      @@alexquintero2187 I have been eating essential foods to gain weight and build muscle at the same time. My diet is restricted and I am currently only eating foods that are rich in protein, carbs and unsaturated fat such as clean steak, fish, potatoes, brown rice, beans and eggs, including vegetables as well. I've cut out eating processed food and I am only having one cheat meal once every two weeks, sometimes I don't feel the lust to crave fast food. I agree what you said about what to eat not how much of what to eat since I'm only eating those healthy food but in a bigger portion, maybe 4-5 times a day. I'm a skinny guy with relative decent muscle but I want to gain some weight to become heavier, I'm kind of bulking but at the same time my goal is to have a good health, a decent physique is good for me. I guess I just need more time and be a bit patient, but I've done it for a month now but I still have the same weight (53kg, more or less).

    The Indo Java is run by Indonesian of Chinese ethnicity. Most of the customers are also Indonesian of Chinese ethnicity. We are very proud of our country and cultures. It's kinda ironic that while, we, Indonesian - Chinese always define ourselves as Indonesian first - never a chinese; but always treated as outsiders by most other native ethnicities.

    This video reminds me sooooo much of the Chinese-American culture of the Mississippi River Delta. The U.S. has a rich tradition of Chinese people who came to this country 150-250 years ago. It's amazing. Everyone should visit the shores and villages along the Mississippi River and eat. You've never seen anything in your life like an old, decrepit, sweet Asian-looking grandmother serving food in her shack who talks and sounds like a slow-drawl Paula Deen. It's fantastic and so is the food.
