重要。
If you skip breakfast, you are depriving your brain and body of calories for you to work throughout the day. There is approximately four to five hours of work before lunch time. You are probably feeling tired and restless from hunger by this time. By mid-day, you will feel as if you have worked for eight hours already! And on top of that, you might be reprimanded for being 'lazy' at work.
If you eat breakfast, you will be able to keep up with the physical demands in your workplace. Refueling your body before any physical activity will refill glycogen stored in your body, enabling you to do even the most strenuous activities! Now, isn't this better? Most individuals believe that skipping breakfast will make them lose weight. This is not a very smart move. If you skip breakfast, it will make you want to grab everything (and probably anything) that is edible as soon as hunger starts to kick in. This will lead to making unhealthy food choices will contribute to your weight gain instead of weight loss.

おいしい “Oishii” means delicious in Japanese!
éĽă€‚ Rice is Japan's most important crop. It has been cultivated in Japan for over 2000 years. Its fundamental importance to the country and its culture is reflected by the facts that rice was once used as a currency, and that the Japanese word for cooked rice (gohan) also has the general meaning of "meal". The literal meaning of breakfast (asagohan), for example, is "morning rice". Japanese rice is short grain and becomes sticky when cooked. Most rice is sold as hakumai ("white rice"), with the outer portion of the grains (nuka) polished away. Unpolished rice (gemmai) is considered less delicious by most people, but its popularity has been increasing recently because gemmai is more nutritious and healthier than hakumai.
It’s noon now, and for lunch today, make some sushi! This traditional delicacy originates from Japan, the land of the rising sun! It consists of cooked vinegared rice with ingredients such as fish or other seafood. It is usually rolled up in seaweed called nori.
寿司
午餐。
The common ingredient across all the different kinds of sushi is sushi rice. The variety in sushi arises from the different fillings and toppings, condiments, and the way these ingredients are put together. The same ingredients may be assembled in a traditional or a contemporary way, creating a very different final result. 寿司有相当广泛的口感。 因为有各种各样的海鱼、 河鱼和湖鱼及贝壳类，你 能体验的美味将是无穷无 尽的，加上各种其他成分 的自由组合，惟一的限制 也许就是你的想象力。
寿司不仅仅是食物，它 更是精妙的艺术。鱼生 的美丽、色彩的和谐以 及充满创造力的拼盘组 合，使你光看到它们就 已胃口大开。

On your sushi bamboo mat, spread out 1 sheet of nori (seaweed). Cover it as thinly as you can with the rice mixture.

炒香沙嗲面
For dinner today, lets go local!
Satay is a dish consisting of diced or sliced chicken, goat, mutton, beef, pork, fish, tofu, or other meats, skewered on bamboo sticks. These are grilled or barbecued over a wood or charcoal fire, then served with various spicy seasonings. The main ingredient in the satay sauce is a roasted peanut-based paste such as peanut butter, which together with soy sauce gives it a nutty and salty taste. Several different recipes for making peanut sauces exist, resulting in a variety of flavours. A typical recipe usually contains peanut butter (smooth or crunchy), coconut milk, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and spices (such as coriander seed, cumin, etc). Other ingredients may also contain chili peppers, sugar, milk, fried onions, sesame seed, olive oil or peanut.

They are an important part of most regional cuisines within China, as well as in Taiwan, Singapore, and other Southeast Asian nations with sizable overseas Chinese populations. Chinese noodles are handmade; they are cut, extruded, peeled, pulled and kneaded.
