Beef eaters scholarships

I was very satisfied with almost everything I ate this trip! My stomach and I were very pleased.
Here's a very brief and probably not very informative review on some of the places we ate at, and an arbitrary rating upon 5 that considers taste, price, and might possibly also be affected by my mood on that day and the weather. (I never claimed to be a professional reviewer)

• Monkey Bar (4.1) - Not bad! I prefer the burger over the french dip, which was a bit too salty for my taste, but my friends preferred the latter.
• Raoul's (4.2) - Burger good, better than Monkey Bar. Steak yummy too.
• Keens (4) - Tasty and tender but the beef left this super strange and grainy texture on our teeth, we all had to go back and brush
• St. Anselm (4.7) - My fav steak place of the bunch. My friends preferred Keens though.
• Laserwolf (4.6) - Really yummy tbh! Maybe not worth the price but still good.
• 4 Horsemen (4.5) - Not bad, not excccceeptional.
• Sixty Three Clinton (4.8) - So good and so worth it! Although honestly all of the addons can be skipped - it's perfect without and the addons kinda make the meal too heavy. They gave me a free drink too which was nice!
• Atoboy (4.5) - Pretty yummy and not expensive, but it also didn't really taste fine. A lot of thick, creamy, dishes that children and picky eaters would enjoy. Still a good meal!
• Thirteen Water (4.8) - Really good and inexpensive omakase. I'm usually skeptical of non-traditional additions (foiegras, caviar, truffle, etc.) but nothing was overdone and the flavours were all balanced. The Hokkaido uni tasted much better than the local uni I had at Atoboy.
• Raku (5) - SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good. For us, the broth in the simple bowls (kitsune, wakame) was much nicer than the broth in the iron pots (niku)!
• Xi'an (1) - We're Chinese so this might be too critical but the texture of the noodles was hard and dry, the flavour was very 1 dimensional, the meat wasn't tender or tenderised, the dumpling filling was bland, and the dumpling skin was unacceptably thick. But I saw some fellow Chinese recommending it too so we might just have different preferences!
• Chipotle (4.3) - I'd heard that they were stingy and the quality dropped a lot but I thought the portions were HUGE and everything tasted pretty good! They were so generous with everything, especially the pork. Wonder what it used to be like if this is the downgraded version
• Joe's Pizza (4.3) - Tasty, not bad not amazing
• L'Industrie Pizza (4.7) - Yummy! Def better than Joe's. I might have rated it higher but I saw the person who ordered after us get a slice with a lot more toppings so that might have made me slightly sad
• Los Tacos (4) - Yummy but is it just me or is it really expensive for what it's worth.......
• Yellow Rose (4.7) - I didn't see this place recommended in any of the popular lists but it appeared in the Michelin guide and I just booked it cause it was cheap but this was really delicious! But also I live a bajillion miles from Mexico so I'm definitely not the best gauge - idk anything about Mexican food
• Katz's (4) - My friends liked it but it was too salty for me! They're really generous with the samples though, the carver kept cutting more and more and somehow it's yummier when you grab the fresh slices and eat it there (instead of in the sandwich). It's just the vibe.
• Lysee (4.7) - Delicioussssss but the prix fixe was way too much for 2 girls (especially between a heavy lunch and before a heavy dinner). I especially love the corn and the Lysee bc they're so unique and taste so distinctly Asian. The kouign amann and strawberry tart were delicious too, but if I had limited stomach space I'd pick the other two!
• Levain (4.6) - People suggested skipping this place but it pulled through! Really good cookie I loved it, but it's too expensive imo. Still worth a try.
• Magnolia Bakery (3) - Skippable

And that's all the places that I remember for now! Not sure if anyone will read this but I got a lot of recommendations when I asked for them and I'm so grateful for them, so I thought I might as well come back with the feedback 😗

