A full-on review of "13 reasons why" School shootings, suicide, deportation, drug addiction, rape, riots, politics, this is one hell of a loaded show with a very big hard-to-swallow pill. I really wish that no kid goes through all the things the kids in this show went through, although the harsh reality is that many do. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1837492/mediaviewer/rm2472754176/ Among the many things I loved about the series, the one thing that stood out for me was the…

Attack on Titans - A cycle of manipulation. As we approach the end of this marvelous series we unfold more secrets about the history of the titans, the Eldian people, as well as humanity as a whole. The story is getting incredibly complicated and Eren's deathlike grip on becoming the Messiah to save the eternity of mankind isn't helping. But as I sit and stew over the past episodes and grit my teeth waiting for the next episodes to be released, I realized a few things that…

Chocolate fondant, oh, Chocolate fondant! Is it just me or do you also associate a particular flavor with a very specific mood? Reminiscing of that flavor turns into longing, longing turns into craving, craving turns into obsession, and obsession turns into critique. When I think of a Chocolate Fondant it takes me back to my training years where my friends and I would finish our gyno rotations and end up in an open-roof restaurant across the street. Each of us had one very…

Date night gone wrong... Going to the Counsellor on a weekend night without a prior reservation is like going to the corner store and placing a bet on a horse called Polio. You have no business betting if you visit the corner store especially on a horse called Polio. It is a manifestation of the stars never aligning. But then again, in some unknown galaxy far far away, no matter how the stars have maneuvered, there must be stars that did align. So yes, with a little bit of…

The Most Delicious In The City - Menya Musashi! The obsession with Ramen may have well begun when the TV still had "cable" channels and Thursday afternoons were the most exciting day of the week after coming home from school. Back then I didn't know that the cartoons aired were called "anime", and the delicious food they ate from bowls was called ramen. There is a good chance I would e sitting on the floor and drooling over a good bowl of animated ramen. Only years later…

Everyone Loves Ted Lasso - Review! **"Be Curious and Not Judgemental"** A slogan among many of the unexpected adages by Ted Lasso. A character built for comedy, used for ads, and finally landed itself on the big screen and won all our hearts. Almost 8 years back this profoundly American character was adopted by NBC to generate ads that would connect with the American audience to the very foreign football. The ads did extremely well, to the point that everything Ted Lasso was…

Amato - Beautiful Restaurant I Found Outside The City!! Do you like watching the birds fly when you eat or do you prefer privacy during meals? Weird question, right? You may have noticed restaurants either have big open windows that look outside or else have the glasses covered up. The smarter ones play it safe by having them both. Having a seat that faces the window or the wall is just as important as the food quality. Small things like a leaf for garnishing turns a simple…

Twitch - With AP Build is Strong!? *"Rust is like a more delicious mold."* The nasty little sewer rat, Twitch, has found a beautiful corner in my heart to ferment in. Twitch's repugnant quotes and eerie voice just adds that much more *zang* to his entire lore. He is supposed to be a vile character from the sewers with an unsatiated taste for nothing good. And playing him with Ability Power (AP) instead of his more suited Attack Damage (AD) makes him exactly that -…
