Mr. Bento Returns for Sukkot

I often used to take my lunch to work in a Zojirushi Mr. Bento -- this Mr. Bento. More recently, I take it out for use once a year, to bring my meal to our synagogue's sukkah for a Sukkot.

This year, I made a spicy soy sauce poached mahi mahi fillet, with brown basmati rice, a dashi broth with corn and wakame, and a dessert of sliced strawberries and balsamic vinegar.

This Isn't Odd!

Lunch today is canned sardines mashed with a little chipotle in adobo sauce and a little mayonnaise, over rice. Wakame (dried seaweed) for garnish.

Shrimp & Rice Breakfast

For breakfast today, I had an unorthodox (by Western tastes) breakfast: a half-cup of brown rice, with a half-cup of dashi, 8 diced cooked/shelled shrimp, and two tablespoons of fueru wakame (chopped dried seaweed). Plus a cup of coffee.
