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.

Mabo dofu day!  The namul with nira was excellent and had a strong sharp flavor.  It has a great crunch and is refreshing.  Today’s mabo was pretty good.  It was nice and hot and the tofu was juicy and enjoyable.  I could taste a little more spice than usual today I think.  Last, the shrimp shumai were good as well with a strong shrimp flavor.  Overall a filling and enjoyable lunch!  Thank you!

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!
