Minestrone, flower veggie salad, and baked chicken!  Excellent end to the week today.  The salad was juicy, delicious, and had such wonderful flavors.  An absolute treat and one of the best kyushoku salads.  The soup was great today as well.  Nice tomato flavor, but also plenty of seasoning as well giving it a bit more kick than usual.  I think I even tasted a little garlic which is fantastic.  The baked chicken was amazing and cooked perfectly.  I made a sandwich with the sweet honey bread and it was a nice enough match.  Hearty and filling alongside the soup.  Wonderful meal!

Natto and Nikujaga!  A day of great highs and great lows for me.  The natto wasn’t too bad today, but I think that the salad on natto day is different than usual.  I recall that eating the salad cleaned out my mouth quickly, but today’s salad was more spinach based and didn’t have a strong dressing.  It did have a bit of bonito flavor though which was nice.  Today’s nikujaga was delicious as always.  I feel like I got a lot of potatoes today.  The stew broth that it comes in is sweet and delicious and the flavor of the onions really makes it so good.  Nice meal today!

Stew, Salad, and Agepan!  The daikon and ham salad was crunchy and delicious.  The stew was amazing!  Great creamy flavor and lots of nice vegetables as well.  The potatoes were great.  The Kinako agepan was delicious and tasted a little bit like peanut butter.  It was a nice dessert after the meal and great with milk.  If I didn’t have milk I might have been in trouble!  Delicious and hearty stew today!  Thank you!

Happy New Year! It’s the year of the tiger and today is the first day at school with school lunch and the start of the 3rd semester. Hayashi rice and seaweed salad with a mikan jelly dessert. Can’t ask for a more solid start than that! The salad was slippery and crunchy, with a nice tangy and slightly sweet flavor from the dressing and natural seaweed flavor. The hayashi rice was very tasty! The tomato flavor was nice and the vegetables were hot and delicious. In particular the mushrooms and green peas were delicious and added nice texture. The mikan jelly was a nice little treat afterwards and refreshed my mouth quite nicely. Lovely meal and now I am full and ready for the rest of the day, no, the rest of the semester! Thank you and let’s have a great 2022!

Christmas eve and the day of the closing ceremony for the second semester.  A SUPER Christmas themed lunch today.  Hamburg shaped like Christmas Trees, star cheese in the salad and star noodles in the soup as well as cute snowman Naruto too. The salad is one of the most delicious ones and the little cheese stars add such a great level of depth to it.  The colorful greens whites and reds also give it a real nice holiday vibe.  The soup is delicious and so cute.  I used the bread roll and made it into buns so I could eat a hamburg tree sandwich..  It was delicious.  There was also a super tasty dessert.  It was a delicious and creamy and sweet strawberry jelly and pudding with some whipped cream on top.  A super duper festive and delicious lunch to kick off the winter vacation for the students!

Yes!  Today is a delicious pumpkin stew.  The tuna salad was delicious and surprisingly hearty.  I like this salad a lot.  The omelet was tasty as well.  I liked the potatoes and onions.  Today’s main event is the wonderful pumpkin stew and it was magnificent.  The pumpkin flavor was so strong and the color along could tell you how much pumpkin was used in it.  It I delicious and I missed having yummy stew with lunch.  Wonderful meal today!

Delicious bibinba today!  The veggies are so tasty and the meat so flavorful.  It is the perfect mixture!  It is so great with rice as well.  The harusame soup is tasty and hot and nice with the bibinba too.  Last there was a sweet and cold acerora jelly which was a perfect finish to the meal.

Today is an all Japanese lunch.  The momiduke was nice and crunchy with a light sesame flavor.  The zakuzakuni was quite delicious and everything was cut into small chunks or cubes.  I like when my food comes in cubes.  This soup reminded me of oden.  The fish, iwashi, was amazing.  This is one of my favorite fish that comes in school lunch and I love the sesame and miso sauce that comes with it.  So wonderful.

Champon and hotdog day.  The champon is hot and delicious and filled with tons of ingredients.  I like the shrimp and Naruto, as well as how juicy and soft the noodles are.  Its really good.  The hotdog is pretty good and nice and smokey.  The cabbage and ketchup help balance the dryness of the bread and make a nice little meal.  Nice lunch today!

Sukiyaki and Natto day.  I eat my natto quickly and then proceed to the salad!  The salad was fresh, crunchy, and tasted sweet as well from the sesame.  It was a great palate cleanser after the natto and my mouth wasn’t sticky at all.  The sukiyaki today was amazing.  So many noodles and that sweet and savory broth is so delicious.  The tofu is slightly cooked and has a nice texture and the carrots and cabbage were great as well.  The meat was filling and tasty.  Truly a rollercoaster of emotion with today’s lunch, but it is ultimately a delicious one despite the natto.

