It's already 2017 and I've been thinking how to improve myself this year. So I was thinking what were the most recent changes in me, in late 2016 that I'd be carrying into 2017.
For one, I've been eating more northeast Asian foods. Whether Korean or Japanese, I just couldn't get enough of the cuisine. I felt like I'm getting more in touch with my Asian heritage
Because why not? Asians are known for having a diet that helps prevent obesity. My last dinner of 2016 (above) was in Yanagi, a restaurant at Midas Hotel & Casino along Roxas Boulevard. It's obviously a Japanese restaurant but I did not choose it. It was there by default.
I also had a steak but I wasn't able to take a photo. Even so, it was like Japanese style beef steak. Point is, it's still Asian in quality.
Despite the options available and those I've tried, I think I enjoyed and wanted more the fruits.
Asians are known for eating fruits for desserts unlike the Westerns who prefer pastries and sweets. I guess it's one of the reasons why I'm becoming more "Asian" lately. The lifestyle is healthy and simply my bet. Of course Asian countries have pastries too but they just seem different than those in the west.
My first breakfast of the year consisted of lots of yellow foods. Except for the danggit and beef tapa.
I felt good when I ate fruits first before the actual meal. It seemed like I was craving for fruits. Too bad there was no citrus available when I had breakfast.
So I had soft scrambled eggs, slices of hard boiled egg, salted egg, roasted potatoes, a few mushrooms, tomato slices, beef tapa, and fried garlic rice.
My second breakfast of the day was not so Asian. Egg omelette, cucumber slices, tomato slice, lettuce, and five slices of smoked salmon. It wasn't spectacular. I just hope I got enough nutrients with how my breakfast was cooked.
I also had a fresh watermelon juice. I chose it for hydration purposes. But I didn't know it's mega overpriced. Thinking about it, the juice was more expensive than the egg breakfast. Methinks of clarifying the price tomorrow.

Well, I'm going to eat now. Writing about food makes me hungry.
