Frenz Fries: Your Local, Makati

Are you depressed?

Why not try some of these - Slay the monsters residing in your head. Stop dwelling on negativities. Accept that all things are difficult before they are easy. Change your attitude and let go of your destructive emotions (yes you can if you will to). Stop going back to the place where your heart ran from. Try to sit in to some Appreciative Inquiry Workshop. Watch and enjoy the cheesy but funny That Thing Called Tadhana. Hold on to people who don’t only make you happy but also know how to respect you. Or just eat salmon.

Salmon contains omega-3 fatty acids that could fight depression. Actually Your Local’s “torched Norwegian salmon donburi” can do more than that. Topped with mentaiko and ebiko and sitting on a bed of flavorful shiitake black rice, the salmon has that magical power to make you euphoric. Like once you’ve tasted it, the world will go in slow motion, your heart will skip a beat or two, and for one moment you will forget the ISIS, Haiti and the ugly face of Pinhead. I swear you will never love another salmon again. Ever.
