Recipes for goya besides chamburu?

I scored cheap goya this week and made Okinawan goya chamburu once already. Do you have a good recipe for other dishes that use goya?

    There are some interesting mentions if you search 'goya' on this site: goya tofu, goya chips, goya curry. I recently put prepared goya into some Japanese curry (at the end with the rou) and it was nice. There are 83 goya recipes on the ajinomoto recipe site - I like that you can search for specific seasonal ingredients. https://park.ajinomoto.co.jp/recipe/search/?search_word=%E3%82%B4%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A4

    I haven't tried it yet, but a while ago I bookmarked this curry: https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/bitter-gourd-curry-recipe-karela-sabzi/ Some of the ingredients are difficult to find here, though, but maybe some inspiration at least.

    @genkidesu Thanks! It's a bit of inspiration. My local import shop likely has all the South Asian seasonings. ...But they don't scoop out the stuff inside first? I'm a bit surprised at that.

Izu Islands exploration!

Genkidesu asked about Hachijojima, a place I've visited twice. Has anybody else explored the other islands in the Izu chain? What do you recommend for a solo traveler? A couple or family?

Is your locale suffering from overtourism or is it...crickets?

I've lived on the periphery of Tokyo, commuted in for some years, and finally pulled back. Is the city or region you live in crowded with tourists from abroad or is it an off-the-beaten track location? Do the claims of "overtourism" ring true to you or do you think it's overblown?

What shampoo brand do you recommend for dandruff?

I have been dealing with this dandruff situation for quite a while now and I still can't seem to figure out how to get rid of this problem. I have tried several shampoo brands/products like head and shoulders, ANGFA organic shampoo and the Honey Deep Moist Shampoo. And none of them worked so far. Some say it's because of hot shower. Well I do shower every day, but I don't use hot shower all the time. I rinse my hair thoroughly after applying shampoo and conditioner. I also tried applying shampoo every other day just to make my hair less dry but I still none of those tricks are working. If there is a product that you recommend that suits every man's budget then I would appreciate it so much.

What are the must-sees in your prefecture (beyond the big three)?

Sustainable tourism is a hot topic that some City Cost members have covered in their blogs. For those correspondents outside the Big Three - Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka - what do you recommend visitors must see in your prefecture? My home base is Chiba Prefecture. I highly recommend visitors check out Narita Omotesando to connect with Edo's past and visit Shinshoji to get a sense of the history of Japan. The adjacent city, Sakura, is another I recommend for the National History Museum and Edo to Taisho era streetscapes.