I swear 50% of my brain fatigue comes from having to choose what to eat every fricken day.
I’ve always been a picky eater but I’m especially bad with eggs and meat. I’ve worked my way up to 2 poached eggs once or twice a week, but that’s it and anymore and I start to get grossed out. And I really dislike poultry dark meat and pork. I do like beef and chicken breast but unless it’s freshly cooked I don’t like them plain (with just seasoning), they really need to be dressed up or eaten with something else for me to stomach it.
My body has recently decided it can no longer digest dairy, which is where at least 50% of my protein was coming from. It has also decided to become sensitive to GOS which is found in chickpeas (hummus), tahini, tofu, soy, almonds, etc.
One of my go to protein sources used to be Greek yogurt. It’s SO easy and filling and I don’t even have to think about it while I eat it, I can just get it in. I also used to eat a lot of hummus at lunch because again it was easy and I didn’t have to think about it. Oh and cheese was another big protein source! 2 babybels have 10g of protein and are easy to have as a snack.
The only protein powder that doesn’t cause painful bloating now is unflavoured pea protein which is honestly disgusting but whatever at least I can just chug it and be done with it.
I do usually meal prep once a week. I hate eating the same everyday unless it’s a hyper focus meal but at least I don’t have to think about what I’m eating. But then I eat all of the food and having to decide what eat for the week starts all over again 😭 (and so many of my fav meal preps have dairy 😭😭)
So anyway now I feel like I’m on the verge of a meltdown every time I have to have a meal because all the easy go to’s that I DID like, I can no longer eat. Life would be so much easier if I could just get myself to eat a fucking hard boiled egg but I can’t and I juuuuuuuust hate it.
My husband works up north at a camp job and I’m so jealous that all he has to do is walk into a cafeteria and pick something already made and that’s it, that’s the decision. No having to think about the ingredients or the cleaning that needs to be done before you can cook or the cleaning that needs to be done afterwards, or all of the steps included in cooking like chopping. You just walk in, pick which already made protein, veggie and carb you’d like and your done.
That’s it, that’s the post. Thanks for listening to me vent.

My 1 year old just became a picky eater overnight and now when I try to feed him he looks at the spoon and cries. He doesn’t have any medical issues he’s just picky now. I’m a first time mom so I don’t know what to cook for him that maybe he’ll enjoy, these are things I’ve tried that he used to like but no longer, Salmon Spaghetti Avocado Beef (but loves Salisbury steak, but not healthy) Beans Corn Greens Salad Mostly all fruits Now all he wants to eat is cheerios.. any ideas? His father had two heart attacks at the age of 25 and has heart stents, I’m so deathly afraid of my son’s health I try to stay on top of it as much as I can.

I started Carnivore yesterday. I have never been a big meat eater, just never been a huge fan. So I told myself I would just take it slow and easy into it. But yesterday I decided to just jump in. My goal is 120g of protein a day. Yesterday I had about 125g. I also bought a large thing of bacon and made all of it. Saved the fat. Then cooked 1.69 lbs of 80/20 ground beef added 16 slices of bacon all broken up and then a cup of fat. I've calculated it to be about 183g of fat. I'm going to separate it in half and add enough eggs to be at 120g for 2 days. So I'm not worried about fat content. I'm nervous about the cold turkey transition. I watched HomesteadHow Mental Health Carnivore, I can't remember her name. But she talked about her transition period of losing her hair and feeling just like shit. Then you have Joe rogan who said he had diarrhea for 3 weeks. So I guess I just wanted to see what others have experienced and how they felt so I can feel more prepared and remind myself it's just the transition period. Thank you.

SW 345 GW 220ish - Since Jan 1st I've lost close to 30lbs. Started with .5mg then progressed to 1.mg. My Dr. Meets with me monthly when I get my semaglutide to check in and monitor progress and we will be doing blood work every 4 months.
I've been drinking a gallon of water a day, toned out the food noise. I haven't really set a meal plan or looked into dieting while on Semaglutide.
What I have done though is 1). Cut out majority of sugary drinks. I'll have maybe 1 coke a week, rest of the time it's a gallon of water a day religiously, unsweet tea, sugar free iced coffee from the local coffee spot a few times a month (maybe like 2-3 times a week). 2.). Protein based meals. I'm a meat eater so it might be a partial chicken breast, house/chef salad, grilled chicken wings, some bbqd beef pork chicken etc etc. All in smaller portions than what I used to. 3.) I cut my carbs down to like 50ish carbs a day 4.) Eating only when I'm hungry, and not snacking on junk food through the day. Although to satisfy "hunger" or occasional food noise I'll eat a few baby carrots n ranch 5.) Starting tomorrow I will be getting more active, probably start with a 15min walk and progress to 30min then I'd like to get in the gym at some point.
All of this is new to me and I'd like to make better progress. I don't want to just let the semaglutide do the work, I know I need to have a lifestyle change to maximize my weight loss and getting healthier. So with all that said ....
What are y'all eating for meals, snacks, drinks and exercise?

