Those were just part of photos taken from my typical practice for portraiture.
And yup, I've still got a lot to learn.

By the way, on Monday I decided to make some 親子丼 (oyakodon) for lunch! Before that, I went to Yamakawa Super to look for めんつゆ mentsuyu and そうめん soumen. However, it didn't sell めんつゆ but つゆ tsuyu instead. So i got that one and it turned out fine for the dish. よかった!

親 oya stands for parent (in this case is the chicken), 子 ko stands for child (the egg) and 丼 don is the rice.
A typical 親子丼 looks like this:

おいしそう! :9

It's really easy to cook! I'm still a beginner at cooking and for someone like me to say it; trust me it's easy ^.^ I think the only difficult part is like getting the ingredients? I learned how to make 親子丼 from this YouTube video:


Skip to 0:30 if you want to watch just the main part.
One of the Japanese YouTubers I like is Runnyrunny999. :D
He stated that this method is a cheat one, because the original recipe is to use だし dashi soup (which i have no idea how to get that) but he said that めんつゆ mentsuyu has been already seasoned by dashi and soy sauce.
I don't know how does the original one tastes like, as that was my first time trying 親子丼.

I love Japanese cuisine a lot, because they serve like really generously and the way they add all the garnishes and stuff..makes me enjoy food. Japanese cuisine gave me the deepest impression I guess. Or maybe I'm just biased. ( ̄▽ ̄)
Here's an example of being generous:

尾道ラーメン Onomichi Ramen from Hiroshima.

Like, omg?! (*゚Д゚) Look at that multitudinous amount of spring onions. And you know what, I love spring onions a lot.

..And this:

ラーメンゼロ Zero Ramen (o.o) from Tokyo.

If there was a longgg street of Japanese food stalls right below my flat I would


and I would


uh huh.
じゃあね(*^ー^)ノ~~☆
