Yuki's Passion 1 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 My best mate in the States has been brewing beer and wine since college...he was a microbio major and loves it. I brewed beer for about 3 years but not in Japan. Tokyu Hands used to sell beer making kit but the selections were shite. Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Not worth it tsonda when you can 3 litres of Aussie red for 1600 Yen. Besides, you'd never get decent grapes in this climate. Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I dont usually buy cheap wine, unless I need some for cooking. yea, its too humid here for wine making. Link to post Share on other sites
SirJibAlot 0 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Soubs, Thanks for the cakes - My wife got the mail that it's on the way! Big thanks for the 'bonus' cakes as well, looking forward to getting them. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I had a cake for breakfast this morning. Cake and coffee, with a piece of cold pizza. It was really good actually. (And I thought I would save this thread the indignity of being pushed onto the second page). Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Brilliant. I can dance downstairs. The chiropactor has fixed my back. It's the first time in 10 years when I can move freely. Very happy. Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Awayuki melts in the mouth. It's a sponge cake. The process and the product are patented. There's only one place you can buy this. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 yeah, that's exactly what I was talking about soub Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 The best sponge cake I have had was my grans. Magic it was I don't know what she did but it was just superb. I think she told me she had been baking the same recipie for something crazy like 50 years or something - a fair bit of practice. I liked the cakes I tried in Japan. But this is a Snow in Japan topic, so we must be very careful to stick on topic Link to post Share on other sites
SirJibAlot 0 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 This cake was awesome and I scored some major points by bringing some to the office for the OL. I wouldn't call it sponge, more like a soft snoball, hence the name....Soubriquette must make some serious bank with this product... Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Just got back from the airport. Sent off the girl that has been helping me at work for the last 15 months. What a marvelous girl. I'll miss her for the warmth of her personality; the smiles she brought to everyone she met. Hope she doesn't get too bored in California. Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Morris Dancer 0 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I don't think many people find California to be boring, sure that won't be a problem. This thread seems to be slowing down. Perhaps a conclusion has been made on the subject. Link to post Share on other sites