I'm a somewhat adventurous eater, Flexitarian (NO beef, pork, lamb) not terribly concerned about price as long the quality is good.
Looking for a meal kit service for convenience, and to cut down on food waste. Cooking for 2 - my fiance and me.
I've read the reviews here on Sunbasket, Gobble, Blue Apron, and Green Chef. Seems that there are negative reviews for all of these (along with the positive reviews). It's hard to make a decision based on the reviews, but I think these 4 are probably going to be closer to how we normally eat and/or food that we both enjoy.
We live in the suburban Chicago area, and I work from home full time so it's less risk of food sitting outside in the sun for hours.
Anyone have insight / info about the location of the distribution / fulfillment centers? I would think that the less time the box-o-food spends in a truck the better quality the ingredients will be. I've also noticed that since Sunbasket and Gobble are now under the same parent company, the complaints about quality have increased.
Which of these 4 are the less risky gamble at this point?

My mum wants to have dinner with my partner and I. She's a picky eater, and our family usually only goes for pub food because it easily accommodates everyone. Her go-to dinner meal is some meat (lamb, schnitzels, beef, sausages) with mashed potatoes and steamed veg. She won't deviate far from that, if at all.
My partner is Muslim. He's come to two family dinners where he wasn't able to eat anything (he ate beforehand), because our go-to places aren't Halal. It wasn't a huge deal for those because they were family dinners (13+ people) so he spent more time getting to know everyone, but this is just my mum, him and me and I don't want him to not eat be able to eat this time.
On top of that, my partner won't eat at places that serve pig (some places have halal meat but still serve pig, and he's worried about cross-contamination).
I'm struggling to find somewhere that will accommodate for both of them. Halal friendly pub-like food. We're Penrith / Liverpool areas, but willing to go closer to / in Sydney if it means they can both eat.

This sub has been a huge help in my itinerary preparation and general whatever questions so I thought why not return the favor.. 3 months later. Welp, better late than never!
This trip report will be done chronologically, detailing our mistakes as we went (especially on day 1). And I'll probably be sprinkling in some tips and learnings here and there.
Travel dates
February 18 to 22 – Kyoto February 22 to 27 – Tokyo
Day 1
After landing at Narita airport, we were able to breeze through the immigration and customs lines, mainly because of the Japan web QR codes and maybe also partly because we had a morning flight. First things that I wanted to get in order ASAP were:

1. Cash - Took us a while to find an ATM in the airport, but did find one in the lower floor and withdrew just a tad over 20k JPY (a mistake).
   
2. Yamato Transport - After getting cash, I wanted to buy and load my Suica card first but it turns out there aren't any nearby the arrival area. Since Yamato is inside the airport, I just decided to do that first. Paid 5260 JPY in total for 2 luggages sent to our Kyoto hotel. Not sure if it's a measurement error or a done deliberately, but the Tokyo (NRT) to Kyoto fee was much more expensive than our Kyoto to Tokyo luggage fee.
   
3. Suica - Finally found a JR East office that sells the 10 year Suica cards. Bought two, one for me and my partner. Initial load was 1500 JPY, so I deposited 500 each so each card ended up costing 2000 JPY. After sorting all that out, I topped up our Suica cards at a 7-Eleven store. But since I did a rookie mistake of only withdrawing 20k JPY, I was only able to load 5k for each card. I call this a mistake because the foreign exchange and withdraw transaction fees where I'm from are WILD so I should, as much as possible, minimize the amount of withdrawals that I do.
   

