A “Detour”

Lunch was tofu and turnip … again. Maybe this “monk-ish diet” between parties needs some “adjusting”. Hee hee.

Sushi Tray

Brought in by one of the architects during business  with the campus. Maki sushi, egg maki, cucumber, and pickled turnip. Yes, The Mouse partook (a little bit). 🙂

On the way home, stopped in at AJ’s Chinese Fast Foods.

Steamed Fish and Tofu

 

Simmered Pork Belly

Not to worry (too much). Made a vegetable stir-fry to “balance” out dinner.

Sautéed Cabbage and Bitter Melon

Not planned, a “clean out the refrig” kinda dish. It worked. The sweetness of the cabbage played with the bitter melon.

Enjoy. Eat well.

Clearing the Sinuses

Still winding down from Monday’s epic. Lunch yesterday, while not super light, somewhat “clean”.

Sushi Rolls

Tamago, natto, and fresh chopped wasabi (namida?). The tamago (egg omelet) and natto (fermented soy bean) are two of my faves, the fresh chopped wasabi was a first time try. OMG! The wasabi hit me in the sinuses (I think I saw the past and future all together, don’t know where I was). Definitely an acquired taste, but I like it. A return order in the near future (or is it the past). No TARDIS required. 🙂

So, if you need your sinuses cleared, eat a roll of namida (I think that was what was on the menu). No need doctor, pills or spray. Hee hee.

Bonus.

Diamond Head

This is how close the church is to Diamond Head. Good view yeah?

TGIAF! Thank goodness it’s almost Friday!

Enjoy. Eat well.

Conveyor Belt Sushi

Or kaiten-sushi.

Yesterday’s weather, still blah, bleh, ick. Feels like a sauna, a really bad sauna.

Trying to figure out what’s for lunch. Good salad places or shave ice places weren’t on the route home. It was past lunch hour so maybe could get a stool at Genki Sushi.

Recently renovated, they’ve added the bullet train and race car levels to the conveyor belt.

“Bullet Train”

You can order dishes using the touch screen tablets provided. Orders are served from the bullet train or race car directly to your seating. Cute ya?

The Mouse’s Natto Sushi

Since it was soooooo hot. Lunch was “snack-sized”.

Natto Sushi

Up close and personal. 🙂

Tuna Salad with Pickled Ginger

Did I mention I love pickled ginger (especially with braised pork belly, but that’s another post).

Inari Sushi

Small-kid time fave (old-kid time fave too).

Green Bean Tempura Nigiri

Tamago Nigiri

All-time small/old-kid time fave.

See, a snack-sized lunch. In air-conditioning too. 🙂

Enjoy. Eat well.