Dosanko soup, fish, and hijiki today.  A Japanese meal.  The hijiki was good and a little sweet.  I enjoyed it.  The saba with miso was alright.  I don’t really like this fish and sauce combination very much.  Today’s main dish for me was the dosanko soup and it was amazing.  The buttery flavor of the broth and the delicious vegetables and pork make it super hearty and enjoyable.  I like it very much.  Nice lunch today!  Thank you!

Curry and rice day!  The seaweed salad that comes on most curry days is the same as usual.  I don’t really like the texture very much, but it tastes quite good.  The curry was excellent.  Good spice level today and I was surprised by how big the potatoes were.  Maybe they cut them larger or added them to the stew later because they were really big and still had fairly sharp edges!  It was great.  And a wonderful juicy sweet mikan to conclude the meal.  Perfect lunch as the weather starts to get really cold.

Karaage and sweet potato soup day!  A real nice lunch.  The salad was a simple cabbage affair with a nice sharp dressing with salty kobu which is really tasty.  The soup is hot and warm, tasting great, and the sweet potatoes add such a nice flavor and smooth texture to it.  Today’s chicken doesn’t have a special flavor like it has recently, but is just classic Japanese karaage.  It tastes great!  I enjoy having it with my rice and it was a great meal overall.  I am full and feel great.  Thank you!

Spaghetti and bean salad today with a nice mikan jelly and honey bread.  A nice menu that looks great.  The bean salad is amazing and so colorful and delicious.  It is crunchy and has lots of nice textures as well and with the dressing it has a nice unified flavor in addition to all the varied tastes from reach bean and the broccoli.  Today’s meat pasta is amazing and today’s is some of the best I have had from school lunch in a while.  The flavors are there and there is a bit more complexity besides a simple tomato and meat sauce.  The peas add a nice little extra bit of texture and I think there must be some kind of cheese or other flavor in there which takes it above and beyond.  Absolutely wonderful today.

Sanshokudon! One of the tightest and most delicious meals around. If all kyushoku menus would battle against eachother in a tournament, I believe that sanshokudon deserves to be in the top 10 for sure, if not the top 5. Today’s soup, sawaniwan has a unique and delicious flavor. Gobo and daikon give it a nice earthy base flavor and the carrots and daikon being cut so thinly and in strips give it an interesting texture as well. The sanshokudon is delicious as ever with wonderful spinach with sesame, and the delicious chicken and egg mixture. Delicious!

Today is a nice menu with meatballs, salad, and soup with bread on the side.  The flowing veggie salad was excellent and it is one of the best for both its perfect ability to soak up the dressing and still be crunchy, and the fact that the dressing is so good too.  I really like this salad.  I love to use the bread to make a meatball sandwich with the Swedish style meatballs.  The potof is quite good and filled with tons of veggies and the little sausage slices are wonderful as well. A simple but enjoyable light flavor is nice and calms down the pallet after the bright dressing from the salad or the stronger flavors from the meatballs.  The meatball sandwich itself was delicious and the meatballs are done very well.  Such a good flavor. Amazing meal today!

Ajify today with nameko soup.  I started out with the stewed kiriboshi daikon which was pretty good.  I don’t like the texture that much, but it is delicious and has an interesting flavor which is sweet and has a kind of earthy saltiness as well.  The soup as well has good flavor, but a texture I don’t care for that much.  It was nice after eating some ajifry to kind of calm down the strong sharp flavor of the sauce.  The ajifry was excellent and crunchy.  Very enjoyable!  A nice lunch today.

Cold day today!  Perfect timing for some nice hot STAMINA DON!  Kyushoku staminadon is super delicious and packed with tons of pork, onions, carrots, and other veggies.  It has such a delicious flavor and is juicy and hot.  One of the most solid lunch choices you can ask for.  Also, we got a lovely shrimp ball soup as well.  I really enjoy the light flavor compared to the powerful flavors of the stamina don.  The noodles in the soup are extremely enjoyable and the shrimp balls taste delicious and nice.  Perfect meal for a cold dreary day!

An interesting lunch today!  Today we get the ham and daikon salad which is one of the best.  The hame, daikon, cucumber, and dressing go so well together.  A crunchy masterpiece really and it is such a simple dish too.  Besides the salad we have pork and beans today as well.  It’s a hearty soup packed with lots of vegetables and has a nice tomato base.  It’s really good.  Also today is another fantastic treat – agepan with a cocoa sugar topping.  It is basically a donut which nobody will ever complain about.  The cocoa flavor was very clear to me and quite enjoyable.  I save almost all my milk to eat with the agepan making for a yummy dessert to this nice meal.
