Hi all!! This is ‘Happy Well Being House.’ We’ll be back tomorrow on wed. We got into trouble with the vending car. It had been broken and we tried to fix it up but it took time a lot. So we will work with the old vending car for little while. The food will be same anyway and we’ll make sandwiches too..

Okay, what have you done with my beloved HWBH cart? The haven’t set up in their usual spot yesterday or today. Are they just not coming in due to the showers?

just had the fish, with some teriyaki sauce on it. it was great. the hot sauce wasn’t all that, the last time i tried it. it tastes like those little hot sauce packets you get from Yip’s.

I dunno, but to me, well-being’s version of bulgogi looks closer to authentic bbq’d bulgogi.

I have tried the cart twice, but each time they tell me that they only have fried rice or potatoes, both of which I tried and they are pretty bad. Has anyone actually gotten white rice there?

I think the best way to eat the fish is to ask them not to cut it up and eat it as sandwich on white bread. It is really good fish. Maybe some white and hot sauce.

Yeah, I didn’t think the salad/slaw was bad, just a little too heavy handed on the mayo dressing. If they toned it down by about 50%, it would be perfect.

@Deanlo – I knew someone had the answer!

Actually, the first time I went the salad was just plain cabbage, now they add mayo too it. I think I prefer it plain, again like the cabbage at saporro or gogo curry that come with katsu orders.

@flatrock, sakanakatsu, maybe? tonkatsu is always pork.

man i wish they had the cabbage option the first time i went. i love that stuff w/ some thousand island — the way they do it up at kfc’s

I’ve eaten here 4 times already and every time I get questions from fellow cube dwellers about where it came from. Great fried fish, and one of the cleanest carts in midtown. The teriyaki sauce over the fried fish reminds me of japanese tonkatsu (can tonkatsu be fish?).

Agreed though that the “salad” could use some work.
