Bento （弁当）
Bento （弁当）is a single take-away meal or a home-packed meal in the Japanese cuisine.
It originated from the late Kamakura Period (1185 - 1333) when dried cooked rice named hoshii 糒 was developed. Since then, the presentation of bento went through much evolution throughout the history of Japan.
Although bentos are now sold almost everywhere in Japan, many Japanese homemakers still spend much time and effort to prepare a delicious and appealing bento for their spouse and children.
Recently, there is an increase in popularity in a type of bento named deco-ben which is an abbreviation of decoration bento. Deco-ben was originally created to promote better eating habits among children. However, now it has evolved to a point where deco-ben contests are held in Japan and other countries.
Below are photos of some yummy deco-bens. Don't you find them cute and appealing? =P
More than just a delicious lunchbox, a person can also have fun admiring the display of art in his bento. Well, not to forget to appreciate the time and effort taken to make it as well.
