What day is it today?
All the apps except “SeaArt AI” came out perfectly with mapo tofu! “SeaArt AI” doesn’t seem to understand mapo tofu, so it always outputs pancakes. What’s this??? I was wondering.
The expressions on “ChatGPT IMAGE” and “Midjourney”‘s faces are great, aren’t they?
April 20th is “Sichuan Cuisine Day”.
The Sichuan Festival Executive Committee and the China Tourism Representative Office in Tokyo established this day in 2019 (Heisei 31) to promote authentic Sichuan cuisine in Japan. The reasons given for the establishment of this day include the fact that the number 4 is the number four in “Sichuan,” the division of 4 and 20 into 80, which contains the number eight, which is considered auspicious in China, and that 80 is pronounced “ba shi” in Chinese, which is the same pronunciation as the Sichuan dialect expression meaning “very delicious.”

A surreal close-up.
The dish is a large rectangular plate of cubed tofu and rice, completely covered in deep reddish brown, savory mapo tofu.
The tofu is obviously browned and tender, with bits of meat visible throughout.
The rice underneath is a creamy white color, well-cooked and fluffy, and appears to have a little sauce on it.
The woman has a satisfied look on her face as she takes a bite, her mouth wide open. Her eyes are fixed on the food, and she holds the spoon she uses to eat.
She is dressed casually, like a college student.
The background is a Chinese restaurant with a large menu hanging up on the wall.
The lighting emphasizes the food and the woman's face, with soft highlights.
The focus is on the center of the woman's face and the food, enhancing the contrast between the food and the dark background. Food photography style.Summary of what day it is today: April 20th
