To every asian chef or hobby cook that may ever visit my little site here (if so at all…), you’ll have to be very strong now. This is actual footage of a european (german) amateur cook (aka me) wrapping gyoza (japanese dumplings) at home.

My favourite Kitchen Cheat Sheets
Here are the few cheat sheets / info images (from the millions you can find on the net) that I really used and that I really learned something from. I hope this helps a little. Categorized:

To whomever likes Science-Fiction, respectively Cyberpunk, these are set Books.
To me, William Gibson (de|en) is one the most influential Sci-Fi Authors of our time.
