Reader comments
There is a sense of leisure and tranquility, and the emotional description is very delicate, but I don't quite agree with Japanese values [laughs awkwardly]
This book uses simple stories and plain language to tell the various connections between food and life. It reminds me of "The Lonely Gourmet", which also shows the various aspects of life through the depiction of food. The stories in the book are very real, just like what happened around us, making people feel the same. Moreover, the author's characterization of the characters is also very delicate, allowing me to deeply understand the inner world of each character. Overall, this is a very warm and healing book, worth reading.
It is very healing. It talks about daily life things like a good friend talks. Of course, it also reveals a touch of sadness. People will grow old, the past is gone, and the people who accompany them will leave...
Therefore, food should be tasted while it's hot, and life should be lived in the present.
I feel like every story has some regrets. Maybe life is full of regrets [almost crying] [almost crying]
The articles in this book are really well written
Each dish has its own story, which may not be spectacular, but it hides a taste that only we can know.
My heart feels warm, I like it
It looks good, why do you have to enter five words? Two words are my true inner evaluation, haha
Food decorates life, warm little recipes reflect the little stories in life, memories roll in the recipes and are reflected in the taste, we are surrounded by love❤️
Reading is very healing, even if it is sad
Every short story is very good, except for the second one, which has a sad color. The Japanese style is obvious, but it does not affect the beauty. The story is well integrated with the specific food.
