Miso Sesame Salmon with Honey-Glazed Carrots
It was much better the first time I ordered this dish. This time, the miso glaze was thick and inconsistent. And the veggies were mush.

Miso Sesame Salmon with Honey-Glazed Carrots
I order this pretty frequently, but this most recent time the skin was still on and there were a couple of bones. It’s still a fave but I’ll just need to be careful next time I order it.

Classic Beef Bibimbap
I absolutely loved this meal, especially the flavor of the sauce. Contrary to other reviews, I enjoyed a smaller portion of rice and a larger portion of protein to keep it lower carb. LOVED IT!

Grilled Chicken Teriyaki
The broccolini was magnificent; the chicken needed a lot of help. Half of mine was just floppy fat, and the other half was tasty enough, just only having half the protein was disappointing.
