What's Your Quarantine Food?

During this period of social distancing, I try to support small home-based businesses.  I try them out at least once.  If I like it, I try my best to be really supportive.  Here are my 2 favorites:

Risa's Homemade Cakes.  I must have ordered their chocolate cake 5 times.  It is so simple yet so delicious.  It is the chocolate cake from my childhood.  It is very affordable too.  I can actually make myself a good chocolate cake too. But, enjoy cakes more if I didn't have to make them.  

Tetcha's Mediterranean Grilled Chicken.  This is a neighbor's business that I supported several times.  We order from them if I don't feel like making a meal.  I recently discovered a recipe that makes a close copy of Tetcha's grilled chicken.  It is easier to buy.  

What made me like them more was the ease of transaction.  I place an order via FB or Viber then I pay via mobile banking.  My order will be ready for delivery or pick-up.  

How about you, what is your go-to quarantine food?

We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
