AK 77 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 chickin karaage (2 pieces), minstrone soup, malty brown bread (2 rolls), gobo salad, funny orange fruit (?) and a bottle of milk. Can you tell it's school lunch? Yesterday was the bomb though! Those big greasy ebi-fries made of 2 ebi I think, as they are 5 inches long, with tonkatsu sauce on them (4 of them instead of 2!!), rice with bits in (plus extra portion), tuna and seaweed salad, miso soup with pork, pear and milk. Oh man, i was so happy and full after that. Food makes me happy. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Winter melon, snow fungus and pig bits soup. Breaded pork chop in cheese sauce over rice. Very sweet iced lemon tea. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 > Those big greasy ebi-fries made of 2 ebi I think, as they are 5 inches long, with tonkatsu sauce on them Those are actually deep fried gallah lizards from Indonesia. They skin and debone them, dye the thing pink, and pull off the legs to use as 'dried shrimp'. I had some of them little tempura gallah lizard legs in the frozen udon I had for lunch. I'd prefer to have had what slow had. Link to post Share on other sites

Just tried vege with a scrape of butter on a parinko senbe, No worms but bloody nice. Bushy, they'll be right up your alley! Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 luckily we have a pub here that gets pies made from a local bakery. Pretty damn close to the real thing, but don't get there too often cos it isn't one of my favourite places. Parinko senbe? What kind of senbe is that? Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Indo and Bushy, I’m sure you’ll both be interested in the Surf Pie Beer club that I’ve started up with a few mates. Last Friday morning was the first meeting, with a 6am surf, followed by a pie and an ice cold beer before work. Not really sure a 7.30am beer was a good idea, but get a bunch of blokes together and no one wants to back down from a juvenile challenge. Tomorrow will be our second meeting. I’m thinking of a ‘fancy’ pie, you know, steak AND mushroom, or something like that. If you’re landlocked and can’t get to the beach, you can still embrace our club values by indulging in pastry wrapped meat and an alcoholic beverage before work. 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.

spook 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Yeah, I’ve been really getting into the pies lately. Not the nasty gristle ones, but we’ve been hitting bakeries that pride themselves on their product and proudly display whatever awards they’ve won. A quality pie is a wonderful thing. Its amazing how hard they are to find. I'm getting hungry Link to post Share on other sites
eskimobasecamp 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 The DOBIN in Wanaka, NZ.... they know how to make good pies mmmm and sausage rolls, was lovin it down there But your whole surf pie beer thing sounds sweet I wanna learn to surf!!!!!!!

damian 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I'll be eating in my company canteen again, its dirt cheap. They will serve up boiled potatoes, meat and cabbage, carrot. There will be a rich salty sauce. A full plate will weight 3 kgs. Desert will be a vanilla or chocolate pudding in a small glass. Between the ages of 10 and 15 I worked on a rusty potato picking thing that got dragged through the rich volcanic mud behind a tractor in the rain. At lunch the farmers wife cooked exactly what I eat for lunch these days, minus the sauerkraut. Spook, stop being an emo pie snob Link to post Share on other sites
eskimobasecamp 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 tonight is indonesian sambal stir-fried rice mmmm with fresh corriander, my favourite ingredient ooooooh but i'd love a pie or some real indian food Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Today I had some nice Nepal curry at a place near my lab. Usually though its just “学食” aka school cafeteria because its dirt cheap. Link to post Share on other sites

spook 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 spud - the germans have a skillwith cabbage. i love that rohtkol stuff. obviously i just spelt that wrong, but i'm talking bout the red cabbage thingy. do you get to drink beer in the staff canteen? is it just like oktoberfest in there everyday? are there busty wenches and oompa bands?

damian 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I also quite like the cabbage, the red stuff, a lot of it. I like German food, its like sunday roast lunch of Anglo culture + a new twist. Germany is a good cultural middle ground for me. For the first time in my life I have liked Brussel sprouts: they don't have to be huge and bitter and tough. My post was not a complaint, just on observation of repetitiveness on a daily basis and also between life on a potato farm in Tasmania and life as on investment banker in Germany, 25 years apart: There are huge differences but remarkable similarities in work and in lunch. No beer at lunch in the staff canteen. In fact, lunch time drinking is not like it was at home, where I was regularly pissed. People take working seriously here, and they work hard (loosers). It is quite unlike in Australia where we were just plain lazy (but thought we were quaintly laid back). There is plenty of sausage in the canteen, but no beer wenches. Actually, my part of the country has grumpy male beer wenches with big trays crammed full of small glasses of beer: you drink one and another one appears a second later and they put a pencil mark on your beer mat. It is functional drinking heaven, not complicated by heaving breasts carrying beer. I might go home and walk the hound for lunch. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 you mean the faggot. And surely the heaving breast complication is more desirable than man wenches? Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Dude, if you want breasts, go to a brothel or hang out with your girlfriend. If you want beer then stick with a man-wench that serves it faster than you can drink it. I got over tit fascination when I was 17 and I see no role for them in serious beer drinking.
