[055] Shit and Food is a fine line away　食於屎乃是一線之差

-
Many Japanese restaurants are very small. Their toilets are right next to the tables. So when you're inside doing any kind of business, you have a feeling of proximity with the people eating right outside the door. How do I know? I was in Rolex's position :P

不少日本餐廳都很小，廁所也在桌子的旁邊而已。所以當你在裡面做任何生意時，都會感覺於外面的食客有一種非常“親密”的感覺。我怎麼知道呢？當然是因為我也曾經“屎”過啦～

    Isao: We don't call it as "international" bus terminal, it's just a normal bus interchange. If you're taking a public bus, you'll have to change to a mrt later to the agency that you'd mentioned. Not sure how you want to get here. Flying takes an hour, bus rides probably 5-6 hours. It's possible to be a day trip if you can sleep in the bus XD

Boiled coke and ginger lemon for cough

This post has nothing to do with Japan, except that I have the tendency to fall sick during long Japanese holidays like year end and golden week. So with weak Japanese medicine not working, and even with kiwis and lemon honey drink all failing, I resorted to my friend's advice: coke and ginger . It sounded unusual so I googled and found the recipe. Amazingly, many people swear that it works wonder to cure their coughs and sore throats, so I decided to try out of desperation because I had already been coughing for four days and four nights. Preparation: Put a can of coke (around 350ml) and sliced ginger into a pot and bring to boil, simmer for 10 mins. You can either add lemon when it was simmering or squeezed lemon juice after you pour into your mug. *I couldn't get old ginger from my Japanese supermarket so I used young ginger that was not so spicy. Verdict: I couldn't believe it, but it tasted rather good! Even my friend who disliked ginger said this remedy taste...
