Pesce and Veggie Diaries: Day 19

Lunch/Dinner

The combined meals were due to some scheduling conflicts. It was too late to have lunch and too early for dinner, so a fusion of both just made sense. We went to a popular shabu-shabu place called Onyasai. Not only do they have a vegetarian menu, they also served high quality vegetables. The soup bases you see below resembling a yinyang were spicy and soy-milk. It was really satisfying. We ordered 7 varieties of mushrooms, my favourite of which was the maitake, but all were very good.

Pesce and Veggie Diaries: Day 18

Breakfast

There were lots of leftover ingredients from previous meals so Chef decided to make an amalgamation of everything, and this is what came out of that experiment.

Pesce and Veggie Diaries: Day 17

Breakfast

I love bitter gourd because of its taste, and that includes and most specially its bitterness. So I usually don’t like it when somebody tries to do something that impacts this aspect of the vegetable. Unfortunately, chef added honey to this sautéed dish which made it a little bit sweet.

A Little Bit Of Everything

Shame! Shame! Shame!

I’ve had people say they’re disappointed of me in jest because I listen, and actually like, country music. But I just like music in general, no matter what the genre, as long as it appeals to any of my senses, not just the ears. But with country music, I believe what appeals to me the most are the intricate stories woven into the whole song. This is also, I believe, why newly ordinated saint Taylor Swift’s album 1989 was, is, such a huge success. She fused that one great element of country, with pop, to appeal to a broader audience.

I’m not ashamed to admit it, but it was Carrie Underwood who introduced me to country music, with her rendition and collaboration with the band Rascal Flatts on their song “Bless the Broken Road”. That song is just positive, uplifting and inspirational in general.

Pesce and Veggie Diaries: Day 16

It’s almost the weekend! It’s going to be a sunny one at that so I’d probably be doing something interesting, hopefully, again.

Breakfast

Adding some sort of jam to our cereals is really a smart way to freshen up cereals. I wish we’d have thought of this sooner.

Pesce and Veggie Diaries: Day 15

Going on third week of being a vegetarian and I think I need to do something about why I have been feeling tired a lot lately. Maybe I need to take vitamin or protein supplements. Anyway, on to today’s dish.

Breakfast

This napolitan spaghetti reminds me of the one we had back home. It’s a little bit on the sweet side for my liking, but the saltiness of the egg certainly balances the entire dish.
