Mata Tabetai Journal

Mata Tabetai Journal is a private meal journal for saving dishes you made before, how you made them, and how they went.

When you want to cook a birthday or seasonal dish again, look back at its photo and notes to remember the ingredients, seasoning, and what your family liked. It is made for your own review, not for posting to an audience.

Good for

• Remembering how you made a dish last year
• Finding meals your family enjoyed and want to eat again
• Using reactions about seasoning or portions the next time you cook
• Keeping food photos, recipe links, and notes for next time together

What you can record

• Dish name and date
• Photos and videos
• Notes (ingredients, method, reactions, and what to change next time)
• Tags
• A five-point rating for how much you want to eat it again

On days without a photo, the dish name alone is enough. You never have to fill in every field.

Features

• Add, edit, and delete dishes
• Search by dish name, notes, or tags
• Save photos and videos
• Record entries offline
• Reminders so the habit does not slip
• Sync across devices when signed in
• Back up and restore your data
• Switch between Japanese and English

Storage and privacy You can use the app without signing in. In that case your records and photos stay on the device only.

Create an account and sign in, and your records sync so you can see them from another device. Whether to sync is your choice.

There is nothing public here. What you record is never shown to other people, and there are no follows or comments.

Price Free to use. No ads.

Use it as your private journal for the meals you want to remember and make again.
