Cafeteria Lunch

Last week, I took a picture of my lunch in one of the cafeterias on campus. This is a pretty typical lunch, with prawns (I think) as the main dish, and rice, lotus root, and spinach as side dishes. There are several different main and side dishes available, as well as rice bowls of different sizes.


The prices are somewhat higher than those at Erlangen's university cafeteria (the cost of living is higher in Japan, there's no doubt about that). The meal above, for example, costs 520 Yen.

But on the positive side I have to say that it tastes good (definitely better than Mensa food in Erlangen), and there is free green tea available. I'll share a few more lunch pictures as soon as I remember to take my camera with me again ;-)
