Japanese Bento Box at Moon Rabbit Cafe

August 28 2021

It’s been quite some time since Thomas Darnell and I had dinner from Moon Rabbit Cafe’s pay what you can cafe. This did not disappoint! Moon Rabbit Cafe is part of Reno Buddhist Center. Thank you to the Reno Buddhist Center. They are all such lovely humans!

Tonight it was a Japanese Bento Box dinner. The dinner featured soba noodles and Tsuyu sauce with choices of marinated chicken or tofu, a side of Great Basin Brewery’s famous cucumber salad, and tri-colored mochi for dessert.

It’s Gluten-free and vegan friendly (we had the tofu option).

Thomas and I enjoyed dinner at Moon Rabbit Cafe’s Pay-What-You-Can Community Cafe! It was a “Tasty Thai” experience specially created by chef Evan Berry!

For starters we enjoyed corn/tofu fritters and veggie spring rolls with sweet chili sauce and peanut sauce. The coconut limeaid was so good! Thomas had Thai coconut chicken curry and I had veggie yellow curry with a side of Jasmine rice. Thomas completed with a homemade mango pudding; which I skipped as it is made with gelatin.

Grateful to Reno Buddhist Center for facilitating this every other month. Yum!
