セルフフィッシュバーガー　牛乳　かぼちゃのシチュー

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Today is another amazing lunch day. Excellent looking pumpkin stew, and a ‘make your own’ fish sandwich. Both of those items are delicious and I know before even tasting them. I started out with a fish sandwich. Although I think it is a lot of bread, the sandwich was good and the fish was nice. The tartar sauce completes the sandwich along with the cabbage. The stew was amazing. Maybe the best stew I have had with school lunch in a long time. The pumpkin flavor is warm and spicy and the vegetables are hearty and delicious. Truly a treat. A top 3 kyushoku for the stew alone! Gochisousamadeshita!

Today we have a kind of Japanese lunch I feel. Saboro don and Kenchin soup. The soup was quite nice and tasted very earthy. Recently, I feel like we are seeing taro in lunch a lot more recently. Saboro is a super yummy mix of minced chicken, scrambled egg, and edamame. It is really delicious and I love the flavoring that they give it. It is a little sweet and a little savory. I am interested to know the recipe! I’d like to try and make some at home someday. Finally, I finished the meal with the delicious yuzu jelly. It was very delicious and the yuzu flavor was quite strong. Refreshing and good. A fantastic lunch. I am a big fan of the Saborodon. Thank you.

Today’s lunch is awesome! A big salad, an interesting main dish, and a yummy soup. The ‘flower vegetable salad’ was great. It had a similar dressing to the Italian salad and it was very hearty too. I liked how the broccoli absorbed the dressing and exploded with flavor when I bit it. The potofu was delicious too. I liked the hotdog and daikon slices. The chicken cheese sandwich was my favorite today. The seasoning and flavor of the chicken was fantastic. An interesting meal, maybe with a French theme? Either way, a top 10 easily. Gochisousamadeshita!

ビビンバ　牛乳　えび団子スープ

Today is a Korean style lunch with bibinba and shrimp ball soup. I started with the soup and it was excellent. Hot, shrimpy, and juicy. The bibinba had a vegetable mix and a meaty mix with royal fern. The vegetables were steamed and lightly flavored and quite good. The meal had an amazing flavor cooked in soy sauce which was the best. I loved it. Today’s meal is a top 15! Gochisousamadeshita!

Today is a nice lunch with hamburg, gobo salad, and miso soup. All classics. I am a big fan of the gobo and the salad was quite nice. The creamy dressing is very good. Today’s miso soup was standard, but the abura age and tofu gave it a fluffy and juicy element which was nice. The hamburg was excellent and meaty and juicy. The oroshi sauce was also very delicious. I liked the onion flavor with the meat. Wonderful lunch.

Today is yakisoba and konyaku salad with yogurt and honey bread. The salad was good, but the konyaku and wakame were very slimy. It was very refreshing though. The yakisoba was good and the sauce was nice. Can’t beat it. Today’s true treat was the yogurt. It was made in Nikko I think. It is slightly less sweet than usual, but tastes very fresh. It also had a much thicker texture and was an absolute delight. It went perfect with the honey bread too. Great lunch today.

秋野菜カレーライス　牛乳　ツナサラダ

～Lunch Report By ALT～

I feel that fall has some of the best foods. Stew, nabe, etc. Today’s fall veggie curry is amazing. The tuna salad was excellent. Today’s dressing was special. I think I tasted shiso leaf in there. Curry is delicious as always and in particular I appreciated the sweet potato for its texture and flavor. Smooth, creamy, and sweet. An excellent day for school lunch. Top 5! Gochisousamadeshita!

Today is another great menu and a sign of good things to come. I love stews and school lunch stews are great. Today is ‘Macaroni nimono’, but it is a stew. The broccoli salad was creamy and sweet and I liked the crunchy cucumber. The ‘Spanish omelet’ was good. I think there was potato in it. The pasta stew was very hearty and delicious. It had a very light flavor and I could taste the onions. The rice bread was great and went well with the stew. I like the interesting texture and sweet flavor of the rice bread. It is very unique. Excellent lunch. Top 5! Gochisousamadeshita!

ごはん　牛乳　あげぎょうざ

ホイコーロー　わかめスープ

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Today is a holy day! I think horikoro is my favorite kyushoku menu item. The soup was light and had a gentle seaweed flavor. The wet crunch of the wakame was nice. The gyoza was flavored excellently and the garlicy meat filling was awesome. Today the gyoza had a darker crust and the char added some nice earthy flavors. The honorable horikoro never fails to please my palate. Today’s was even a little spicy too. I don’t know if it is the best, but it is a top 3 meal easily. Thank you! Gochisousamadeshita!

