VegiLicious

VegiLicious Former vegan restaurant in Huntington Beach. Now building an auberge on Kouri Island, Okinawa, Japan. Akira & Ana
(359)

My wife and I come from Japan and have a big dream that one day all the people in the world will live happy & peacefully. Because the US is the No.1 or No.2 country of obesity, disease, meat consumption, and greenhouse gas emission from livestock (per person), we wanted to help better the situations for people, animals and the planet and established the organic vegan restaurant "VegiLicious" in th

is country spending $200,000 in 2013 quitting Akira's former job, the general manager of a large BBQ restaurant chain. We make healthy delicious nutritious food from scratch WITH organic ingredients and LOVE withOUT white sugar, refined salt, oil (except for organic olive oil for pan-fried items) and MSG unlike most other restaurants for your health & real happiness. Please come dine and/or order food to go so we can continue contributing to the health & real happiness of people and the planet next year, the year after and more. Since we operate the restaurant with only two of us, you might have to wait for a long time when we receive many orders in the same time frame. We always guarantee our food quality and your satisfaction, though.

VegiLicious Huntington Beach is back‼️

Japan is one day ahead of the U.S., and it is already April 1st.

Yes, this framed VegiLicious Huntington Beach fabric is actually something we brought back from the restaurant, and today we hung it in Auberge VegiLicious Kouri Island😁😉

We ordered curtains on February 2, and they were finally delivered and installed yesterday in both our home and the guest unit. However, some of them were not the right size or color, so they will need to redo those later🤣
We wonder when “later” will be…

In a tropical island setting where everything runs on island time, we believe if the owner leaves everything to the contractors without being on-site, things could end up a little off, and the place would just open as is😥

2月3日に注文したカーテンですが、昨日やっと業者が持って来て自宅と客室に取り付けたのですが、一部、サイズや色が間違っていて、後日やり直すことになりました🤣
後日っていつだろう…

たぶん、島時間の南国では、施主が現場にいないで業者に任せていたら、とんでもない仕上がりになっていて、そのまま入居したりオープンしたりしていると思います(~_~;)

Akira & Ana went to a joint market of traditional Okinawan pottery, Yachimun, to purchase additional plates for Auberge VegiLicious. They all look great❤️❤️❤️

Beechwood slatted spring beds and 100% natural latex mattresses have just arrived in the guest room at Auberge VegiLicious.

Akira & Ana are working on finishing the interior and choosing things like the bedding, and some design concepts for Auberge VegiLicious. After that, we will create our website and apply for the necessary permits and licenses, so it will probably take another few months before we open.
Guests can enjoy a beautiful sunset over the ocean from the private patio of the guest unit at Auberge VegiLicious😃🥰🌅

オーベルジュVegiLicious のインテリアやリネン、小物などをこだわりながら選んでいます。それらが終わるとホームページの作成、そして許認可の申請ですので、オープンまでまだ2、3ヶ月かかりそうです。

Akira & Ana visited several fields owned by the organic farmer we purchase from😃😄☀️
Unlike in the United States, farms in Japan are generally small in scale, but he grows vegetables using pesticide-free, regenerative agriculture in all his 50 fields scattered across northern Okinawa🥦🥕🥬🍆🫑🧅

Akira & Ana are gathering tableware for Auberge VegiLicious.
In Okinawa, there is a traditional pottery style called Yachimun, traditional Okinawan pottery, known for its earthy colors and handmade warmth.
We have decided to use Yachimun for the tableware at VegiLicious and been traveling throughout Okinawa in search of beautiful pieces😃🥰💕

アキラとアナはオーベルジュVegiLicious用の食器を集めています。
沖縄には伝統工芸のやちむんという焼き物が作られており、VegiLiciousの食器もやちむんを採用することにしました♪
沖縄中を回って、素敵な食器を探しています。

Akira and Ana have finally moved into their new home.
It took a long time—two and a half years since the design process began while we were still in the U.S., and one year and five months since construction started.
Due to island time, completion was delayed by more than six months beyond the original schedule.
It has been a long journey😅

The construction of Auberge VegiLicious itself is complete, but we still need to choose furniture and curtains, obtain various licenses and permits, and build a website, so it will likely take about three more months before opening.

アキラとアナはついに新しい家に引っ越しました。
アメリカ在住時代に設計を始めてから2年半、建設が始まってから1年5ヶ月という長い期間がかかりました。
南国特有の島時間のため、完成が納期から半年以上も遅れました。
いやぁ、長かったです (^_^;)

オーベルジュVegiLiciousの建築自体も完成しましたが、これから家具やカーテンを選んで、種々のライセンスや許可を取り、ウェブサイトを作らなくてはいけないので、開業まで3ヶ月程はかかりそうです。

The plastering of the vanity area in the guest room- shown in the video in our previous post— is now complete⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not only in this area, but on the walls of every room, our craftsmen carefully applied multiple layers of h**p charcoal, followed by a thick, traditional Japanese shikkui plaster made from 100% natural materials.

We minimized the use of chemicals as much as possible, and where their use was unavoidable, we applied h**p charcoal to neutralize them. We also embedded electromagnetic shielding sheets, reducing electromagnetic exposure to less than one-twentieth of that in typical buildings.

As a result, every space inside the building feels wonderfully uplifting and refreshing to be in 😃🥰💕

BTW, the countertop and shelve are crafted from single slabs of wood that we personally sought out from various places👍✌️

前回の投稿の動画でお見せした客室の洗面エリアの漆喰塗りが完了しました。
このエリアだけでなく、すべての部屋の壁に、下地に麻炭を何度も塗って、自然素材100%の伝統漆喰を丁寧に厚塗りしています。
化学物質を可能な限り抑え、使わざるをえないところは麻炭を塗って中和し、電磁波除去シートを埋め込んで電磁波量を一般的な建物の1/20以下に抑えてあるので、建物の中はどこも素晴らしく氣持ちのいい空間になりました♪
ちなみに、天板や棚板は私たちがあちこちで探して見つけてきた一枚板です。

The plasterer is adding patterns as they go using traditional Japanese shikkui (100% natural lime plaster), and as you can see, it turned out so beautiful😍🥰💕

左官職人さんがこうやって模様をつけながら漆喰を塗ってくれています。
ご覧のとおり、とても美しく仕上がりました♪
