DIY-Japanese

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

i was watching japan hour
amused on how a petite smooth skin lady
gleefully looking at the giant octopus
all ten tentacles very much alive

she could devour the entire sea population
and still look graceful on screen

so i had to make my way to the supermarket
at ten pm to buy myself

a slab of raw salmon
a tube of wasabe
a bottle of light soy sauce
a pack of seaweed

pan seared for crispy skin
half a cucumber thinly sliced

all i need for a low profile saturday night.

We’ve all seen/heard/read/purchased/queued/criticized/tradedsoul for that ‘i’m-not-a-plastic-bag’ bag, now here’s the sequel to the former over-publicized affair.

This time, I dare say I WANT ONE.

Dine On Design

dineondesign

Potentially the most brilliant design (/fusion/food/art/omgican’tbelievei’mnotthere) project of the season. I’m not sure who are the creative geniuses behind it but it was held at Monkey Town — which started out as a seasonal dining and performance art space.

I might have missed out on that certain table reservation many are dead envious about but ferran adria is not likely to retire anytime soon. Not being in New York however for this one kicks me hard on the arse.

Read that they are staging it again, this time on my homeground - Singapore.

Again, I wouldn’t be around for it.
Come to London guys, this way please!!
