Food Vibes: Current Dopamine Food (Patreon)

Listen...I am very passionate about food 😅 There's an event I don't want to go to? Nah. But there's free food there...okay I'm in! Last year at TwitchCon Amsterdam I had zero intentions of going to the Partner party; I didn't know what to expect, I didn't know if I'd know anyone there or find anyone I knew if I did, and just...so peopley! But then I met up with JoeyCollinsUK and he introduced me to ihazabeard, another partnered music streamer. And when he asked if I was going to the Partner party, I was like "pffft nahh man, I'm good. No thank you." But then he said "Really? There's free food and drinks" and just like that, "Get in bitches, we're going to a Partner party" 🙈 And when I got there, I grabbed a Pepsi and sat myself down in a chair facing the food tables and literally just waited for them to be finished putting it out. I was the first person to the tables. Got a plate full of food, ate it all, ate some apps that were going around on trays, and left 😂

So with that being said, I thought I would give you a peek into my food vibes. Starting with my current dopamine food that is always the vibe 😎 (for now)

Most of you probably know that my favourite comfort food is just a classic grilled cheese sandwich. I just love how homey it feels. And with a small tomato soup? 🤤 Perfection. It always hits the spot. So grilled cheese: obvious safe food 💁‍♀️

BUT my dopamine food right now, the food that I can eat whenever and could genuinely eat for every meal and not just not be sick of it, but have it be just the perfect happy food, a happy meal if you will 😂 is: beef donburi. Specifically yakiniku don from You Don Ya 😍 It's like $35 per order, but it lasts me two meals, so...it's worth the splurge from time to time 😅🙈 At some point, I'm sure this will change, but for now? I'll take as much as I can reasonably get, thank you 👈😎👈

Why is it this specific? I do not know. The brain wants what the brain wants. And the tummy. Also, I have found that restaurants that don't specialize in don buri just don't do nearly as good a job. The flavour profile is off, or the rice to meat ratio is a travesty... either way, just not the same.

And before anyone asks: no, it's not on TreatStream. Unfortunately for me, the restaurant is only on UberEats, and in Canada I can only do TreatStream through SkipTheDishes 🙄 Maybe next time my brain/tummy will choose something more convenient...or cheaper. Cheaper would be good, too 😅
