A new month and a classic school lunch.  Today is Yakisoba.  The gobo salad was sweet and delicious and I love the flavor and crunch of the gobo.  It is wonderful and I like to use some of the sweet bread to clean the bowl of the dressing.  The dressing and the sweet bread actually go together quite well.  The yakisoba was good today as well.  It is filling and had a light flavor today.  Thankful as always for the delicious meal!

Excellent korean-style flavors in today’s lunch.  The namul was pretty good, a simple spinach salad with come carrots and bean sprouts with sesame seeds.  A nice and easy start.  The harusame soup was also quite good.  I liked it mostly for its hotness and the yummy noodles, since the flavor was quite light today, but I could taste white pepper which was nice.  Today’s main event of course is the Korean-style karaage.  It was fried perfectly and still crispy despite being cooled down which was amazing.  It actually had a little bit of spice and some nice savory sweet flavors as well.  The sauce was amazing.  A wonderful meal today that filled me up and made me happy to enjoy. Thank you!

Back at it again and the first lunch of the week is fish, salad, and soup. The salad is spinach-based with some other veggies tossed in and flavored mostly with delicious smokey bonito. It’s a kyushoku classic and a nice start to the meal. Today’s fish, hokke, is not my favorite. It has a kind of creamy oily texture and the flavor is slightly bitter to me although the nutritionist often tells me that students think it tastes sweet. I ate it quickly with my rice and moved on to the soup which is today’s MVP. It was buttery and filled with delicious vegetables and meat as well. It was flavored quite well and was very enjoyable. Today’s apple jelly was amazing and filled with apple chunks. It had more of a natural texture than jelly making it similar to apple sauce which I love. A fine meal today. Thank you!

Wonderful pasta today.  I have smelled the cooking onions all morning leading up to lunchtime while walking in the halls between classes and it was great.  The daikon, ham, and cucumber salad was excellent.  Great dressing and perfect balance of ingredients as well.  The pasta was not a let down at all and tasted wonderful. The sauce had a light sweetness, but was still salty and savory enough for me.  The little hot dogs were lovely as always.  I use some of the bread for the pasta sauce, but like to save most of it to enjoy with the yogurt and the milk. As a nice little final dessert.

Chinese menu today with happosai, spring noodle salad, and manju.  The spring noodle salad is quite delicious and tangy with sesame seeds as well.  Strips of ham give some nice flavor as well as the cucumbers, cabbage, and carrots which offer a nice crunch.  Today’s main dish is the happosai, or 8 Treasures Vegetables.  It’s a very interesting naming for a dish, but it has a ton of interesting ingredients which I think are the treasures.  Today’s was tasty and a treasure to enjoy for sure.  Today’s super treasure was the nira manju though.  The strong flavor from the nira and the meat inside the dumpling make for a very delicious treat that was enjoyable.
