It was only a short visit to Korea, but this time I ended up going to a lot of Western restaurants. What I actually crave in Korea is Korean food, but when it comes to a proper, formal get-together, there̵…

The place I live now really is nothing special, and I’m not just being modest, but it is famous across Japan for two things: hot springs and crab. Last weekend a friend from Korea came over for a hot spr…
It’s winter, so I keep craving nabe. A friend came to visit for the first time in a while, so we went to Tenkomori, a chanko nabe place near my home that’s a bit hard to get a reservation at. Otosh…
