Which do you like more: bread or rice? I personally love rice more since i grew up everyday eating rice. (I grew up with a Japanese Mom)
It's a hell of a lot better than the shitty American rice that falls apart and half the grains aren't cooked so they're crunchy. Chinese and American style rice is a hell of a lot better.NeutralDrow said:Rice, definitely. I was raised on Japanese-style steamed rice, myself!

Wait, are you from Hawaii? Besides that, I live in Hawaii, so I can experiment with a lot of different foods. MMmmm. Curry and Terikyaki with Spam Musubi and Kimchee Saimin is awesome.NeutralDrow said:Fix't, I suspect. ^_^mrhappyface said:It's a hell of a lot better than the shitty American rice that falls apart and half the grains aren't cooked so they're crunchy.

Yeah, I haven't found too many American style rices that I liked. Some Mexican rice is good, and certain Middle Eastern types (Kurdish and Arabic, especially). All comes back to Japanese, for me.
Sure, I wouldn't say no to a baguette or some Hawaiian sweet bread, and bread probably goes with more things...but have you ever tried to make a curry or a sukiyaki sandwich? Doesn't work.
But surely nobody could choose rice over the legendary potato?EspirituExterminatus said:You shoulda made it between rice and potatos.
Nope, California. We just get that bread in our groceries (didn't even know it was really Hawaiian, I thought it might have just been a brand).mrhappyface said:Wait, are you from Hawaii?

A peanut butter and banana sandwich? Bread it is, then!Pimppeter2 said:Bananas!
Saimin is basically a combination of various Japanese, Okinawan, and Chinese noodles, served with green onion and daichi and kimchee. It's unique to Hawaii.NeutralDrow said:Nope, California.

I'm still trying to learn more Japanese cuisine, but I've yet to get more experimental than oyakodon with garlic. As for the others, never tried spam, myself, but I'm willing to believe spam musubi is good; any meat worth eating is worth eating in onigiri (same with vegetables and tempura). And I hate to sound stupid but...what's saimin? I know what kimchee is, but...
