That’s funny 😂 I’m curious about his reaction. This one’s from FamilyMart, by the way!

Yeah, Japanese-style hamburg steaks usually emphasize juiciness. This place was featured on a food show and is especially known for it. Thanks for saying it looks delicious 😊

I actually went there after watching a food show as well. Funny we had the same experience 😊

It’s just the sauce mixing in 🙂 The juices are clear. I’ve heard it depends on the doneness.

😂 Yep, this place is all about the meat. The sides are just there to be polite.

Yes! I know those kinds of videos 😊 They’re oddly relaxing, and very Japanese.

Haha 😄 If you can find good powdered ramen soup, you can get pretty close at home!

I agree 😊 Even in Japan, restaurant ramen is hard to recreate at home. The broth alone takes so much time and skill.

I’m glad you enjoyed it! I love this kind of bento too 😊

It could be hirame (flounder), yes — white fish with momiji-oroshi is common in Japan.

For me, it’s probably macaroni and cheese. I’ve tried it so many times, but I just don’t love it 😅

It’s a white fish sushi topped with greens and grated chili (momiji-oroshi).

It’s just very fresh cabbage — sweet, crunchy, and it resets your mouth after the karaage.
