I found this fantastic recipe where it only uses 4 ingredients. How awesome is that? I've made it a few times now and everyone loved it - I guess it's chocolate, nothing would go wrong with chocolate. 😅 The downside to this recipe is that because there is no flour, my chocolate cake does not look that pretty. I don't know how this person achieve it, he probably has a way better distributed heating oven than I do (am sure of it) so his cake doesn't rise too high and crack and then flatten after it cools.

It's delicious but not-so-pretty version:

I'm more of a visual person so I find watching someone make/bake something is better than reading the recipe alone, so here's the original video. It is very soothing as it's ASMR. Enjoy ~ 🎧

Yes I agree the Biore sunscreen is the lightest sunscreen I had used.

OMG THIS THREAD IS PURE EVIL. I simultaneously hate and love you for it. @mademoisellesia 😂

Since I intend to stay / explore the Ueno area more the next time I can visit Tokyo again, this place is going on my list!

I have a few more gems! But I want to wait for some of you(s) to share yours. Otherwise it'd just be me yapping away. You are in SG, it's a food heaven there, I should be the one that hate you 😭. I so miss the Ginger & Spring Onions Sri Lankan crab I had there. I know Chilli crab is the dish to brag, but I can't take chilli so non-spicy will do.

P.S. I added an additional dish from that place in the spoiler tag. 😄

Wow, you guys' daily regime is 😲 🤩

Mine is just simple 3 steps - cleanse, tone*, moisturise (and I was suppose to put a facial sheet mask on & forgot yesterday). I dislike sunscreens so if I can avoid it, I will. If I can't then I use the same Biore UV Aqua Rich as @wallflowersforjane

*sometimes I get lazy I even skip.

Although I don't religiously apply them, but I do love these little lip balms by Mentholatum.

Gyu no Chikara

牛の力

Since I started this, I shall go first.

Story: In 2016, my intention of going to Ueno was to purchase Japanese snacks. I did not immediately head to that place after arriving at Ueno station because I was distracted by, I think, 8-9 storey high of manga and anime figurines shop! It seems to be a norm to be easily distracted when walking on the steets of Japan. The underground floor had dedicated area for all of the Hayao Miyazaki's animation collections. O-M-G.

Oops...I digress. So we finally "finished" touring that figurine shop and decided we'll stop for lunch first. Gyu no Chikara was just conveniently located beside this figurine shop, which name I still do not know even after 2nd visit. I look at the display pictures and decided, yeah, it's good enough to try... what can go wrong in Japan? Little did I know it's actually quite a well-known eatery.

First time there, I had no idea what to order, I think the ticket machine indicated "Recommended" and it wasn't spicy (they had spicy ones too), so I ordered and sat down. It was lunch time so the place was rather busy and the restaurant is quite small. I was provided with hot green tea while I waited to be served.

Ingredients: As you can see the dish consisted of rice (underneath), onions, Japanese beef, osen egg, cut seaweed and *dem* *dem* *dem* butter!

Verdict: It was the MOST delicious beef on rice with osen egg I had ever had, ok, not that I had many. It looks so simple but so yummy. The addition of butter adds extra fragrance onto the dish as it melted and mixed into the dish and makes it creamy and rich. 🤤

Special instruction: The chef signal to me to mix them all up before eating.

Drool-worthiness: 🤤🤤🤤🤤
