MARSHALL BEANS!  Excellent lunch day today of course.  The beans salad is amazing and is a crunchy hearty start to my meal.  The broccoli makes sure there is plenty of dressing since it doesn’t stick to the beans very well.  The spanish omelette, which I will call a quiche, was great.  I like the potatoes adding a bit of different texture from the eggs.  The onion soup is amazing as well.  There are so many onions finely sliced into this soup and their sweetness really gives a nice flavor with the bits of meat in it.  The cabbage acts as a nice base and makes for a hearty and crunchy bite along with the yummy soup.  I use some of my bread roll to clean the salad dressing and some to soak up some soup so I can get a nice ratio for my chocobread.  The ratio of marshall beans to bread must be good or else it’s too dry.  Lastly, the pear jelly was quite nice and a good refreshing end to the meal.  Such a great meal today!

Last lunch of the Month! Kakiagedon and ‘vegetable day’. Kakiage is my absolute favorite so hopefully school lunch kakiage is good! The Salty Cabbage salad was excellent and the sesame oil really took it to the next level adding such flavor and umami to the natural sweetness of the cabbage. Also I don’t think I have seen this salad in school lunch before/recently so it is a super great addition to the line up. The Sawaniwan soup is an old favorite as I love the rooty earthy flavors and the salty soup. The kakiage was good! Crunchy, some good friend flavors, and a nice texture from the vegetables inside as well. The sauce on top is wonderful of course, but I think I used too much sauce and it overpowered the natural flavors of the kakiage. Such a great menu today and it’s only Tuesday! All this week is great delicious meals for lunch so I am excited. Thank you!

Goya Champloo today.  Always an interesting item.  We got shumai today as well and the first thing I do is put them in my soup to warm them up.  Classic technique!  The goya was good and any bitterness is paired well with the meat and eggs which were flavored to match it perfectly. The harusama soup has a very gentle flavor compared to the powerful goya champloo and it’s a nice little break from all that strong flavor.  After a couple minutes in my soup, my shumai have warmed up a little bit and they are delicious.  Juicy and flavorful.  The onions and pork are a great pair and make for a nice meaty satisfying bite.  Great meal today!

Meatballs, bread, and kitsune udon!  An interesting combination and a delicious one!  Ah, the ham and daikon salad is so delicious.  Seriously such a perfect match of textures, flavors, and so simple too.  The kitsune udon as well was very good.  I think the soup broth has a lot of flavor in it as well which is great.  The kitsune tofu was good, but I like it a little sweeter.  Maybe it is because I like the cup noodle kitsune so much?  It was still very juicy and delicious.  Looking at today’s menu, it would look like the udon is the main dish, but to me, it is the meatballs and bread.  Another ‘ura-menu’ technique I love is making a simple little meatball sandwich.  The meatballs were sweet and tasty and went perfect with the slice of bread as well.  It was a sweeter meatball sandwich but super good and satisfying for me.  Wonderful lunch to finish the first week of school back from break.

Curry rice and Seaweed salad!  A school lunch classic for our second school lunch after the break.  Today’s dressing tasted like it had a little bit more punch than usual which was nice and the corn is great as always balancing out the flavors and textures with some sweetness and a crunchy bite.  The curry today was truly amazing.  The summer vegetables really take it to a new place flavor and texture wise with pumpkins adding sweetness and a creamy texture and eggplants with a juicy bite too.  I was super satisfied and happy to get this meal today. Thank you!
