After two weeks of living on bourbon and donuts (okay, fine. Two and a half.) I decided it was time to kick myself into healthy gear. Pulled out favorite fresh veggies, drizzled with sesame oil, rice vinegar and a kiss coconut aminos.

And reminded myself that fast food doesn’t have to come from a drive thru.

The best part of flying into Osaka Kansai Airport: it’s cheap. Worst part: it’s on an island, so it takes about 30-45 minutes by train to Osaka city center. Once there, take an express train to Kyoto. You can skip Osaka for now and come back to it later if you have time.
