Food

[benlehman]

One of the goals I've set for myself over the last few months is to cook and taste new dishes. So far, I've done a lot of poking around with meat, as it is a pretty new thing for me, although I also tried the infamous natto, which I found odd and slightly off-tasting, but not so bad.

Tonight, I tried pasta carbonara. Oh, man that was good stuff. If I go and stay with you, ask me to make it.

Yeah, the traditional pasta for it is spaghetti, which is less moppy.

Mm. Carbonara.

I'm sure there's good natto in existence. I'm also convinced that every Japanese restaurant I've ever been to stocks the stuff that's most likely to make the gaijin make icky-faces, just so they can watch.

I'm sorry I missed Orie's natto, though I don't know if I'd have been brave enough for it. That bleu cheese sauce you made kicked ass, though.
