Komaba and Komaba II Komaba Original Bowl 2024 Grand Prize Winner Decided!

In May 2024, we solicited original recipes from the Komaba Purchasing Department, Komaba Cafeteria, and on social media, and received 19 submissions! Thank you to everyone who applied!

Tasting session

At the original bento tasting event held on June 5th, five menus were introduced that had been discussed and selected by the purchasing department and cafeteria department. Based on the submitted ideas, written text, illustrations, and photos, actual bento-style dishes that could be produced in the cafeteria were unveiled for the first time!

Final candidate bowl

Muscular bowl

This muscle-friendly dish is made with low-calorie, high-protein chicken breast meat, topped with broccoli and a boiled egg

Komajiro bowl

A bowl of rice inspired by a certain ramen, topped with plenty of garlic dumplings, cabbage, and pork slices

Komaba Campus Bowl

A bowl of rice inspired by the trees of Komaba Campus: sweet and spicy stir-fried pork (Building 1), egg (ginkgo), and spinach dressed with sesame seeds

Appetizing! Corn Mayonnaise Basil Komabadon

A colorful bowl of rice topped with corn, mayonnaise, and basil, or komaba for short

Croquette Mapo Yakisoba Rice Bowl

This is also a bowl of rice that is very filling and impressive, made with croquettes, mabo, and yakisoba

After hearing from the creators of the five finalist dishes about the thoughts they put into the bowls and from the cafeteria staff who created the recipes about their particular preferences, the tasting session began

The grand prize goes to "Muscular Muscle Bowl"!

Comments on the Muscle Bowl

The chicken was very well seasoned, and the flavor of the sesame oil spread throughout my mouth. It's very healthy, so I recommend it for people who don't do muscle training and for women

It's good, I'll buy it if it's available

・I'm glad that it contains not only meat but also broccoli. I personally like boiled eggs, so I'm happy