Next task was to buy tickets for the Narita Express bound for Tokyo station. It wasn't difficult to get one, but turns out that I selected the unreserved seats option when I got my ticket. All of the seats in the NEX are supposedly reserved os I'm not sure why that was even an option. Luckily, I asked a guard about my ticket, at that time just making 1000% sure we're in the right place. He found out that I had an unreserved ticket so he taught me how to change to a reserved one in the kiosk near the tracks. So big thanks to that guy.
Slept the entire way from NRT to Tokyo station. Tokyo station wasn’t as bad as I expected. After just following the signs leading to Tokaido Sanyo shinkansen, managed to find ourselves in the right floor and right gate. I tried to redeem our reserved tickets, but somehow couldn’t get it to work. Turns out that this is not an isolated issue and people on Reddit are also complaining about this. Apparently all you need to do is just let the gate machine scan your QR code and then it spits out a ticket for you. The conductor asked me to insert my 2 tickets from the NEX too, probably to ‘end’ the trip.
While waiting for our 1 PM train, we bought some ekibens and water. Got pork cutlet and unagi. Around 12:50 we decided to go up and wait for the train there. Turns out the train was the one waiting for us. Apparently you can already board a shinkansen 20 minutes before departure.. when the clock struck 1 PM, the train immediately left the station.
Ate and then slept for quite a bit at the train. We had premium or business class style seats, so it was pretty comfortable. I wasn’t really feeling well, so I had a hard time resting. Asked my partner to wake me up if she sees Mt. Fuji, but Fuji-san was shy that day.
Arrived at the specified time, as usual when it comes to Japanese standards. Looked for signs leading to the Subway and Karasuma line, as that will be our next train going to the hotel. Managed to find it quite easily. Metros and subways are really just about following instructions, turns out. Shocker. As we arrived at the exit gate leading to the subways, we didn’t know what to do again so asked for help from the gate conductors. They just took our ticket and scanned our qr codes and then let us pass.
Found the entrance gate to the Karasuma line and tapped our Suicas. We were able to go inside without any problems. Couple minutes later, we arrived at Shijo station and tried to exit when for some reason it wouldn’t accept our cards. Obviously I have no idea again what happened here. A concerned citizen pointed us to the fare change booth, but it only ended up recharging my card another 1k yen. After a couple more failures, just decided to call for help using the help desk/kiosk thing. The attendant asked me to scan my card and then he opened the gate. We stayed at THE GENERAL KYOTO Shijo Shinmachi for our Kyoto leg, which was pretty close from the station. After taking a little rest, we went to Nishiki market even though most of the stalls are already closed. We weren't very hungry due to sleep deprivation so we just bought strawberry daifukus. Wanted to check the good coffee place nearby (WEEKENDERS) even though I had an inkling it was already closed, but was pleasantly surprised to find out that they were still open and accepting orders at 1 minute before their closing time. The coffee was amazing, of course. We left shortly after finishing our cups and headed to a nearby Lawson to top up our cards again, withdraw additional cash, and buy some snacks.
Day 2 - Temple hopping, Pontocho
Started our day at 9:30 AM. First stop was Shijo station, just to have my partner's Suica card fixed. The station staff was really efficient and was able to fix the card in no time, probably because they get idiots like us everyday. Unfortunately, it rained the moment we got out of the station, which lasted the entire day. We had our minds set to our itinerary, so we had a quick Daiso run for some face towels and umbrella. After our first ever Japan bus ride, which turned out to be the wrong bus, we were finally able to ride the correct bus for Kiyomizudera. We hiked to the top with a shit ton of people and elementary school kids who were on a field trip. We didn’t really mind the crowd – explored, took some photos, and paid 400 JPY to enter the temple premises. After circling the entire perimeter of the temple, we went down to the next temple in our itinerary, Kodaiji. Bought a snoopy ice cream on the way down and this pickled cucumber on stick which we found absolutely disgusting, to say the least.
To reach Kodaiji, we passed through Gion street, which had lots of cute distractions everywhere. Entered a ring making store, but didn’t buy anything. Saw the second Ghibli merch store and got some souvenirs this time. Reached Kodaiji but decided not to go inside anyway lol. We went to Maruyama Park instead and enjoyed spending time petting and taking pictures of the most obese cats we've ever seen in our lives.
We had more temples that we were supposed to visit in our itinerary, but at this point with the rain and all we just decided to fuck it and skip them. Went to Ichizawa Shinzaburo Hanpu, an old canvas bag shop that only has this one store in Kyoto. A bit pricey, but it's even more expensive on their online store so I took my sweetest time to find one that I really liked before I pulled the trigger.
At this point, we haven't had a proper meal ever since we set foot in Japan. So we took a bus to the nearest Ichiran and got the ramen bowl with soft-boiled egg add-on. It was good, but nothing life changing. As we were in the area, we walked to WEEKENDERS (again), and ordered pourover and iced latte. Everything was amazing. On the way to Pontocho, we passed by our first Donki and ate our first famichiki. That thing is insanely good and one of my biggest regrets is not eating more of it. Strolled by Pontocho alley, didn't eat at any of the restaurants. We didn't have any winter clothes at all, so we went to UNIQLO and GU for some heattechs and outerwears. Before ending our day, we paid another visit to 7-Eleven for snacks/dinner. I think it was probably around this time that I fell in love with the salmon onigiri.
Our Yamato transport luggages arrived in the afternoon that day, so were only able to collect it when we returned to the hotel at night.
Day 3 - Fushimi Inari, Higashiyama
Arrived at the starting area of the Fushimi Inari hike 30 minutes past 12. Was wearing my newly bought long coat today and a pair of loafers. Definitely the exact opposite of clothes you’d want to wear for this kind of activity. Still, we managed to finish the entire Fushimi Inari loop, but not without sweating loads.
At the end of the hike, we went inside this cozy coffee shop by the river (Vermillion Cafe). Ordered hot coffee and bread. Place was nice but was more amazed with the Japanese cashier's fluent English. Didn’t stay for long, and then continued on our way and stumbled upon this chonky tuxedo cat. Or it could’ve been the other way around…
Anyway, after those events, we finally arrived at the end road. Plenty of food stalls everywhere, so we tried some takoyaki, chicken skewers, and karaage. Probably liked the takoyaki the most, but then again, none of them were life changing good.
After Inari, we were kind of at a loss on what to do next. We weren’t really hungry because of all the snacks, and the supposed next stop on our itinerary is already closed because of our late start. So I figured to go to Arabica instead, and found one in Higashiyama. Boarded the train to Kyoto and then a bus to the area. Turns out that this Arabica spot is the one that’s famous for the Yasaka pagoda background. Took some pics, bought coffee, which was terrible at first but got better as it mixed, then took more pics. Fair warning if you're lactose intolerant, you might want to stay away from Arabica's coffee..
Again, we didn’t know what to do after our coffee stop. We just mindlessly strolled for a while, until finally setting our sights on Gion. Noticed that there’s a gyukatsu place on the way, so we decided to eat there for dinner.
