is the threadstarter talking about bento that is made with real food, or one that is made as display, just like they would have in front of the restaurant?

And I didn't need any food in the bento. :sweat:
I'd be afraid if the food was bad by the time it arrived..

I can make a bento and ship it for free too!

Cost of labor however, is $99.99+tax.

and besides if the person who orders it pisses you off you can add in your OWN 'special sauce'.

Shouldn't this thread be part of the food thread?

no, because ahiko is looking for the container, not the food. :mrgreen: :beaten: :nut:

eBay time? :mrgreen:

nah, i wouldn't consider selling those.. I think my parents may have used them before too.. so they should be over 30 yrs old now.

i still have a wool blanket that was given to me when i was born. :nut:

Nice. Family heritage. :thumbsup: In that case, you should keep them.

Yeah, so true.


However, I see there are no takers. :(

Shucks. Should I lower the price a bit?

Something to fill your Bento with... from my post @ d-a.



Not quite easy, but Christopher Salyers' Bento Blog, with links to bento forums and companion book: Face Food

Cool :)

I found a store a long time ago. They used to have bentou boxes. Now, it seems they don't. They have all sort of dishes like bowls and tea sets. Not sure if they're good or not, but they have nice things.
