Greetings. I've always had healthy rice based packed lunches since I was little, and when I got into high school and started watching Anime (which is decently popular in the Philippines, where I grew up), I became interested in Japanese culture and cooking, and of course, the bento. I'm trying to put together a retinue of dishes I can put into a bento for my Fiance's lunches, and I found this site while searching. I've been reading a lot of the stuff on here, which all is very impressive (my lunches, while healthy enough, are never that visually pleasing). *waves*
