Pinot Catering Diaries, Part II: Comfort in a Lunchbox

If we’re talking about food, I must say I’m always intrigued to try something new. That’s why my weekends are usually reserved for trying different restaurants (though not every weekend, obviously, since money doesn’t grow on trees).

Unlike that adventurous side of me that only comes out a couple of times a week, I much prefer a steady routine on weekdays. That’s why I decided to resubscribe to Pinot Catering’s service for my third week.

And since I’m a satisfied customer in the mood for a good gloat, here’s my lunch haul from week two:

Monday

Carbo: Rice

Protein: Chicken with chili and salt & fried yellow tofu

Fiber: Stir-fried long beans

Condiment: Sambal

Tuesday

Carbo: Rice

Protein: Beef bulgogi & scrambled egg

Fiber: Kimchi

Condiment: Chili sauce

Wednesday

Carbo: Rice & stir-fried white rice vermicelli

Protein: Fried chicken with shrimp paste

Fiber: Tofu soup

Condiment: Sambal

Thursday

Carbo: Rice

Fiber: Jackfruit vegetable stew

Condiment: Sambal

Friday

Carbo: Rice with kaffir lime leaves

Protein: Fried chicken, omelet, & corn fritters

So, what can I say? If variety fills my weekends, then familiarity sustains me through the workweek.
