chyashu style rice (330yen)

I'm kind of unable to explain chyashu in English, but it has a warm sweet meaty taste that is almost spicy with out tasting spicy at all. This came with half of a boiled egg sliced on top and a packet of mayonize (nice touches!) and I was incredibly impressed. For its price bracket, its an amazing deal with a great taste. Several students joked that I looked hung over so I bought a Redbull energy drink (275yen) with the meal to perk me up.
