#RoadTo50Cuisines has been years in the making — a personal quest to explore the world through food 🌍🍴
I started this to connect with cultures, one dish at a time.

Hakata Area, Fukuoka
I don't exectly remember the names of the restuarants I visited here. But, the food was amazing.

Tonkotsu Ramen + Gyoza + Seafood Platter + Sashimi. This is the kind of eating where you stop checking the time.

Ichiran Ramen, Fukuoka

Ichiran has the best Tonkotsu in Fukuoka- which is saying something as Fukuoka invented it. One of the best ramen chains on the planet, and they're everywhere in Japan. You cannot leave without trying it.

Now Fukuoka. And this one is personal.

Japanese Mother's Cooking Class, Fukuoka.
I made Okonomiyaki, Tempura, Tori no Teriyaki, Nabe, Tamagoyaki. FIVE dishes, with my own hands, in someone's home kitchen.

Yes, I made them. They still count.

Then Tokyo.

Tsukiji Koji-gashi Senryo, Tsukiji Market.

Seafood breakfast bowl. Salmon, tuna, negitoro, uni- in a wooden box ! For breakfast!

[Dan Gertsacov @dangertz]

Ginza Kagari, Chuo City.

Tori Paitan Ramen. This has a creamy chicken broth, clean and delicate, nothing like the heavy hit of tonkotsu.

Japan has a ramen for every mood and every meal.

First stop wasn't even Fukuoka. It was Narita Airport.

Tomita, Narita Airport. Yes- it startes before you step out of the airport!

Tsukemen- Thick, chewy noodles served with a rich broth. Dense, intense, almost sauce-like. And this is at an airport.

On a recent visit to Japan, I was shocked by the variety in their cuisine. Here are some restaurants I think you absolutely must try 🇯🇵🍜 (thread 👇)

I've cooked in a lot of kitchens. This 300-year-old Bavarian one tested me differently.
Ep 1 of 50 Kitchens.
Shane McMahon, Asam-Schlössl, and four dishes I won't forget. 🇩🇪🔥

I flew 10,000 miles to Australia… and it completely caught me off guard 🇦🇺

This one turned into way more than just a trip 👀✈️

Rugby madness. Unreal food.

Indonesian food really lived up to the hype. If you haven't tried the local flavors here yet, you’re missing out. 10/10 would recommend! 🥘🔥 #Indonesia

Winter is here, and so are my memories of this awesome trip to Quebec.

Skiing on Mt. Tremblant? I definitely wouldn't say no to that right now!
