Lunch and dinner.........and desert



Today was plentiful with foods, so lets get started shall we?
I stopped off at the union again(I go there a lot) for some grub. I was getting tired of just eating sandwiches!!! I eat more then just sandwiches!! So for a while no sandwiches!!! General Tso's chicken and fried rice!!

Lets start with this fried rice, there was tons of it.For about a buck i got more then I could handle. It consisted of eggs,onions,peas, corn(which I adore in fried rice) and green beans(which I hate in general). Good stuff this fried rice, not too salty, not too much in it. My favorite thing about it was that it stuck together. It wasn't hard to eat with a fork, with my left hand no less. It can be frustrating to try and eat loose fried rice as it falls of your fork before you can get it in your mouth. Cant say much bad about the fried rice.


The chicken was fantastic in the beginning. Good heat, big honking pieces of onion. I love that in these kinds of dishes. There was a little bit of ginger and visible pieces of the pepper. Also it wasn't lumpy like some versions of this dish. I'm sure you've had the clustery,miss aligned stuff. This was good it was meaty and consistent. I was enjoying it, but towards the end i started to get this funny aftertaste. Not too bad but it got to me. Overall good portioned meal, i was filled.


Now onto dinner, yes that's a chocolate cake and a Jamaican beef patty. Quite a combination but was tasty stuff. The cake was a little on the sugary side but was moist. Its a change having desert, its good good stuff after a long hiatus. I had never had a beef patty before arriving on campus.I have to say i like them very much. The flaky crust is somehow tender and flaky at the same time. The beef was an interesting texture at first. Kind of lumpy, now i enjoy it.A bit heavy on the stomach but now its one of my favorite snacks.

No more sandwiches for a while! And a heads up this weekend may be barren for I'm eating at home!!
