Japanese Tonkatsu, or chicken/pork cutlet, is something that you must try. Whenever my mom makes it for dinner, I go crazy! It’s like fried chicken, but so much more delicious. Every now and then my mom will make us chicken or pork Tonkatsu. It’s a real treat, but whenever I’m chowing down on those tender, crunchy…

L’Eggo Your Eggos
I know what you’re thinking: “Seriously Nate? Eggos? I used to eat that when I was a kid!” Here’s the thing: At Priory (my school), my sister and I often have to leave home early to get to band/choir in the morning. As our before school classes start at around 7:30 am, we are often…
Sweet Kombucha
I’m sure all of you have heard of the trending drink, Kombucha, before, but the question is, have you actually tried it? I was walking around at Robert’s Market (Portola Valley’s “Safeway”) last week and the first aisle I visited was the drinks section. As my eyes skimmed over Arizona Tea, Gatorade, Izee’s, and all…
Healthy Breakfast for the Win
Have you noticed that I have not written a breakfast themed post in a long time? Well here’s my newest breakfast addiction that will be sure to get your attention. At the beginning of the school year, my mom discovered a new snack from Fraiche, a downtown Palo Alto cafe. Fraiche is definitely known more…
Taking on the Taco Salad
One of my New Years resolutions is to cook more often. While I eat and taste food a lot, I realized that I don’t exactly cook that often. Since this was one of my dad’s resolutions as well, we try to pick at least one day out of every week to make a meal for…
Eating Ethiopian Style
Before I begin, happy New Year! I hope that everyone had an amazing (and food filled) experience celebrating the various holidays that come about this time of the year. It’s been quite a while since I started this blog back in 2015 or so, and I want to say thank you to all of my…
You Have to Try This!
So I was doing homework in my room the other day when my dad tells me that I “have to try this” new snack. He told me that it was a low carb version of popcorn, so I get excited because I’m all about healthy, tasty foods. The package read Makhana: Popped Water Lily Seeds,…
Fantastic Food Festival
I gotta say, I am probably the more excited to write this post than I have been for any other post in the past. The reason is because last Saturday I had the opportunity, as a birthday present, to visit and chow down at the San Francisco Street Food festival. Now I remember going to…
Favorite Lunch Yet!
It was a mixture of a lot of things that led me to experiencing the best Priory lunch I’ve eaten all year, a grilled Rueben Sandwich. Maybe it was the craving for something hot on a rainy day. Maybe it was the longing for something new on the menu. Maybe that sandwich I thought it…
Pop Tarts To Carrot Sticks…
Can you believe that my school is now selling Pop Tarts in our snack shack? The “cub” shack is a student run committee that sells food during the 20 minute break/recess in the morning. I get to work in there every Wednesday and from my observations, we probably sell over 60+ snacks per day. The…