Day 4 - Arashiyama, Kinkakuji
Started the day with a fun 15km run along Kamo river. Really had a blast running there, as the riverbank never seemed to end.
Had a long bus ride to Arashiyama, where we visited the bamboo forest and monkey park. It rained again, but at this point we've had enough rains that it didn't really matter anymore. Mount Arashi looked amazing across the Oi river, especially with the fog caused by the rain.
For lunch, we had a reservation at Unagi Hirokawa, which is also located in the vicinity. A little pricey, but the meal was superb.
Shortly thereafter, we left for Kodaiji temple. We arrived just before closing time so we just kinda sped up going around the temple. It probably would've looked much better if we went there in the morning or early afternoon. Didn't do much afterwards, just random strolls along Gion and Shijo, visiting a couple boutique stores and had takeout Mos to eat at the hotel.
Day 5 - Kyoto → Tokyo
Our last day in Kyoto. Checked out of our hotel and grabbed our last cup of coffee at Weekenders before going to the station and ride the Shinkansen to Tokyo.
Tokyo felt much colder than Kyoto for some reason. Maybe it had to do with the wind. We were freezing when we arrived outside Tokyo station. Anyway, we took the city bus from the station to Hamacho hotel, where we'll be staying at for 5 days in Tokyo.
After settling ourselves in, we strolled around the neighborhood and stopped by Single O for coffee. Walked a bit more afterwards to explore the nearby stations. Realized it was getting too cold so we decided to take a quick trip to Ginza to buy gloves and leggings.
Pretty uneventful day overall, but we were pretty tired from all the travelling so it felt nice to have a slow, easy day.
Day 6 - Shinjuku, Shibuya
Our first taste of rain in Tokyo. And what better way to spend a rainy day than to visit the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden.. But yeah, that's exactly what we did. It was freezing cold, but we had fun seeing the plum and early cherry blossoms at the garden.
We were supposed to visit Meiji Jingu and Yoyogi afterwards, but we were short of time so we went directly to the Harajuku area instead. Ate some crepes, strolled a couple blocks, and off we went to Shibuya crossing. After a couple pictures, we then went to Shibuya Sky for our scheduled visit.
Since it rained all day, we weren't allowed to go to the open/rooftop area of Shibuya Sky. We didn't get a nice view either because of all clouds and rain, so pretty unfortunate overall. But we still had fun looking at the streets below. Had a late lunch/early dinner at Tonkatsu Maisen Omotesando, which was also our first meal of the day. We didn't plan to go at this restaurant at all but I'm so glad we did because it was amazing. Their tonkatsu was something else, plus the unlimited rice, which was a welcome surprise.
If it isn't obvious by now, we're huge suckers for good coffee so we went to Koffee Mameya after our meal. There was a short line (around 5 PM) so we had to wait for a while before getting our turn at the table. This never came up on my research for some reason, but I was surprised to find out that they don't carry their own beans, and they actually only make the pourovers for you using beans from other roasteries. Both of us had a light roast (forgot which roastery) which was pretty good, but didn't really make me salivate enough to buy the beans.
Checked a couple more stores around the area. Didn't really like anything so we left and went to the ASICS RUN store in Marunouchi and bought my first pair of Superblasts. Then, we left for the hotel shortly afterwards.
Day 7 - Ueno, Asakusa
Had my morning run at the Sumida riverside, just a few blocks away from our hotel. Not as nice as Kamo river, but it was good enough for me, as someone who lives in a place with barely any running routes.
We tried this bakery beside our hotel called Boulangerie Django, somewhat European inspired but the food and bread were really good. We didn't really have much of a choice though since the aroma of the breads just draws you in when you pass by the place. Afterwards, we bought coffee to-go at Single O, which is at the other side of the street. The weather today was perfect. Sunny with some clouds. We visited Ueno zoo, even though it wasn't in our itinerary. Initial plan was stroll around Ueno park and visit the museums, but for some reason we wanted to look at some animals that day, so we did. Didn't know what else to do at Ueno afterwards so we headed to Asakusa for food.
At Asakusa, we had croquette for snacks, street izakaya for late lunch, and unagi onigiri, and cremia for more snacks. It was nice, but at the same time the place felt very congested.
Before going back to our hotel, we paid a quick visit to Akihabara just to have an idea of what the place is like. We ended up spending quite some time here, visiting a couple anime stores and claw machines. Left the place around 10 PM and arrived at the hotel at 10:30 PM.
Day 8 - Chuo area
Ran again, this time at the Imperial Palace. I think I did around 2 loops. Had a ton of fun running here, plenty of other runners as well so you could easily just latch on to their pace and cruise the entire time. It also rained again after I finished my run.
Went to Tsukiji Market first thing for snacks. Then we walked to Hamarikyu Gardens for more plum and cherry blossom spotting. Kinda wish we just skipped this since it felt pretty much just like our Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden trip with the rain. There weren't any stations nearby either, so we had to walk to our next destination, which was Ginza Steak.
Ginza Steak has set menus, but I'm pretty sure everyone's just after the unlimited wagyu beef. I think I had at least 6 servings. The person beside me, who was already there before we arrived, probably had like 20 servings. Funnily enough he struck a conversation with us just out of fun, so I told him that I think he's a very big eater. He laughed and thank me for the compliment. He was there with his daughter, who was celebrating her birthday. In the end, all of us at the table sang happy birthday for her. Such a fun moment.
We went to Glitch Coffee after our meal, then lined up for almost 2 hours just to get inside. Turns out their other branch was under construction so everyone flocked to the Ginza branch. It was 100% worth the wait though because this was the best cup of coffee we've ever had in our lives. I ended up buying 2 bags of beans from this roaster. Shopped at UNIQLO then had a small meal at TORIGIN. Bought souvenirs at Don Quixote before going back to the hotel.
Day 9 - teamLAB Borderless, Shibuya
Our last day today. First thing we did was go to teamLAB Borderless at Azabudai hills for our reservation. We didn't expect to have as much fun as we did here.
We wanted to eat ramen so we looked for one near Omotesando. Stumbled upon Oreryu Shio, supposedly a big ramen chain in Japan. Their serving was much larger than Ichiran's. Taste-wise though, I think we preferred Ichiran more.
We didn't have much planned for this last day, as we wanted to keep it open to allow us to visit places that we liked or wanted to visit again. We spent our last half day in Shibuya, doing vintage stores crawl and revisiting Takeshita street. Also did some last minute shopping at Loft Shibuya and spent all of our coins in a gachapon place near Shibuya crossing. Crossed the Shibuya crossing one last time and then we went back home to pack and rest.
Day 10 - Flight back home Our flight was at 8:00 in the morning, so there was no room to do anything else before leaving. Since we stayed in Hamacho, the T-CAT was just a few blocks away from us. We took a taxi to T-CAT, then boarded the bus to Narita. Arrived around 6 AM, which was plenty enough time for us to go through all of the stuff in the airport plus buy additional souvenir snacks.
And as promised, here's the expense breakdown of our trip: https://imgur.com/a/PCckaO1

