I just realized today that this week is ‘World Menu Week’ for school lunches. That makes sense. Today’s lunch is an homage to what school lunch was like when Japan first began the school lunch program. A simple meal of momizuke, grilled fish, and miso soup with flavored seaweed on the side. The momizuke was delicious, crunchy, and fresh! The soup was quite flavorful and tasty. The aburaage was juicy and salty. The nori was a nice addition to the rice as well adding some sweetness. I also really enjoyed the salmon as well. It went great with the rice and was quite tasty. Wonderful meal today. Thank you!

Another new menu today!  Daal (beans) curry and naan bread with a cauliflower salad.  The salad was excellent.  Reminding me of the flowering veggie salad, but this has cheese and some tunafish in it as well.  Very good.  The curry was great as well.  When Indian style curry comes up in kyushoku it has a different base flavor and is a nice change of pace.  The spiciness was decent and it had plenty of beans as well which were quite enjoyable.  I thought the naan was ok.  An excellent lunch and both the salad and curry were awesome!  A meal I would love to eat again!

Another rare and interesting menu item today! Ruurohann. An interesting dish of ground meat and stewed vegetables. Today’s daikon soup was quite good and had a fair amount of flavor and delicious texture from the abura age as well. The ruuroohan was amazing and the meat and bamboo shoots were delicious and had a sweetness, but also another flavor I couldn’t catch, but reminded me of fish like squid. Super delicious and extremely easy to eat and great with rice as well. I wanted to keep eating and before I knew it I had finished it all! I really hope that we can get a chance to eat it again soon. Lastly, today’s dessert was milk pudding, which was sweet and tasty. Really a nice and creamy dessert to finish the meal. I am very full and very happy! Thank you!

Interesting and new menu item today!  The Locomoko!  This is a famous dish in Hawaii.  It is a fried egg on a hamburg steak on some rice.  Seeing it in school lunch is quite exciting!  I tried the soup first and it is a simple cabbage and carrot soup with a few little bits of pork sprinkled in to add a bit of flavor to the broth.  Not bad.  The lokomoko sauce was actually pretty good too.  I tasted a mix of ketchup and katsu sauce.  The lokomoko itself was actually really good.  I wanted a bit more sauce, and of course it would be way better if it was hot, but it was good!  The hamburg was pretty meaty and big and the egg was cooked in a perfect circle.  How do they do that?  Today’s lunch was new, and interesting, and unique.  I am happy to try a different menu and was really surprised today which was exciting and fun.  I look forward to more new menu items!  Thank you!  I would say the lokomoko was a success today.

Its snowing today!  Its lovely outside, but very cold too.  Today’s lunch is spaghetti and cole slaw with bread and chocolate pate on the side.  The cole slaw was crunchy and sweet from the mayo.  The spaghetti was hot and delicious, and had a sweet flavor as well, but I tasted a little smokiness too maybe.  Tough to say, but it is still very good.  The pate was tremendous and super chocolately and delicious.  Perfect with milk and the bread, I made a little chocolate bread kind of snack and enjoyed it at the end of my meal.  Very tasty and a lovely end of the week. Thank you!
