Campus Cafe update

Our survey results were reported to cafe owner and manager. Menu price and volume will be considered but probably price won't change a lot.

Cafe manager plans to install electric oven for baking cookies, bread and some sweets.

Furniture for campus cafe will be ready around the end of Sep. Tables will be delivered around Sep 17 and chairs will be delivered around Sep 21st.

Here is some sample photos of tables and chairs. Better than current temporary ones!?

Masoho's bento

Every Thursday, Cafe Masoho comes to campus and sell their healthy bento for us.

Here is yesterday's menu. Lunch box is 500 JPN yen. When I was there, those are already sold out. Thai curry, curry, and Taco rice are 550 JPN Yen. English muffin sandwich is 250 JPN Yen.
Some researchers are waiting on Thursday to buy their healthy bento box. One staff member bought Thai curry and sandwich together. This action tells us how tasty those are. And if food is tasty, people come and buy them.

Bring lunch box into Cafeteria?

I've been asked, Is it OK to bring lunch box(you made) into cafeteria?
Based on previous communication with cafe owner, the answer is Yes.

For example,
your friend buy a sandwich at cafe and you bring in your own lunch. Then you guys can eat together at cafeteria.
you buy the bento box from the other store and you can eat in cafeteria.
From cafe owner's view, he feels happy if you buy something at cafe.

Cafe space is open to all. You should consider cafe space is the same as the other open space in the Lab building.


Microwave is also available. You can heat up your food.
We have new menu from next week. Enjoy!

Cafeteria Opens.

Finally new cafeteria opens. Cafeteria was less crowded than I expected. It looks everything goes smooth.
Opening-day gifts from cafe owner were a coupon for free premium coffee and free fruit plate.



Here is the other food from Menu, Okinawa Pork Sausage Hot dog.



Well, probably each has each opinion about menu, price and opening hour. We plan to have online survey of your opinion around the beginning of Aug.


you can watch the short video of the cafeteria scene.

Blog start.?!

Well, I decided to write cafe information here to share information. I would like to try to add post at least every week.

Probably this blog will finish when we feel it isn't important.

If you have any questions etc, please type in comments area.
Don't complain my/our poor English.

Expected posting information is:
Cafeteria information on campus.
New cafe information around campus.
Cafe/restaurant/food information around campus or in Okinawa to share.
