The Japanese bento shop menu on the wall

Bento Shop

I went to a bento shop after work yesterday. I went there more than 30 times. The shop’s name is JKE, which is the abbreviation for “Japan Bento Express”. As I am Japanese, it reminds me of “JK”, the abbreviation for “Joshi-Kosei” which means high school girls in Japanese. It has a bit sexual image in Japan. Anyway, I got salmon and deep-fried chicken bento with big portion of rice. Also, I got salad from a supermarket. I went to bed at 9 p.m. but I’m still sleepy. This is one of the ways how to escape from the boring daily life.

Heads-up! These aren't journal entries – they're crafted essays written in English.
Thoughtful, personal, and cross-cultural.
