Bento - Packed Meals

Autumn is a great season for traveling in Japan and there's nothing better than enjoying the scenery with a nicely made packed lunch. The Japanese packed lunch - called the bento - with its rich array of choice, colorful delicacies is itself a distillation of the Japanese sense of beauty. What are the skills of the Kyoto bento caterer? What is the story of the shokado bento? We also see the classic Tokyo makunouchi bento being made! You'll enjoy the mouth-watering footage and all the details about the beauty packed into these little boxes.

Japanese women love cute bento boxes with vivid colors. Thomas Bertrand, originally from France, now runs a bento box store in Japan. He says he found the sheer variety of packed meals here much wider than in France. He tells us what he likes about them.

Bertrand says, "the Japanese insist on packing in many different items prettily to really enjoy their meal. The sight wets the appetite. Looks matter. I think that's the charm of bento culture."

The bento is culinary art in a small box. Please enjoy both the taste and looks of these fun and beautiful meals to the full!
