ナン　牛乳　キーマカレー

野菜ポテトサラダ　とちおとめヨーグルト

～Lunch Report By ALT～

Today is Keema curry and nan bread with potato salad and strawberry yogurt.  The potato salad was creamy and the big chunks of potato were delicious and there were nice flavors and textures from the ham bits and vegetables in it as well.  I like the nan since it is such a rarity in kyuushoku and a nice change of pace from always eating rice with curry.  Also, the keema curry has a nice indian style spice to it which is delicious.  I try my best to always eat the curry only using and nan and not the spoon, but it is difficult!  I love the flavors and paired with the nan is it perfect.  I really think that this is one of the regular kyushoku menus that really tastes like being at a restaurant! Finally the amazing tochiotome yogurt with pretty big bits of actual strawberry inside was great.  Very sweet and more creamy than usual.  We have been getting a lot of ‘Tochiotome’ style foods and desserts recently!  What a treat!

Happy throwing beans day!  Today we have a nice salad, some pork and radish soup, fish and lucky beans.  The salad is a classic and I love the soft crunch with the smokey flavor of the katsuoboshi.  The pork and daikon soup was very flavorful and had a light sweetness and umami from the pork, carrots, and daikon.  It reminded me a little of sukiyaki or nikujaga. I might sound crazy, but I feel like I tasted a warm spice in the soup as well like cinnamon or something.  Today’s fish iwashi, which is known as pilchard or sardine in English, was pretty good.  It was cooked in a nice sweet miso sauce which made it go well with rice.  The fish itself had a small layer of fat on the outside of it which gave a little variety to its texture. Not bad at all.  The lucky beans packet was also a nice little snack after finishing the meal.  Very crunchy and a nice mix of sweetness and saltiness since there were beans, some small candied fish, and other goodies in there.  A nice lunch to celebrate the special occasion of setsubun today.

Happy February!  The first lunch of the month is stamina rice bowl and shrimp ball soup.  The ebidango soup is super good and I love the thin harusame noodles.  They are so light and add an interesting texture from the noodle while still being very juicy.  The flavor is light and salty but each shrimp ball explodes with flavor.  Such a great soup.  The stamina don was also excellent.  Very flavorful and packed with tons of meat as well.  A great meal to kick off the new month!  Thank you very much!
