「マクロビ」とは...+スペルに注意しましょう

You probably know that I'm a vegetarian. Because of that, eating out in Tokyo is hard. Everywhere, dishes usually contain at least bonita soup base, if not bits of ham, soup stock made from chicken, or something else.
  • bonita soup base = だし
  •  soup stock 出汁 だし (from jmdict)
One type of place that I can often find something to eat at is macrobiotic restaurants.

Eijiro on the Web says this:
  • macrobiotic

    【形】
    1. マクロビオティックの、長寿食{ちょうじゅ しょく}の、健康食{けんこう しょく}の、 自然食{しぜんしょく}
    2. 長寿{ちょう じゅ}の、長命{ちょうめい}の、寿命{じゅ みょう}を延ばす
  • macrobiotic diet

    長寿食{ちょうじゅ しょく}
There's more on macrobiotic diets here:

It's a shame that this restaurant in Tokyo made the effort to make this English brochure, but then didn't check the spelling in the headline well enough.
× What is macrobiotic cookign?
◯ What is macrobiotic cooking?
A simple spell-checker would have caught this mistake. Don't do the same thing in your writing!
