Smallest Yolk

image

So… was eating my chilled Neung Myun midst of this hot Jersey summer. I always save the best for last, and hence why I eat my eggs as the finale. I cut it in half… what do I see? The smallest yolk I’ve ever seen in an egg. Weird…

iPhone 4 TV Ads are So Freakin’ Cheesy and Annoying

Many things annoy me. Old ladies driving with their turn light blinking and not turning, where there is no toilet cover sheet in the public bathroom, when a guy balder than me tell that I am bald, and much more.

However, nothing annoys me more than the recent iPhone 4 TV ads. Have you seen them? The one where the dad is trying get a smile from her daughter? The one where a girlfriend shows her new short haircut? The one where… well, there are two of them… but the one where they tell their significant one about their newborn baby? This is all good and very nice. These are even likely scenarios how the video chatting can be used. However, it annoys me how Apple is using these scenes to stir up emotions for marketing purposes to sell iPhone 4. First of all, these are very sacred moments that should be shared in person, and not over video chatting. Secondly, the ads are SOOOOOO cheesy. OMG, how much more cheesier can it get. Third, I like my HTC EVO 4. Yes, I am biased. So what? This is my blog, and I would be surprised if you are reading this.

Anywho. I can’t stand it. I just can’t! oh, btw, watched Despicable Me. Very cute.

Road to Perfect Curry Rice

image

Curry rice is loved by everyone in the world. As a child I loved it for the taste and sense of family gathering it brings. So! I decided to conjure up the ultimate curry rice! Something unique… something simply delicious and people will talk about. And, here’s the first of the many curries to come on the path of excellence.

What worked:
1) used KABOCHA instead of potatoes. Same texture but healthier and adds sweetness to curry.
2) added DARK CHOCOLATE. Added a distinctive “depth” and aroma.

What DIDN’T work:
1) used HOUSE VERMONT CURRY. A famous brand in Japan for the addition of Apple and honey. However, felt like it was too mild for the thick, deep, flavorful curry I was looking for.

Not too bad for a first trial. More to come but its slowly but surely moving forward. To be continued.

Hiatus and Update

Hello! Sorry for the long hiatus without any explanation. I’m nearing graduation from the periodontics residency, and I’ve been distracted with school work. I will be graduating in June and work immediately after that. I anticipate to reopen American Otaku comics some time near that time. Thanks for your understanding, and being a fan of Ametaku :) good day!
