In my childhood, playing make-believe was my favourite pastime. I loved being the sous-chef and serve fake tea (with a dash of milk) to the other ladies. Like everything else back then, it was amazing!

Recently, in the internet’s wonderland, I stumbled upon a Japanese food concept that had me reminisce about these childhood pleasures again. (And made adulting go for a toss, but that’s beside the point.)

Intrigued? The YouTube channel, Miniature Space (and many others like it), shows the art of miniature cooking. Only, this time the food is very much real.

While my juvenile cooking sessions were limited to only making tea, these guys prepare french fries, sushi and even bake delicious cakes!

Here are some of the coolest items prepared by Miniature Space:

Dumplings (from the sheer size of the hand, you can gauge dimensions of the vessels)

Cheese Dak-galbi

Chocolate Cake (the only chocolate cake that might add 3 calories, give or take)

Chocolate Fudge

Sushi

Sweet Potato Fries

If you tired of big portions, this miniature food is your answer.
