MEIDIYA SNACK ATTACK – PLUM AND SHISO FLAVOUR KAKI NO TANE -WARNING REALLY ADDICTIVE

Hi there

Who doesn’t like Japanese rice crackers, it is something like a stable food for me, haha.. note how I called it food and no longer snack, I just loves the great variety it is available, and for my husband, it seems like he has his own calling.

MEIDIYA JAPANESE SUPERMARKET SNACKS CRAZE – BOURBON SPINACH CHIPS

Hi there

Lately I have been visiting Mediya Japanese Supermarket very often, because I have been hunting on Japanese snacks ever since I started my Zumba classes. Talk about trying to compensate all the calories, haha 🙂

Spinach Chips

While my son and me were browsing at the rice cracker section, he was asking me if he can get some potato chips, so instead of potato chips, I offered the “green chips”, looking sceptical but can’t resist when it comes to chips, he said he wanted to try it.

Spinach Chips

So there we tried this interesting spinach chips, taste wise, although it sound much more healthy but I also find it on the saltier side, definitely goes down very well with a glass of icy soda.

Hi there

Most people know about the Ippudo ramen at Mandarin Gallery, but do you know they also sell their Ippudo Hot Sauce at Meidiya? I chanced upon them when I was doing my grocery there, and immediately snap it up, because it says Ippudo Hot Moyashi Sauce. Which is to say Ippudo Hot Sauce for Bean Sprout.

Since it says bean sprout, so I decided to make a salad out of it, I used below ingredients :

  • Bean sprout x 1 back (heads and ends peeled)
  • Chives x 1/4 bunch
  • Shabu Shabu Pork x 1 pack

Ippudo Hot Sauce
