Caterpillar's Murmur
Lunch Overseas
(MON) April 21st, 2014
3:51 p.m. Cow and I have been talking about a typical lunch in western countries, and we came to the conclusion that we'd both prefer a Jpanese lunch, if we were to choose from the two.
Japanese tend to have a harsh eye of evaluation for food, and although I've enjoyed eating hot dogs, chilli beans, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, cheese macaroni in the U.S. when I was there, I doubt if I could live only on them now. I have a hunch I'd miss things like cooked rice, miso soup, natto, sashimi, etc., etc.
I've alaways felt grateful for being able to eat good food here, for a pretty reasonble price. For exmple, you can buy yourself a nice Obento (box lunch) with cooked rice and at least three other sidedishes for 390 yen, sometimes even in 290 yen. If this isn't what you call a blessing, then what is?

Information on Earthquake
I've created a new page on earthquake information. It may not be enough but am doing my best on updates.
