それなりに長く生きていても、世界にはまだまだ知らない食品がいっぱいあって、目利きのプロが買い付けてはるばる日本へ運んでくれ、それを料理人が美味しく仕上げてわたしたちの食卓に出されるんですね。遠い異国の風に思いをはせながら、いただきます。

 

Even though I have lived a reasonably long time, there are still many foods in the world that I do not know about, which are bought by professionals with a good eye and brought all the way to Japan, where they are then prepared by chefs to be served on our tables. We eat them while thinking about the winds of distant foreign lands.
