Pulled | Pork

I do not know when it started but when you look around these days there are burger restaurants everywhere. The newest addition in all the burger restaurants on the menu is pulled pork. Honestly, I have not ordered a pulled pork burger yet since when I am at a burger restaurant I want an ordinary classic cheese…

Ma | Po | Tofu

When we go shopping in Düsseldorf we always go food shopping in little Tokyo! The Korean supermarket Hanaro offers everything you need for Korean cuisine and some other Asian goods. Honestly it is the other way around we go food shopping in Düsseldorf and do also some general shopping. MA | PO | TOFU 1…

Takumi | Düsseldorf | Germany

What we had | Bottle of Water | Tan Tan Men | Miso Ramen Atmosphere | Sometimes I think we do not go for the food but for the atmosphere, although the food is also great. It is a super tiny restaurant with, let me guess, 20 chairs on about 20m2 and 4m2 of that…

New | Year’s | Soup

Happy lunar new year to the Asian community out there! Being Korean myself I know that the next days are all about family and lots and lots of good food. These days the Ddok Soup is a must in Korea. DDOK | SOUP 2 bowles of sliced rice cake | 100g meat for soup | 1 egg…

And way more healthier! RED | AND | GREEN 1 bunch coriander | 1 spring onion | 2 tomatoes | 1/2 a lime | 1 clove garlic |…

Tortilla | Con | Veggies

I admit the classic Tortilla is different but I just love my veggies. 7 eggs | 10 cherry tomatos | 1/2 paprika | 1/2 chorizzo | 5 potatoes | 1-2 onions | 50ml milk | 50ml water | salt In a pot filled with boiling water cook the potatoes and let them cool down after they…

Schnitzel | Or | Donkatsu

Guess everybody is familiar to how to make Schnitzel. I just want to give those who live in Europe or a non-Asian country the tip to go to an Asian supermarket and buy the Asian breadcrumbs, panko. Panko has a light, airy, and delicate texture that helps it crisp as it cooks. The texture of…

My | Paprika | Gulash

A few months ago I came to watch a tv show where they tested a few gulash restaurants also revealing some secrets about how to make it right and this is what I made of it. PAPRIKA | GULASH 800g boneless beef chuck (preferably chuck-eye roast or chuck tender) | 5 onions | 3 red…

German | Spätzle | Noodles

Always used to buy packed up Spätzle in the supermarket but home made is so much better along with gulash and co. After you made them yourself once you will never ever want to buy packed up Spätzle anymore. In the recipe I refer to all ingredients on the basis of one egg. So depending…

Beans | Meet | Garlic

Are you also tired of beans rolled in bacon? It is a typical sidedish to meat in Germany. Meat with meat and some veggies to keep the illusion it is healthy. Most of the time it is cooked so long that the beans are turning grey. If the restaurants at least would not kill the…

Steak | In | Red

Meanwhile I think a steak is the most easiest and most delicious fastfood you can make on your own. Let your steak come to room temperature and generously season with salt and pepper before  placing it into a frying pan with oil on really high heat. Make sure the pan is hot before you place…

Blackbean | Noodles

Koreans know which dish I mean. Children love it and so do adults. It is a typical Chinese dish you get in Chinese Restaurants in Korea. Although I do not know if you can actually find this in China. Usually Koreans do not visit Chinese restaurants. Most of them let Chinese food be delivered to…
