チーズポテト　野菜スープ

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Almost like a reward after eating my natto yesterday, today’s lunch is absolutely amazing.  Steak and potatoes!  Well, hamburg and cheesy potatos which is just as good.  The potatos are amazing.  They look like they would be very dry, but are fairly moist and the cheese adds such a nice flavor as well.  It is great with the gravy sauce from the hamburg.  The vegetable soup was a little plain, but it is kind of taking the place of the salad in today’s menu.  Dipping the rice bread into it is quite nice.  The hamburg steak itself was excellent and the demi-glace sauce was so good.  Such a good menu today.  I enjoyed it thoroughly!

The day has come.  Natto.  I ate it very quickly and proceeded to drink lots of milk and eat plenty of rice.  Next up is the jakko salad.  The crispy tofu is good and the dressing is nice as well.  Cuts through that natto stickiness and refreshes my mouth to enjoy the rest of the meal.  Usually we have nikujaga on natto day, but today they named it jagaimosoboroni.  Which is basically nikujaga with a different meat in it haha.  It is excellent and the saving grace for the meal.  I love how hearty and juicy it is.  It is thicker than a stew thanks to the potatoes having thickened up the sauce.  It has some sweetness but is otherwise a delicious savory treat.  I love it.  Besides dealing with my enemy, natto, today was a nice meal!  Thank you.

Fish, hijiki, and kimchi tonjiru day! A mixed menu, but one that always tastes great. The sweetness of the hijiki is delicious and I really like the beans and meat bits as well. The kimchi tonjiru was tasty and warmed me up. I like the flavor of the kimchi with the soup. The saba in miso sauce is the absolute best and so great. Such delicious flavor with umami and saltiness but mixed with that sweet and savory miso sauce. I love it. Great lunch today.

After the nice holiday we are back at school for one more day! And I am glad to be here because this lunch is super delicious. Menchi katsu and tomato soup! The broccoli salad was awesome and the dressing with it refreshing and creamy too. I love how crunchy and juicy the salad is. The tomato and egg soup was hot and flavorful. Today’s main dish was the menchi katsu and I made it into a sandwich using the breadroll. The katsu was great, fried well, and totally crunchy. The meat filing inside was good and it went well with the bread. Lovely lunch today.

Today is an excellent menu and how I know that autumn is coming soon!  Macaroni stew! And cube salad!  Crunchy cube salad is so fun to eat and delicious with the nice sour tangy dressing and yummy ham.  All the crunchy cucumbers and daikon and carrots make it delicious and satisfying.  The tomato and meat omlette was a tasty treat and the meat sauce was pretty good.  The super star of the day of course is the macaroni stew.  So hearty and with such a creamy texture and flavor it can’t be beat.  It’s got meat and mushrooms adding a lot of depth.  Today’s bread was honeybread and its light sweetness adds something nice when drinking milk or dipping into the stew.  It was a great lunch today and I am super full! Thank you!

Japanese menu celebrating the full moon tonight! How lovely. The salad was good, and had a nice flavor. I don’t know how to describe it really, but it had hints of sesame and some flavoring similar to wakame. The soup was good, with a very light rooty flavor, but has too much satoimo for my liking. Also it had cute little Naruto fish disks that were supposed to be a yellow moon with a white rabbit on it, but I thought it was a tooth at first! Hah! Now I can’t see anything but a tooth. Sorry! I think that the best part of the meal was the sanma though by far. The tangy and sweet sauce was perfect and I could eat that forever. So delicious and juicy.　Last, was a yummy jelly with a little jelly bunny. Sweet and delicious!

Meat sauce spaghetti and tuna salad.  A classic kyushoku menu.  The tuna salad has a nice texture with crunchiness and juiciness as well as a great flavor from the dressing and tuna.  This is a great salad and I am always happy to enjoy it.

Sanshokudon!  This is a great menu today.  Today’s kenchin soup was good with a very light flavor but it was enjoyable.  I liked the juiciness of the cabbage.  The sanshokudon is great as always and the sweetness and nice sesame flavor on the spinach is excellent.  The chicken and egg mixture is also super good with great flavors.  There isn’t a lot to say from me about this menu other than how much I like it.  Thank you!

Ajifry!  I love the fried fish in school lunch and today we get some nice miso soup and the absolutely delicious konsai salad.  This salad is a creamy crunchfest!  So good and satisfying to eat and the flavors are perfect.  In particular the lotus root and gobo are my favorite.  The gomoku miso soup was also great today as well.　I really liked the big slices of tofu which had a nice crust on them.  They were excellent.  Finally, the perfectly fried and crispy ajifry was delicious and also juicy on the inside.  The sauce was nice and my rice disappeared quickly.  Today was a really nice lunch and very satisfying from the beginning to the very end.  Thank you!

Curry and Rice!  A classic menu on a lovely day.  The kaisou salad was nice and had a delicious dressing.  It tasted a little bit like plum and I saw something pinkish red in my salad so I think it was umeboshi.  The pork curry was hot and delicious and had a fair spice level.  It was stewed to perfection and went perfect with rice.  Very enjoyable.  Finally the delicious yogurt was creamy sweet and great.  I love this yogurt so much and it’s a refreshing end to the meal.

