Hey Gordon Ramsay et al or whomever will listen...I have an interesting idea for a show!! (June 18, 2013 Japan Standard Time 10:14am)

I bet you get that a lot Chef Ramsay...but I have an idea that is relevant to today's socioeconomic situation. Currently you have shows geared towards those that are basic cooks wanting to become chefs or those that want to make a name for themselves or wanting a turnaround in their current restaurant. But as most people are struggling to make ends meet, I think a show that takes people in the lower class and shows them how to budget correctly and teaches them how to cook smartly will make for an interesting show. I'm kind of sick of seeing Undercover Boss trying to throw in the very often sap story. Every week it has an employee that had this or that happen to them and it seems staged. With the bottom of the lower class society they have a very limited amount to survive and most struggle or starve. I was watching a show about families in welfare trying to make ends meet with around $25 a week just for food. How about a way to teach them how to make nutritional food and feed their families for the whole week at that amount or under instead of eating canned processed food. How to get things for a lower price or even free since most restaurants throw away their food at the end of the day. Even if you only do a few episodes I think it will help those in need especially the children.


Thanks!

Good place for a burger near Kanazawa train station

So...for those of you who are craving a good burger and are too lazy to make one yourself, this is for you. :)

Next to the Kanazawa station (金沢駅) you will find the Forus shopping mall/building. On the 7th floor (where the movie theater is) you will find yourself a little eatery called デリカフェ＆バー C.C. (Deli cafe & bar C.C., 営業時間 [operating hours] ： 11:00～24:00 ラストオーダー [last order] 23：30). Here you can get a nice burger w/ or w/o cheese, fries, coleslaw and a drink for less than 8-900 yen! Great deal for Japan.

For those that like beer, they also have a beer garden during the summer months.

Here's a picture of the set. I forgot to take a pic before I started to eat >_<;

1st post...

Well this is my second attempt at a blog. The first one on FB didn't go so well and it is limited to only those on FB. This will basically be a blog on what you can see in Kanazawa, Ishikawa (石川県金沢市). It will mainly be geared towards foreigners wanting to visit.

If there is a growing interest, I have a "list" of parking places that are cheap and near Katamachi (片町), the main area to have a good time.

I will be doing some reviews of places I like to go for some good eats.

I will also put up some info and pictures of events and things that are going on around town.

And of course any comments and recommendations are welcome. Oh and in regards to the comments...if you can't say something nice, keep it to yourself.

Cheers!
