Food Maestro: Japanese Stewed Pork Belly (Buta No Kakuni)
http://foodmaestro.blogspot.com/2012/07/buta-no-kakuni.html
Sunday, July 22, 2012. Japanese Stewed Pork Belly (Buta No Kakuni). Buta No Kakuni is Japanese Pork Belly Stew. I want this to be a one dish meal eaten with Japanese rice in a single bowl. The pork belly is very tender with a tinge of sweetness from the sauce and melt in the mouth sensation. It is different from the Chinese "tau yew bak". 1 big knob of ginger, grated or minced. Some spring onion, cut to 2 inches long. 2 to 3 tbsp thick black soy sauce. 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup Japanese Sake. 3 to 4 tbsp Mirin.

Chennai Tourist: St. Thomas Mount

The Holy Apostles Convent. Come here for the view. You can even have a snack and tea while you enjoy it as there is a tea place here. There are more statues like this all over the place. I actually didn't shoot many pics as my camera developed a zoom problem. The view from the top. Another view from the top. Actually you can see the Chennai airport from here and watch take-offs and landings. Most people crowd around for that alone. But this place is much more than an airport view point. With simple money...
