A bento is a single-portion take-out or home-packed meal of Japanese origin. The bento box uses dividers to separate ingredients or dishes, especially those with strong flavors, to avoid them affecting the taste of the rest of the meal. I had this Thai Basil bento box for lunch at Sky Asian Cuisine, our favorite local Japanese restaurant, and it's a very sizable mid-day meal. It included shrimp with vegetables and two spring rolls. fried rice, and four sushi rolls with wasabi and ginger. For $15, it was very budget-friendly as well as delicious.
