Maple Bacon Simmered Hijiki Seaweed

Hi there! After a looooong time, I translated my recipe!

This dish is cool! You can arrange it in many ways!!! I will show you how at the end.

Hijiki is a black seaweed known to be rich in dietary fiber and essential minerals! Instead of using sugar, I used maple syrup which is low in calories and also rich in minerals ;)

Chicken Taco Rice

Today, I had lunch with my co-workers. We had tacos lunch at a Mexican cafe called Vida Rosa. I liked their interior. The place was pretty fashionable ;)

I had a lunch menu: Chicken Taco Rice & Soup + Onion Potato + Drink.

It was pretty good, but I ran out of time to finish everything, since I talked too much! He-he ;) Also, I brought my camera with me but forgot to take a shot... damn!

Anyway, I had a good time!

I just organized my posts.
I added links on the left sidebar, under ABOUT THIS BLOG, to view "Cafes and Restaurants" and "My Travels". I couldn't apply labels to every single posts but I hope you find them interesting ;)

I have too many things to post... Hmm...
I will try to complete them one by one + day by day when I have enough time.

Tonight I have hula class. I can't wait to attend!!!

Aloha :)
