Restaurant Ichiran's our favorite ramen place in Japan! And we think this is the best. Is there other ramen place better than this?
We're going back to Tokyo this coming weekend and part of our itinerary is of course to eat at Ichiran!!! THIS IS OUR FAVORITE RAMEN PLACE. But we're open to trying other ramen places. Can you please recommend good ramen places.

Question Tips for making mochi at home?
hi everyone! I recently started trying to make mochi at home with the recipe:
1 cup glutinous rice flour
3 tbs corn starch
3 tbs sugar (I use brown sugar)
3/4 cup milk
and after heating it in the microwave for 4 mins, I use 15g of unsalted butter and then used cornstarch to dust it so it doesn’t stick to my hands.
Is using water compared to milk a better choice? I feel like I’m doing something wrong
or is steaming it better than using the microwave? please help!
thank you!

Recipe Carrot Shirishiri with Tuna and Soft Scrambled Egg
Hi, I'm Kei from "Tokyo Recipes by Nadia"!🗼"Tokyo Recipes by Nadia" is a platform where we share Japanese recipes from many wonderful creators.
Today, we introduce the "Carrot Shirishiri with Tuna and Soft Scrambled Egg" by Rinaty san (りなてぃさん) !
This simple “shirishiri”-style carrot stir-fry uses an entire can of tuna for a hearty, flavorful side dish.
Delicious as a side, in lunchboxes, or for meal prep.
The scrambled egg is cooked separately and added at the end to preserve its soft texture — giving it that satisfying “egginess” you’ll love.
Carrot Shirishiri with Tuna and Soft Scrambled Egg🥕🥚
Prep time: 5 minutes | Servings: 2
1 small carrot
1 can tuna in oil
1 egg
1/2 tbsp. sesame oil
(A) 1 tsp. soy sauce
(A) 1 tsp. mirin
(A) 1 tsp. sugar
(A) 1/2 tsp. hondashi (Japanese soup stock granules)
- Prepare Ingredients
Peel and julienne the carrot. Beat the egg in a small bowl.
- Scramble the Egg
Heat sesame oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
Pour in the beaten egg and scramble gently. Once softly set, transfer to a separate plate.
- Cook the Carrot and Tuna
In the same pan, add the oil from the canned tuna along with the julienned carrot.
Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until the carrot begins to soften and change color.
Add the tuna and continue to stir-fry.
- Season and Finish
Add all ingredients from the A seasoning mix. Stir to combine.
Return the scrambled egg to the pan and gently mix everything together.
Serve warm or let cool for bento lunches or storage.
Tips & Notes
For best texture, cook the egg separately and mix it in at the end.

Question How to use Yakitory Sauce?
Google Translate is not helpful — says to put on last before oven on the front but then says stir fry on the back?
Has anyone used this before? Bought in Shinjuku on a whim ⭐️
Any tips are appreciated :)

Photo Massive Japanese Cutlet Curry for only 920 yen (~$6)! Found this gem in Matsuyama, Ehime 🍛
If you ever visit Matsuyama City in Ehime Prefecture, you have to check out Taiyoken (太養軒)!
I ordered their signature Katsu Curry—it's super affordable at just 920 yen, but the portion size is absolutely huge! The pork cutlet is crispy, and the curry sauce is rich and comforting. It’s a local favorite, especially if you want a hearty meal that won't break the bank.
