Welcome
Welcome to <strong>Itadaki</strong>.

<strong>The Desire for the Journey</strong>

We walk the paths in the journey of our artistic lives. It doesn't matter how far a person has gone, or if even if the way has been lost, as long as the passion, the love and the joy are still there we believe that every moment is a step forward. The desire to keep walking is all that matters and all that is required.


<strong>Empty Your Cup</strong>

We believe in humbling oneself, putting the ego aside, and always keeping an open mind. It does not matter how much a person learns or how much his or her skill has developed, there is always a chance to learn something new even from the most novice seeming.

The teacup is the symbol of Itadaki. The only way to taste the tea of another person is to empty your cup.

The Itadaki Forum is all about cultivating this.
We welcome all to be open, to share, and enjoy.

What with all the No Reservations and Bizarre Foods shows on, you know there's gotta be something out there you crave but just can't get yet...

Bake n' Shark - Shown on Bizarre Foods as one of the top things Andrew Zimmerman has had EVER. It looks really good. OMG.

Kobe Beef - No American imitations, REAL kobe beef. I want it...

McDonalds in Japan - Everything in the McDonalds in Japan looks ten times better than over here...Teriyaki McBurger?! YES PLZ.

I agree with what you have there and I'll add:

White Castle Slider - Being from the west coast I've never had a chance to try White Castle burgers (and I don't mean the frozen ones from the grocery store). I've always wanted to ever since I heard about 'em from Wizard Magazine and definitely after Harold and Kumar. I would road trip it across the country just to go to a White Castle.

The pork Bourdain had in Bali Indonesia - I love crispy pork roasted over an open spit, the one Bourdain had in Bali looked superb. I almost died salivating watching that episode.

Lombardi Pizza - There's another pizza joint I'd like to go to in New York, but I forget the name. In the end I'd just love to try NY style pizza baked in a super hot brick oven, thin crust with some carbon on the bottom and that crackle with gooey cheese on top.

Philly Cheese Steak from Pat's and Geno's - Love cheese steaks! Curious to see who joint I would favor most.

Peter Lugar Steakhouse - I have yet to try a really awesome steak.

Bugs - Although squeemish about it, I'd also like to try a variety of bugs. I hear they taste good, good for you (I hear they contain more protein than beef w/out all the fat), and the crispy texture is nice. Plus there's plenty of them everywhere. So it seems the only thing stopping many people from eating them is that they've grown up with the idea that eating bugs is gross. I think it's sad that many people are missing out because of a mental thing.

El Bulli - Molecular gastronomy is so fascinating. I want to try foods based around this concept first from Ferran Adria.

Jaegerschnitzel- One of many German dishes my dad talks about that sound really good. According to him, It's a thin fillet of pork or veal covered in breading and mushroom sauce.

Other than that, I'm not sure. I'm a bit picky with what I eat so it's hard for me to think of stuff to eat.

I've had White Castle and Peter Luger. Good stuff.

I would never want to eat a bug. "mental thing" Dude, it's a bug. That's just upsetting.

I'm sure there are foods I wanted to try but I don't remember what they were at the moment. Well, there is chocolate covered bacon... huh.

Orange Lemonade - Kay, it's a drink but still. It's the name of my own website and yet I haven't had it!

Kobe Beef - I'm with Chevi on this one! I want to try this so bad, if only to have one bite.

Any food from Sonic - They don't have Sonic in WA and it drives me nuts! I've managed to have one cherry limeade from there when I visited Denver, but haven't had anything else. D:

Rice/Hazelnut/Almond Milk - Since normal cow milk is out for me I want to try these! I already drink soy so I know how that is but I want to see what these taste like, too.

Durian Fruit - It's this really vile-smelling fruit from Malaysia that despite its smell is supposed to taste good. I'm really curious about this one. I'm not even sure if you can get it in the States.

You can buy Durians from asian markets in the states. I've had one before. I really liked it. The taste is reminiscent of sweet onions. The smell is revolting.

Also, Sonic is nothing special at all. Like... better than McDonald's and Burger King, but not as good as Fatburger or In n' Out burger. Sort of like Wendy's that Drive Thru Only.

We are complacient when we get what we want. We rebel when we do not have our way, like children fighting over the petiest of things. We are all greedy dogs whether we like it or not.
