Wishing I was in Okinawa!
Thursday, January, 29, 2015
Hello, this is Anand with another update! I hope that you all enjoying your days off. I am still managing to make the most of mine in the new year. And I am trying to find creative ways to eat healthily and still enjoy myself. A lot of the problems with “eating healthy” is that people believe that it means we have to eat salads all day, or stick to things we don’t want to eat. In fact, I have been one of these people for a long time. However, I am slowly learning that lots of cultures feature healthy and delicious dishes if you know where to look. One of those places is Okinawa where they eat lots of pork and gohyaa. Despite also drinking some of the harshest liquor I know of (awamori), Okinawans are remarkably hardy and the longest-living people in the world. With that in mind, I have been trying Okinawan restaurants in the Tokyo area. They almost always feature my favorite dish, gohyaa-chanpluu, which I try to make whenever I have the time. I went to a particularly delicious restaurant call “Ichi” in Shinjuku this weekend which I think you should all try out. In short, just because something tastes good doesn’t mean it doesn’t have to be bad for you! Try and combine enjoyment and health and you might just go places!
That’s all for this week,
Anand