Today is a Chinese-style menu with jinjaros and niramanju.  The flavor of the jingaros is out of this world and goes perfectly with rice.  I could eat this forever.  Great texture with juiciness and crunch the whole time.  The ‘pominton’ soup is good and also a new menu item I think.  It is like a mixture of the cloudy soup and a corn soup and a very delicious mix.  I quite like it!  The nira manju was excellent as well with great flavor from the nira which pumped the meaty filling full of flavor.  A really good lunch today with a great variety of strong and delicious flavors.  Can’t beat it!

Hot dogs and chanpon noodles! The hot dogs are tasty and the cabbage is quite nice. I appreciate the delicious and soft buns. The noodles were super good and very filling. I enjoy the thick texture of the noodles and the delicious taste of the broth. I don’t like the squid very much, but overall the dish is very good. A nice lunch!

Ginger pork today!  The ginger pork has great flavor and is filled with delicious vegetables and wonderful textures, not to mention that it goes perfect with rice.  The shrimp ball soup was nice and hot today for me.  The broth had a nice flavor and I could taste a lot of pepper today and it was good.  I love pepper.  The juicy noodles and ultra meaty and yummy shrimp balls make it almost as hearty as today’s main dish.  A delicious lunch!

Popeye sautee and teriyaki chicken with pork and beans too.  A nice menu.  The popeye salad, named after the popular character is loaded with boiled spinach with some bits of corn and meat as well.  It is quite nice and has a lightly smokey flavor.  Maybe it was because the chicken and salad got a little mixed up?  I like to use the bread to make a chicken sandwich and some for my apple jelly so I split it in half.  The teriyaki chicken sandwich was amazing and the flavors on the chicken were very good.  It pairs perfectly with the bread and makes a really nice sandwich.  I also like to use some of my bread to dip into the pork and beans.  The soup was nice as well and had a tomato base.  I like the texture of the beans very much as well.  I used the apple jelly to make a jelly sandwich and it was absolutely delicious and perfect with milk.  The apple flavor is light, but very enjoyable and sweet to conclude the meal.  Thank you!

Today is Fish and Kinpira.  The renkon kinpira was quite good with a sweet flavor and a nice crunch.  The sesame seeds are a nice touch.  I usually move my fish onto my rice and like to mix the miso sauce with my kinpira to give it some extra flavor.  It was nice.  The soup, sawaniwan, was nice and hot.  It has very light flavors compared to the fish and kinpira, but was a nice side dish.  The iwashi was amazing, cooked perfectly, and the miso sauce tasted sweet and savory.  I really love the miso sauce that is added to the fish.  A very yummy lunch today!

Taco rice on this rainy and chilly day.  The taco rice was superb to put it simply.  I mixed all the cabbage and meat sauce and rice in my bowl and enjoyed it like that.  The boiled cabbage still had enough water in it so that it helped to temper the spiciness of the meat sauce and added a crunchy element as well.  This is quite the interesting dish and very good.  Authentic taco flavors!  Completely contrasting that powerful full flavored rice dish is the more gentle tofu and wakame soup.  Since the taco rice has such strong flavors, the more subtle and Japanese flavors of the soup are easier to discern allowing me to taste them clearly.  An interesting pair that works together surprisingly well!  The jelly for dessert was delicious and had a sweetened grapefruit flavor.  It was very enjoyable and strong enough to refresh my pallet despite having enjoyed the heavily yet deliciously flavored taco rice!  Excellent meal today!  I am full!

Yakisoba and anpan!  We rarely if ever see anpan so I am excited to try it.  The daikon and ham salad is a winner everytime and today is no different.  I really think it’s the umami of the ham and sour and salty flavors of the dressing that really make it so delicious.  The yakisoba was delicious and the noodles had a nice soft texture.  Quite good.  There was a little crunchy texture from the carrots and cabbage as well here and there which was nice.  The anpan was excellent!  Good texture and a nice level of sweetness.  Why don’t we have anpan for school lunch more?  ANPAN REVIVAL!

Nikujaga & tofu. The komastsuna salad was delicious. The smoky katsuoboshi really lends a nice flavor to the vegetables. Before I jumped into the nikujaga I prepared and ate my tofu. It was so smooth and creamy and flavorful. It is very high quality tofu which is great. The soy sauce that came with it was very good as well. The nikujaga was perfect. Seriously kyushoku nikujaga is so filled with delicious umami and sweet flavors and has so many noodles and vegetables it is phenomenal. So hot and filling, it is perfect for the cold and rainy weather today. Lovely lunch!

MARSHALL BEANS!  Excellent lunch day today of course.  The beans salad is amazing and is a crunchy hearty start to my meal.  The broccoli makes sure there is plenty of dressing since it doesn’t stick to the beans very well.  The spanish omelette, which I will call a quiche, was great.  I like the potatoes adding a bit of different texture from the eggs.  The onion soup is amazing as well.  There are so many onions finely sliced into this soup and their sweetness really gives a nice flavor with the bits of meat in it.  The cabbage acts as a nice base and makes for a hearty and crunchy bite along with the yummy soup.  I use some of my bread roll to clean the salad dressing and some to soak up some soup so I can get a nice ratio for my chocobread.  The ratio of marshall beans to bread must be good or else it’s too dry.  Lastly, the pear jelly was quite nice and a good refreshing end to the meal.  Such a great meal today!
