Baked BBQ Chicken
Meal was tasty, but it felt like a sample size 3 small pieces of broccolini three spoonfuls of mashed potatoes and about three small pieces of chicken.

Grilled Chicken Teriyaki
Very bland. The fried onions get mushy and add gluten. Fresh grilled onions and carrots would be a lot better. Please replace the soy sauce with tamari sauce to make this dish gluten free.

Roasted Teriyaki Salmon
The salmon was quite spicy and I'm not sure what was on it to make it that way

Japanese-Style Chicken Katsu Curry
Good flavor but too many calories for the dish presented. The main component is the “gravy” of the curry. I would prefer a bit less curry and a bit more veggies and chicken.
