Bento Box for Lunch

Last weekend when we were at the Asian store with Larissa and the girls, we discovered a really neat Asian food court. The tables were slabs of cut wood and the seats were logs. They were lower than normal. Steve and I decided to check the place out yesterday and have lunch. We noticed from our first visit that people seemed to be ordering these really neat bento boxes. If you are not familiar with what a bento box is, it is basically a Japanese combination plate. Here's a photo of ours. We picked one with three different kinds of sushi, fried carrots and vegetables, and some green stuff with sesame seeds. It also came with a bowl of soup. YUMMY!!! Tyler wasn't too keen on ordering the sushi. He knew it had sushi in it from an episode of Emily Yeung (on Tree House in Canada) where she makes it herself. Instead we got him a bowl of rice which he was quite content with. We didn't even get a chance to explain to him about how to use the chopsticks when we looked over he was already using them and quite well. He must have noticed the other people there using them. Overall, it was a delicious meal, but we really wish it wasn't such a long drive to get there because we would eat there a lot more often!
