"I didn't even know I was hungry" (The Food Appreciation Thread)

There is a... I will call it an eatery because restaurant I think does it too much credit in the same way as one wouldn't call a McDonald's or even a Shari's a restaurant. Whatever it is, it is near my apartment. Their main foodstuff is a rice-and-beans bowl, with a variety of rices and beans and other et-ceteras to go in it; I had one that was jasmine rice and edamame, topped with tomatoes and black olives and cheddar and nori and sour cream and avocado; it was a confusing cultural mishmash. I also had them put pepitas on it, but let's be honest, nobody that's not a white twenty-something suburbanite is going to be eating at a place like this, so let's call a spade a shovel. They're roasted pumpkin seeds, dude.

All the rice-'n'-beans come topped with a sauce. I do not know what the sauce is. Having eaten it, I cannot tell you what the sauce is. I can tell you what it isn't, which is to say sugar, egg, dairy, wheat, GMO, gluten, or non-vegan, but I cannot tell you what it is. The safe bet says soy. Of some sort.

Pretty acceptable food, but pretty calorie-heavy too. I rarely eat rice anymore; the roommates are more pasta-and-bread types, and there's no point making some just for me or storing it post-cooking for long.
