    Hunger (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Welcome to Simple Supper.I have always been curious about my insatiable hunger. A deep rooted appetite that forever craves a sense of belonging. Perhaps it is in search of home that I keep coming back to the kitchen and cooking.Birds tweet aloud all morning and all afternoon. The washing machine in the kitchen beeps needy for the well-worn towels to be hung on the washing line.

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Welcome to Simple Supper.I used to frequent a small Japanese-style restaurant in a buzzing neighbourhood of Hongik University known as Hongdae, in which they sold a dish of buttered corn cooked on a hot plate topped with an egg and mysterious green sprinkles.
