Mother's cooking is the best for any people. My favorite restaurant is NAGOMI DINING in Kochi Japan. 高知 和ダイニングの惣菜
When I go back to my parent's home, of course I enjoy my mother's cooking and I really like it.But my mother sometimes purchases food from a mother's cooking shop because their food is delicious, healthy and tasty.
