Ramen

Simple Ramen for 518 Yen ... That is about $4.60 (Tax included) and there is not tipping.
Good value compared to $12 ramen in Seattle.

Have you ever had Vietnamese's Sandwich before?
Vietnam was occupied by French for a long time before the Vietnamese War. So, they have a quite bit of French influence. Many of you know about Pho, the rice noodle soup dish, but not many know how good their sandwiches are.

Japanese Fast Food???

I wonder how much they would cost in Seattle?
I think they would cost at least twice as much and on top of that you have to ay sales tax and tip. With the weaker yen, they seem even more reasonable.

Takoyaki

Sep

I had Takoyaki yesterday. If you don't know what it is, check out the Wikipedia I listed. It was very hot and good. If you never had it, you should try. You can also buy frozen Takoyaki at Japanese supermarkets in the US. Make sure you buy one that is round not a bell shape one.

Jimmy John's Day Old Bread

Sep

Have you ever purchased Jimmy John's a day old bread? They are $.50 each and they are good. I buy two or three every time I buy a sandwich there.

I don't go to subway much anymore. I like JJ's bread.

Dinner at Anthony's Home Port Restaurant

Aug

Yes, I had a steak at Seafood Restaurant.
Sorry … I like seafood but I really think restaurants here do not know how to prepare seafood properly. I eat seafood a lot at Japanese restaurants but not in American restaurants with exception of Fish and Chips.

I cooked dinner tonight. I had a half price steak from Safeway and I cooked. Combined with the left over salad, they made a wonderful low-carb dinner that tasted great.
