I've been seeing Rice in a Box (RBX)for a long time but never bothered to try it. One time, I went out on an errand and forgot my wallet. (Yeah, I'm quite careless sometimes) As I got hungry, I scrambled on my coin purse for some change (barya) and recalled seeing Rice in a Box offer cheap meals so I headed there.

They have a very straight forward menu with pictures of bowlsfilled with yellow-colored rice and toppings.

In addition to that, there are also plates wrapped in plastic to show the meals up-close.

I waited around 10 minutes and my Beef and Mushroom was ready. It was served in a Chinese box with a napkin and plastic spork.
As I opened it, I couldn't help but wonder why it didn't look the same as themenu and display? That's when I noticed that it didn't have any peas and corn. Thebeef bits and mushrooms were well-proportioned with the rice. In terms of taste, itwas enhanced with MSG but that's roughly what you paid for. It felt warm to the tummy butthe portion is snack-size.

I'm glad I got to try Rice in a Box (RBX). It's has hundreds of branch that's always crowded and I've always wondered what it taste like for such a bargain price.
