Dosanko Soup day!  Today’s salad is kinpira gobo.  I love gobo for its lightly crunchy texture and sweet earthy flavor.  The dosanko is kind of a savory soup with many ingredients famous in Hokkaido.  It is super good and one of my favorite soups.  The fish today was also very well done and the flavor of the miso was delicious.  Perfect with rice and a very light flavor as well.  Nice lunch today.

Curry day!  I am excited for today’s jelly honestly.  The seaweed salad was slimy, but good and had a nice fresh flavor as usual.  The sweet corn and crunchy cucumbers save the texture for me personally.  The curry today was very good and the potatoes were cut quite large making for a nice big hot bite.  Also, today the curry was on the spicier side which was appreciated.  On a hot and humid day like today the curry is delicious, but I started to sweat a little!  Today’s jelly, though, was a perfect finish after the curry.  The honey and lemon are a match made in heaven and absolutely great as a cool jelly.  I wish mine was still more frozen, but it is a hot day and there is nothing you can do about it.  I got one or two really nice frozen bites which were perfect.  Nice lunch to kick off the week!

Spaghetti day!  I love school spaghetti, it is sweet with just enough savory flavors to have a nice balance.  Today’s salad is a good one too.  It is like the flowering veggie salad, but instead of cauliflower we get corn instead.  It is sweet from the corn and the vegetables soak up the dressing very well too and have a nice juicy crunch.  Today’s pasta was quite good and in particular I liked the large cut of the onions and the green peppers.  You can really enjoy the flavor of the veggies together with the sauce.  The bread and yogurt I ate at the same time so make a kind of strawberry yogurt bread.  The bread had a really nice strawberry flavor and the sweet creaminess of the yogurt paired with it well making for a nice refreshing dessert after the pasta and salad.  Wonderful lunch!

Today’s menu is hoikoro and tofu wakame soup. Hoikoro is one of my favorite items of all time for school lunch.  The soup is actually quite good and the flavor is different.  We have eaten a lot of miso soup recently so it’s a nice change of pace to get a new type of soup.  The wakame and tofu are a nice pair as well.  The hoikoro was on point and absolutely great as always.  Super flavorful and went down with rice perfectly.  I was hungry today and ate it rather quickly!  I like to save one or two bites of rice to clean my plate since the sauce with the hoikoro is really good. Finally there was a nice orange slice which was a nice tangy dessert to conclude the meal.  I ate mine in one bite!

Today is the ‘rice menu’ day with lots of foods that go great with rice.  The hijiki is quite good and I particularly enjoyed the little bits of meat in it today.  I got lucky and there were a few really big ones in there so it was great.  Today’s miso soup was also quite special and filled with many nice ingredients like potatoes, abura age, and daikon.  It was quite good and the vegetables gave it a lot of nice flavor.  Now today’s main dish, the fried Aji was excellent.  I don’t think we have gotten the aji tatsuta before and it is super good!  Great flavor from both the good fry up and also the flavor of the tatsuta as well.  Super juicy and perfect with rice because of how salty it is.  I wish I had saved more rice than I did to enjoy with the aji age.  A quite pleasant lunch, which didn’t look so good on paper (to me) but ended up being really delicious.  Thank you!
