This Ain't No School Lunch!

Today I went on a "business trip" to Miyazaki City, because two of my students were participating in a speech contest there.

Since the four of us (me, my supervisor, and the two girls) weren't at school for lunch, we had lunch at a restaurant in Miyazaki City.


I ordered "ten don," which is tempura ("ten") over rice ("don").

The main dish might look a bit undone to you, but that's only because I took this picture before pouring the sauce (that stuff in the top right) over it.

The tempura, which consisted of two prawns, a piece of bell pepper, a piece of eggplant, and a piece of pumpkin, was quite delicious.

The soup wasn't great, but it tasted fresh.

The only thing I didn't eat was the tsukemono, those two yellow "pickles."

Too bad we don't get served food like this every day at school.

Either that, or too bad I don't go on more business trips!
