Oh, and on the subject of Singapore, I've been learning to cook Asian dishes. Next up: Hainanese Chicken Rice. I've got a craving.

Little point for me to try to cook Singaporean food given how cheap it is if I just decide to walk 10 minutes to get it. I have been learning to do Thai food lately and usually cook it once or twice a week. What have you tried to cook?

I actually made a chicken teriyaki for lunch earlier. It was quite good, I'll just have to get cornstarch next time and adjust the quantities. I was pleasantly suprised to find sesame seeds on the counter. I also made a katsudon last week and I've now tried making ramen twice. It's not all Japanese though, I have noodles at home I've been cooking with the help of my wok. Last thing I did was chicken with vegetables and a Thai curry paste.

There are other things too. I've done Indian curries in the past but in the future I will try some Thai or Japanese curries. I would love to be able to replicate a hearty food court Japanese curry.

OSU, Junior?
I have a cousin who is a professor there.

Yes, congratulations!

You’ll love Columbus, it’s the Paris of the Midwest  ;)

Thanks! That's very cool. What does your cousin teach?

I’m sorry, I misspoke - he’s an Associate Professor of Psychology on the Mansfield campus.
