In 1990, her delicacies were her grandma's lard bibimbap and the green tongue from the canteen. It was a childhood of coexistence of scarcity and contentment.
In 2000, her world was the Teppanyaki at the school gate, the 50-cent spicy strips, and her noisy and sincere youth.
In 2010, her world was one of "dark cuisine" in college, instant noodles in a rental house, and a growth of independence and confusion.
In 2020, her comfort is the taste of hometown in the takeaway app, and the taste of her own childhood that is recreated for her children.
Times are changing, and we have moved from "eating full" to "eating well", but deep in our taste buds lives a version of ourselves that will never grow up.
