[GraceDemon]

You must have the biggest kitchen I have ever seen in a japanese home. It's a really nice one to, how'd you get so lucky? XP

Ahh I sold Cutco too. Great knives :)

[LifeInShiga]

Yeah they are! I'm glad I shipped them here!

Haha, now that I finished the video I would also like to say that I totally, 100%, agree with you on the knives make the kitchen. I know some friends who use Cutco, I use some Global knives at home. As a ex-culinary student, I can't stand cooking at a friends house who own crappy knives.

[LifeInShiga]

Yes, nothing worse than working with dull knives! It's like trying to ice skate uphill, just doesn't work!

[Pilipinoguy2k]

I love brown rice! It tastes awesome and its healthy for you.

[LifeInShiga]

VERY healthy for you!

i'm way too picky to be able to use a sauce or whatever and not know what it is.

are those cabinets high for an average Japanese kitchen?

brown rice is way better than white

[LifeInShiga]

lol, yeah, i haven't used the "unknown" sauces yet, they were left by my predecessor.

the cabinets are high for most Japanese, not sure why though.. guess they could stand on a stool. maybe they are for things that are not used very often.

brown rice is the only rice in my opinion!!

I might start a habit of commenting on everyone of your vids lol I just like them that much.

[LifeInShiga]

Wow, you answered all the questions I had. Every time I started to type a question, a second later you answered it.

I really don't have a good knife set. I've got one that gets me through. I've been thinking about all the little stuff I'm gonna have to buy and I've been thinking that it would just be easier/cheaper to buy it there... but I dunno.

Did I mention I am a mind reader? ;)

About the knives... Since I already had a set (that would cost $500 to replace), I decided to bring them instead of putting in storage.

Since you do not have any now, definitely wait until you get here. This is the land of kick ass knives, might be a little pricey, but you will end up with a fantastic set. All I can recommend is save a little money and buy a good set that will last the rest of your life.
