Notes: Some people would drop $10+ for this meal at a resteraunt in the USA.
No kidding, that lunch (except for the metal bowls) looks delicious. My favorite soup at our local Chinese restaurant in a suburb north of Pittsburgh, PA, is tofu with vegetables for two, and my husband said that it seems easy that I could make it. Right! If I made it, it would be bland. I need a lesson in spices - this is meant to be a broader suggestion for school lunches - using spices and herbs to make healthy food taste as good as it does in other countries. thank you for letting me rant.