I was unable to eat school lunch on Friday sadly. I have few regrets in life, and not eating sloppy joe is one of them! Today is a very Japanese style lunch. The hijiki salad was awesome with a light sweetness. The texture was good and it was hearty thanks to the beans, pork, and tofu. I moved to the fish next and was greatly surprised by how delicious it was. Today’s flavor was garlicy and salty. The Toro aji was very nice and great with rice.Today’s menu highlighted the locally grown sato imo. I usually don’t like the mushy slimy texture of sato imo, but in today’s soup it was good. I am very thankful for all the people and plants and animals who made my lunch possible today. Thanks as always!

Mabo dofu day! Yeah! Today’s salad seems new! It’s quite good and has a nice tangy flavor that compliments the meal well. The spring roll was perfect and had a nice crunch. They tasted nice and salty with a warm filling. The mabo was great today. So much meat and tofu. With rice it is perfect. A classic kyushoku menu, but one of the best. Top 5! Gochisousamadeshita!

Today is 'rice day'. So it looks like a menu that pairs well with white rice. The kinpira is great and has a variety of textures from the vegetables, meat, and fish cake. It has a variety of nice flavors too. The sweet potato soup was a great mix of salty and sweet. The texture of the potato is nice with the soup too. The true champion of 'rice day' is, of course, the miso sanma. The yummy sauce and fish are a perfect pair and I would be surprised if anyone left any rice at all after eating it. A great meal.

ごはん　牛乳　納豆

I finished off my natto and cleansed my palate with white rice and salad. The salad was like a sponge, cleaning the natto taste and texture from my mouth and replacing it with bright ginger and delicious sesame flavors. Thank you salad. My hero, as always on natto day, is the nikujaga. So good and filled with with so many vegetables. It is always a treat.

Today is ginger stir fry and Chinese soup with an orange slice on the side. The stir-fry was excellent and the ginger flavor and plentiful vegetables were delicious. In particular, the green pepper slices added a little excitement to the mix. The tofu and egg soup was nice and the calmer flavors were a nice contrast to the stir-fry. Finally, the orange was a bright and sweet end to the meal. A Top 10 lunch today! Gochisousama Deshita.

Today is a big lunch with a lot of variety. The daikon tuna salad was filled with veggies and had a bright flavor which brought out the best in the tuna. The kitsune udon was great. Tons of proteins with fish and chicken, and the delicious juicy sweetness from the fried tofu. I love kitsune udon and today's was excellent and hearty.

Today is a very Japanese style lunch. The salad was crunchy with strong katsuo bushi flavor. The satoimo soup was quite good. The sliminess of the sato imo theickens the sou into a stew. It was mostly a salty savory soup, but I tasted a little sweetness. My favorite part of today's lunch was the fish. The sweet miso sauce on the fish is amazing and with rice it's perfect.

Quite a valiety of items today. The spinich and tuna salad is wonderful as always, with a nice sweetness from the corn. Normally there is tuna inside the little stuffed omelet but today it had ham and a little bit of cheese. It was super good and I'd like to try are fresh out of the oven. Today's main was minestrone soup. The shells and bakon stood out today in texture and flavor. My apple jelly was in perfect condition and loaded with chunks of apple.

ハヤシライス　牛乳　イタリアンサラダ

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Hayashi rice and Italian salad are always delicious. Crunchy texture and cheese-like squid are a nice combination and the dressing is great. So I researched Hayashi rice and there are 2main ideas about it's origin.

1. It is named after a person called Hayashi.

2. It is from the English word "Hashed Beef".

I don't know the answer but today's Hayashi rice was super good!

Oosakatzuke is a salad of pickled daikon strips and cucumber with a light ginger flavor. It was pretty good. Murakumo soup was a nice flavorful egg drop soup with lots of onion and sea weed. Salty and savory. Very nice. Next up, Ika tendon. Squid tempura is OK, but with that sauce it is excellent.

This is a great line up today. A cole slaw salad with mayo, corn, and cucumbers which has flavor from the mayo, corn, and something tangy too. The dumpling soup was nice with a salty flavor but the dumplings had a very strong shrimp flavor and a meaty texture. Very good. I like to cut my hamburg lengthwise and make a sandwich using the bread. It was delicious and the mushroom sauce was terrific finally the cute jelly had a little rabbit shape in it for the celebration of moonviewing.

ごはん　牛乳　ポークシューマイ

ナムル　八宝菜

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Today's lunch has a Korean theme to it. The 'namul' was good with a nice crunch and sesame flavor.  The 'Happosai' soup was interesting.  Quail eggs, pork, shrimp, and squid too. So many proteins! But the flavor was nice and there were many vegetables too. The pork shumai ware great and I ate them with rice and soup to warm them up. The flavorful pork had garlic and other tastes as well.
