Your cuisine is all hype and no substance. You actually brag about fucking yakitori, literally just skewered grilled meat. Tempura is just deep fried batter. If you like that why don't you like southern US cuisine as well?
Most Chinese find Japanese cuisine dull and light. Without flavor. Makes sense as all decent Japanese food came from abroad, like tempura. In Heian period Japanese nobles would just eat plain rice with a few measly vegetable. Low culture.

That's fucking rich coming from curryland mate. What you were saying about yakitori and tempura is a heavily westernized view on Japanese cuisine. Japanese food has a HUGE emphasis on tasting the ingredients themselves rather than how it is prepared (for the most part).

Not memeing with the last one. They had a great approach to cuisine very early in their history. They have a theory and system of good cooking while most other national traditions are like culinary stamp collecting. I like the idea of mother sauces and other building blocks that you can vary and modify.
Of course, in addition to haute cuisine they have their regional styles that are delicious too. Actually, the best dishes are just well-made peasant food made with local seasonal ingredients.

Spaghetti Bolognese really is an "authentic" Italian dish, just because it is exceptionally popular no reason to bash it, when done right it's fantastic.
I find most dishes around the world very pleasant to eat and enjoyable but personally I just don't understand the popularity of SEA cuisines like Vietnamese and Thai in the Western world.
They taste, smell and look like colourfully painted garbage in my humble opinion.
South east Asian food restaurants in Japan are only visited by brainless instagramfags whose personal preferences and topics of conversations are solely controlled by anti-mainstream media propaganda, which ironically is making them look quite mass produced these days

>Japanese ramen
Pretty much one of the blandest Ramen I have ever had.
Long time asia traveller here, btw.
Chinese noodle-soup (the original Ramen) are the best. Fresh Hand-drawn or blade-cut noodles from Beijing or the Muslim-localities are god-tier with their spicy soup, so are the rice-noodles of South-Western China with their complex broth consisting of all the secret spices available in those spice-rich regions.
In comparisson, Japanese noodles are all basically no oil (oil/fats are flavour carriers FYI), only either salty or miso-tasting, with no complexity of flavor, and so-so noodles that have just an OK consistency. It is just a small island with limited cuisine, after all.
Pic:
Best noodles I've ever had in Beijing. Noodles are directly cut from the dough into boiling water and have an awesome consistency and texture that is carrying an insane amount of flavor.
Sorry for my pleb habit of sticking the chopsticks into the food. Laowai did not know better at that time.
>>58943059
Sorry to educate your baby brain, but most traditional Chinese noodles or la mian have evolved into countless variations of Ramen noodles with time in Japan, including your favorite Chinese noodles.
The particular noodles in your post is daoxiaomian originally from Shanxi prefecture China, essences of which of course has already been introduced and adopted in the Japanese ramen portfolio with a bit of modifications done by cooks coming from the region to Japan, most likely via Taiwan after WW2.
So there are red hot spicy ramens in Japan as well and also over there in China they too have street stands which serve noodles with watery clear soup that tastes simple and tender.
The complexity and sophistication of East Asian food cultures are probably something impossible to grasp the whole picture of for a short term backpacker coming from a country that is known to have neither food culture to talk about nor passion in eating/cooking

Similar story here.
A Georgian guy marinated some shashlik meat by stacking layers of meat in a bucket, sprinkling with large grain salt and red peppers, onions sliced thin and covered with some good wine. We let it sit for a night in a cellar and it was ebin.
That being said, it's pretty much the same as what we do here, only we don't use wine that much, rather vinegar and secret broth.
The open flame cooking is exactly the same.

Went to a Mexican restaurant a couple of weeks ago and saw a few more in town. When I was young there weren't any at all, so I guess they're getting more popular here. Includes burritos, tacos, fajitas, chimi changas, enchiladas, quesadillas, various chilli dishes, and stuff like that really. I think anything you'd class as Californian or Tex-Mex we'd just call Mexican, no need for us to make that distinction.

How is either of those things a lie?
When I went grocery shopping with my housemates (all non-veggies) they'd spend £20-£30 more than me each time, purely because they were buying meats, which are expensive. Also I know that it's perfectly possible to have healthy non-veggie diets, but most people are too tempted by burgers/hot dogs/kebabs/bacon and end up eating like shit. Veggie diets can be unhealthy if you don't replace your proteins and various vitamins, but if you take care of what you eat then it's pretty hard to have a non-healthy veggie diet.

I used to have protein shakes, but that was back when I was stuck in that hurr durr gotta get swole mindset, which I don't care about anymore. Now most of my protein comes from dairy (drink a fair bit of milk, and have eggs and/or cheese for lunch most days) or things like beans or lentils. It's not too difficult really, you just have to think about your meals more carefully. Then again, it's easier for me seeing as I've been doing it all my life. Don't think I've had any growth-related problems as I'm 6"1 and about as muscular as I want to be. Gave up weights last year, but still do 6 days in the gym each week doing calisthenics.

I don't really eat much meat though so it sort of makes sense to have a shake.
>>58953740
No it makes sense that post-exercise protein would aid recovery, protein is all about growth and repair after all. I didn't really make a calculated decision to stop it, I just stopped caring about getting my arms/chest big so I changed my workout plan and thought the protein was less necessary with the new one. One shake per day would probably still be beneficial for me though, I just can't be arsed to buy it.
