Bento: For the Adults

I mentioned in an earlier entry that I have been greatly influenced by the Japanese obsession with bento making. Here is one for the adults that I made sometime back. It was for my mum who wanted to learn the art of making bentos (not that I am an expert anyway).
.


Flavoured rice in pockets made by beancurd skin (these pockets are easily available at the local japanese supermarkets. There is a term for this kind of sushi but I have no idea what they are called in english), japanese egg rolls, spinach in japanese sesame dressing and baby tomotoes.



I love this double-decked bento that I got from a 100 yen shop here. It cost only AUD$1.20! Now, whoever says you can't get cheap stuff in Japan?!
