leaves harvested in Australia). It's a little on the bitter side so I can understand why most people won't enjoy it, but I for one don't like sweet or sweetened teas, so this is perfect. Plus it's supposed to have a bunch of health benefits, natural antibiotic properties etc - a total keeper! Links to this post. Today'...

Everything I Ate - Japan. Eat real food. Not too much. Mostly plants. (Michael Pollan). Sunday, May 31, 2009. While we were both home sick and recovering, we spent a lot of time preparing our all-round favorite food - soup, in all shapes and forms:. Ritesh's first home made chicken soup, entirely made from scratch, hours of work, but the best broth ever. The de-boned chicken and veggies that were boiled in the broth. Links to this post. In the Seattle. I made Ritesh bring some home when he was up the...
