An Open Letter to Wagamama

Dear Wagamama,

Once again you have gone and broken my heart. First you got me addicted to your delicious juice combinations, then you had to go and replace them with less delicious alternatives. I was pretty disheartened, but I could take it. I still had access to sweet, sweet bento boxes. Not anymore.

You had to go and remove them from your weekend menu, didn't you.
Well thanks. Now I will be turning in my frequent noodler card and heading for greener pastures. Well, until you realise once again bringing back the bento brings back the lunchtime custom. It's not just all the new restaurants surrounding you making you empty, it's the lack of bento. The sooner you realise that you might as well not open for lunch without it on the menu the better. 

I don't want to have to choose whether I want to eat one of the items I love in the bento box for lunch, I want them all. You just can't make a girl choose! 
Here is my opinion of the order of deliciousness of the items inside a teriyaki chicken bento box from most delicious to least: 1) sweet potato kusabi, 2) teriyaki chicken and rice, 3) edamame, 4) pickles, 5) miso soup, and 6) leafy greens. 

I will truly miss weekend shopping and bento times. I have attached a photo of one such glorious occasion when a butterfly joined a friend and I for lunch.



I am feeling very emotional just thinking about it.

Yours sincerely,

A truly dissatisfied ex noodler.
