BENTO BOXED.














































I have been saving this post for a while because I wanted to be absolutely sure I had the best possible examples. Bento box just means, lunch box with little bite sized delights inside. To be delightful, they put little faces on the food. Gives a whole new meaning to 'happy eggs'. On Saturday we went into Nagoya, to a shop called Tokyo Hands where you could buy pretty much anything you needed. I needed a Bento Box. These fine examples are what I have narrowed it down to, help me choose?

  1. Oh my god. The face cutters! I die! What's the black stuff that makes them? Some sort of bean?

    The first one is my fave, but Lego Brick is pretty kitsch.

  2. It's just sea weed put through one of those hole punchers but with a face rather than a circle. Pretty cool additions to any rice ball.

    I think I'm going to go buy one next weekend. I cant believe youre heart didnt sing at the little piggy! Cold. x
