I'm Japanese, but restaurants in my hometown served the most sanitized versions of California rolls. I grew up eating a lot of Japanese food at home that my parents or grandparents made.

I've always enjoyed doing dishes. Maybe it was the fashionable yellow gloves that I loved so much. It's weird, I know, but I find cleaning cathartic.

I'm fascinated by Japanese cuisine.

My favorite kitchen was the Japanese and the Italian kitchen.

I learned that you don't take dishes from the table to the dishwasher; you have to rinse them first. I think that's stupid because I don't go out in the back yard and hose off before taking a shower.

I like cooking, but I think someone else ought to do the dishes.

I cook everything. I love Mediterranean cooking, I love Asian cooking. I do lots of Japanese noodles.

One thing I've never said in my whole life is, 'Let's have dinner at a Japanese restaurant.'
