I want to visit one so so bad! It's one my daydreams. I somehow travel to the past, but the only thing I can do is watch and eat the food. Just travel to ancient Egypt, see what they got. Go through imperial Japan and try old style food. Visit cohokia, and on and on. I want to see what ancient people ate. We have so few cookbooks and very little information about food they considered so basic everyone knew it.

Do you currently watch Tasting History on YouTube because it sounds right up your alley if not.

It's kind of cool that his channel was the first one I got to see go from early inception (few thousand subs) to where he is now. Impressive, and honestly well deserved.

I already am, yes yes! I want to see these places in person! Which is a bit impossible!

Yeah need more money to go travel even if it isn't through time.

The money is impossible but the time travel seems a bit more impossible XD

Maybe one day. Maybe one day we can make a window to look through time and I just write down how they're making bread and stuff!