I am taking my father in law out for lunch on Friday. He wants to go to a dive that has good food. Last time I took him to Johnnie's Beef on North Ave and he absolutely loved it. Help me out with some good ideas, beautiful people. We are not picky eaters
Edit: Thank you all for your suggestions. We went to a couple of the places mentioned and wrapped up the drive with a trip to Paulina Market to get some pork to smoke this weekend. We saved every one of your suggestions for next time.

So my entire life I’ve been a “picky eater” but it’s become a major issue in my life and I don’t know where to turn for help. I’m 32 years old and my meals consist of things children would eat.the list of foods I do eat is much much shorter than things I don’t.
Some things I can understand, others don’t make sense. For instance one of the only meats I eat is chicken, but if it’s too juicy or “squeaks” between my teeth I’ll spit it out and not eat anything else. If I bite into fatty pieces it’s the same thing. I’ll eat ground beef in tacos, but not chunky beef, and I’ll eat like hamburgers but don’t eat steaks, fish, ham, turkey anything like that.
Most of the time it’s things I’ve never even tried before. I have never eaten seafood in my life, but even the thought of touching it makes me feel like I’m going to be sick.
Recently I’ve come to realize this is effecting SO much of my life. Even in my relationships, I don’t go out to eat because there’s not much I’ll eat, I can’t really find legit meals to cook for me and my partner, and as far as weight loss goes that’s been a beast to do.
Who do you even go to for things like this? Is it even workable?

