Showing bread who’s boss

breadI’ve started to get a bit antsy regarding the — let’s face it — blandness of a lot of the food options here in Nippon.

I therefore decided to spice things up by getting medieval on the corner supermarket’s cheese demi- baguette, or チーズフランス (“Cheese France”) as the locals call it, by throwing some jalapeños on it and popping it into the old toaster oven — or “oven toaster” as it’s for whatever reason referred to in Japanese. Hrm…

In any case, my pimped-up bread rocked. Yup.

  1. No baked beans on toast?!

  2. “oven toaster”

    I never got that either and it bothers me more than it should…:(

  3. I’ll have to make a post on my Japanese Nachos… you will be hooked…

  4. After being back in the States for over a month, I now have a healthy appreciation for the blandness of some foods here.
