"Jagabee" Potato Chips

Time for salty snack again, everyone!

I love potato chips in general. From classical Lays, Sun Chips, Doritos and so forth to gourmet Kettle chips, local brand chips and so forth.

For the longest time, my absolute favorite has been Calbee Potato Chips seaweed and salt flavor from my childhood. For those of "nori" (seaweed) fan, you should try this out too! These potato chips resemble Lays chips (thin kind) but it has sprinkle of seaweed and salty flavor. Amazing!

However, even though I love potato chips so much, I have been having affair with a new type of chips: Calbee Jagabee Butter Soy Potato Sticks to be precise. The shape resembles french fries but it is essentially potato chips (or potato sticks). Because of its shape, you can enjoy very condensed flavor and chips-ness all at once. "Lightly salted" flavor is also available but our family's favorite is "butter soy sauce". It is buttery and soy saucy - best of all!

One last note to make is that if you have ever stopped by airport in Japan, you will find a similar product called Calbee Jaga-Pockle. Again, because it doesn't come with butter soy sauce flavor, I like Jagabee more.

"Yukimi-daifuku" Mochi Ice Cream

The weather in Bay Area has been weird for the last couple weeks. One weekend, you thought Spring finally arrived but then the temperature immediately dropped to 50s (10 Celsius) the following week (in the morning). This weekend was the same again. It has been chilly for the last two days but this Saturday, it suddenly hit 80s (26 Celsius) during the day. My kids and I were not dressed properly for the temperature when we went to a park and we had to escape back to home in less than one hour! Anyway, although I don't eat ice cream often, when it gets hot, I won't say no to ice cream. I am very particular about my ice cream. I like Haagen-Dazs (strawberry flavor, rum raisin flavor, vanilla flavor, almond chocolate ice cream bar) and  Tillamook (only discovered this recently and only tried strawberry flavor). I also stop by gourmet ice cream shop once a while. However, my absolute favorite ever since I was a kid is mochi  ice cream - " Yukimi-daifuku ". It direc...

"Yukinoyado" Sweet Rice Cracker

Bonjour! It has been a week since I last updated my blog. My life keeps being "sucky" with annoying corporate job. It is even worse when I get sick - ouch! Today, I finally regained a little bit energy to write about my favorite rice cracker - "Yukinoyado" 雪の宿  . "Yukinoyado" translates to snow lodge. Rice cracker is light weight, crunchy Asian cracker made of rice. You can absolutely taste rice in these snacks. It is also very very crunchy so it makes a very loud sound when you bite into it. There are variety of flavors available for rice cracker such as sweet soy sauce flavor, salt flavor, seaweed flavor. My absolute favorite since kid is "Yukinoyado". There's milky sugar candy (resemble snow fall) coated on top of lightly salted rice cracker. When you put it into your mouth, you taste strong sweetness with salty flavor. After you start munching on the cracker part, you taste mix of saltiness and sweetness evenly. Since rice cracker i...