I’ve been struggling to maintain a low carb diet while trying to hit 2000 calories/140 grams of protein for two reasons: 1) it’s not affordable. I can’t currrntly 50+ dollars weekly on groceries while being a student. 2) I’ve realized I’m a picky eater! I dislike/cannot eat eggs, peanuts, bananas, cauliflower and pork. I don’t really enjoy seafood either but have been forcing myself to stomach it.
I’ve been trying to develop flavorful recipes as I don’t want to have to just eat straight up ground beef and seafood everyday (most online I have found are basic and/or under seasoned).
I’m just too used to non bland foods that a lot of cheap low carb recipes revolve around. I want to enjoy eating not just use it as a tool for health. Mostly snacking honestly speaking, as I’ve never been a huge consumer of meat.
Can I get some assistance on what I can do to meet my goals while staying low budget? I’d like to know if I’m being unreasonable or not too.

My 14mo (80something percentile) has always been a pretty good eater, but lately I feel like his appetite has been huge! I know they say that toddlers his age will stop when he's full but I'm wondering if he's eating a bit too much.. when I compare with sample meal plans online seems like its more, so I'm trying to realistically gauge how other kids his age eats.
For example, today he ate: Morning: a small cup of overnight oats Lunch: steamed potatoes, chicken, and veggies (the daycare he goes to has a healthy baby/kids catering so I assume the portions are based on age) Afternoon snack: banana/mandarin, 3 plain rice waffles, steamed green beans, (but if we're out he'll also have bits of what we're having) Dinner: rice with oven roasted salmon (had seconds!), one beef and broccoli croquette, steamed brussel sprouts, a small Gerber milk cookie.
He also drinks 4oz of cow milk 2-3 times a day. He doesn't seem to be hungry after meals but I also feel like he would eat more if we serve it to him
