I have always enjoyed wandering around to find the right place to shop. “Right” can mean many things and different things at different times to me. Usually good quality, good price, kind staff. My mom used to have a place where she bought some vegetables, another place for others, a place for the bread, etc. …
My last article was about the best way to store fruits and vegetables so that they last as long as possible. But what about bread, butter, eggs, spices and all other foods? Where should they be stored in order to stay fresh as long as possible? In general, it can be said that light, heat, …
Happy and healthy new year everyone from HolaTomorrow! Have you listened very closely to your body recently? In the year of the pandemic, every little cough, every sore throat, was a cause for concern. I know I’m not the only one who has felt a tiny bit under the weather for a few hours and …
I love celebrating. I enjoy the brainstorming of ideas, the planning, the DIY projects and of course the party itself, but I hate the conscious “hangover”. The next day when you pick up things that were “used” for a few hours and add up to a big trash bag (or a few). That trash bag …

After an 80km-long train ride from central Tokyo, our group of sustainable food lovers from around …
At HolaTomorrow we try to motivate and inspire others to make small decisions every day for a more sustainable world. Obviously, we know that large-scale political decisions are urgently needed. But if each of us changed one thing per day no matter how small it may appear but changed it permanently, it could have a great impact. …
I always think about the fact that, in India, the cow is a sacred animal. And that, in Ancient Egypt, the pig was revered and sacrificed to honor the Gods. Or, that in many Native American cultures, animals served as spiritual guides. I have never been a fervent carnivore. And although it may sound strange, …
One of the first friends my husband Julien and I made after moving to Tokyo was the caring and creative Miica Fran. After meeting her at our coworking space, she invited us to her first pop-up restaurant called “Eat Provence” — an intimate series inspired by the slow food and cozy lifestyle of her experience …
Miica Fran creates beautiful food with “wabi-sabi” veggies. Hola humans of the future! I welcome you to take a comfy seat at our table, taste our delicious food, drink our sparkling sake, and get to know the brave and beautiful women of Japan. Yes, I’m still daydreaming of the first of a series of delicious, …
