What? pork cutlet ekiben
When/Where? on a shinkansen bullet train to yamaguchi
Comments: I went down to Yamaguchi to see my university friend Evan, and you know I had to have a ekiben (train station lunchbox) and here is the one I got in Shinagawa station. It was fairly normal, and although I guess it was supposed to be that way, the crust one the cutlet was too thin for my tastes. But it was fairly good, nice good quality meat. Rice tasted like most ekiben rice, which is a little less fluffy than I'd like. Good deal though. In the box picture you can see my book "Yellow Eyed Fish" that I'm trying to struggle through right now. This cost 850YEN.
