Sorry to be so dumb but what exactly is tako-yaki? :confused:

no need to apologize. :mrgreen:

tako yaki is like....

basically, an eyeball sized ball of "pancake" batter with (usually) a piece of octopus inside.. sometimes we'd add konnyaku, green onions, cheese ,bonito shavings, etc. inside.

I think i should make one of those Kim Chi noodle bowl around 5:30...cept I'm afraid it'll give me problems while I take my final :beaten:

The problem with these bowls (well any instant noodles) is the amount of sodium. Almost a whole day's amount in one serving. Had to drink lots of water to dilute the salt.

yeah, those things are loaded with MSG, sodium, a serving of one of those is 800 - 1300 mg's of sodium, something like that. Yeah, i try not to drink all the soup, and i drink lots of water too, to dilute it. Once in awhile, it is ok to have, but not too often. :hehe: :thumbsup:

not sure what i am going to eat for lunch today. had oatmeal for breakfast, trying to eat somewhat healthier thesedays. :bonk:

Dinner was .. GREC sandwich with fries !

ate Mr. Lee's sandwiches today, 2 spring rolls, 1 combo sandwich, and 1 thai ice tea all for $6.09, not too bad eh? and filling and somewhat healthy. :bonk:
