| 02.23.2018 – In high school or college days packing lunch was a challenge. Every day it becomes redundant with the food you bring all the time. But it saves you enough money for you buy stuff that your mom won’t let you get namely comic books or toys. But as you become an adult and have decided to embark on living overseas the challenges stay the same only this time you get smart at it.
Rarely, buying food at the cafeteria is something not the usual thing when its lunch time. For this day only trying something different and for this day no more bringing the usual homemade sandwich or the microwavable rice in the box meal that was purchased at either Coles or Woolworths. It’s time to try the local stuff that TAFE Regency has to offer and that’s the usual Fish n’ Chips! |
It’s the Australian culture when you have tried Fish n’ Chips for the lunch time. I always pack lunch it’s either the homemade sandwich that has ham, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese or the rice in the box that I don’t see as a common thing in the Philippines, which is entirely more about instant noodles. So it’s a thing here in South Australia having lunch at the cafeteria with some of my good mates.
One of them has been asking me to have a go at the local food and try the cafeteria goodness, which our esteemed lecturer has discouraged. He claims at the old place there was an in-house chef that really cooks good food but at Regency Park everything was like bleah as what he says.
The Fish n’ Chips (fries) is left undesired though it looks good it depends who says it’s really worth the $6.00 AUD and the serving like this well its good enough to try the in-house meal. It got sauce all over it that this is their lunch. Back in the Philippines people there will criticize you for eating less telling you off that they think you’re on a diet or something.
Rice meals are rare here so the adjustment doesn’t need me to be like the others who complain about the limited access to that set of meals. They also have it in the cafeteria but a little bit pricier that some most say is not what you expect.
Overall meal is just a good one for today to pass the time to have something different. Rice meals are good but hey, living in Australia is an experience to try new things. Maybe it’s a diet but people here certainly is not pudgy to pig out as they really watch their health same goes to their government for the reason why there’s not much fast-food restos here.
Just this once having cafeteria food is not that bad but not every day, mate.
