Today is a super excellent menu. The seaweed salad was alright. A little slippery for my liking, but it tasted quite nice and the corn gave it some texture. The pork croquette very delicious and perfectly fried. It had a nice balance of meat to potato in the filling as well which was very enjoyable. The stew today is a winter vegetable cream stew and it was pretty good. It was creamy and hot and had a light flavor, with broccoli having the most prominent flavor among the rest of the vegetables. Great lunch today. Bring on more stew!

Japanese style food has been popping up a lot recently!  Today is fish in bonito sauce and kinpira with sweet potato soup as well.  Quite the meal today.  The kinpira is sweet and earthy with good flavors from the sauce as well as the gobo.  It also has a nice sweetness which is enjoyable.  Kinpira is really good in school lunch.  The sweet potato soup was similar to the miso soup or tonjiru we get often, but has sweet potatoes in it.  The sweetness and bright color of the satsumaimo give it a nice extra layer of flavor and color.  Today’s fish is pretty good and the sauce is really nice.  I love bonito and the smoky goodness of the sauce adds a lot to the fish.  Delicious meal today!

Back from the weekend and its Nikujaga and Natto!  I vanquished my natto quickly, but I think today’s mustard or soy sauce or both was a little different.  It was a slightly different color after mixing it up.   Then I jumped into the salad to cleanse my chopsticks and mouth.  The jako salad is alright with a slightly fishy taste in addition to the dressing.  The nikujaga is the main event today for sure though.  I adore that great taste and super hearty vegetable content.  The little pops from the ginger which was added in was a nice change of pace as well.  Happy for the full meal and absolutely adore the nikujaga!  Thank you!

Today there are a few new menu items which is nice!  We have a new interesting asparagus sautee as well as a spinach gratin.  Also pork and beans soup with bread and a new style of chocolate pate/cream as well instead of marshall beans.  The sautee is quite delicious and the asparagus and corn are a nice juicy and crunchy pair with nice flavor.  The meat is a nice touch as well.  The gratin is an interesting little dish.  It looks like a patty, but it was baked into an oval, but is still quite soft on the inside.  The creamy spinach has some cheese as well and it is very good.  It has a ton of great flavor and is very satisfying.  This is something I would expect to see at a bakery or a café.  The pork and beans was wonderful and super hot.  It was hearty and delicious and perfect with the bread as well.  The new chocolate sauce was pretty much straight up chocolate sauce with 1.5mg of iron in it.  It was super sweet and great on the bread and with milk as well.  Quite a change from marshall beans and reminds me that marshall beans isn’t actually chocolate haha.  Super nice treat.  A really interesting and delicious menu today!

Ginger Stirfry and shrimp ball soup. The stirfry tastes great and has a nice ginger flavor. The meat and onions in particular were cooked really well and go great together. The shrimp ball soup was excellent as well and super hot too. I love the juicy shrimp balls which give it a really big burst of flavor. Simple lunch, but very good and quite satisfying.
