I was somewhat disappointed when I received this book. I was hoping for a more practical how-to guide for making bentos. There is absolutely no info in this book besides the recipes. I was also disappointed that the recipes were few in number and, overall, not very exciting. The recipes require ingredients that are not particularly easy to find. However, if you are just looking for some bento eye candy or you live near a Japanese grocery, this book might be for you.

If you like to take your own lunch and if you have an affinity for Japanese food, try it! It takes a bit of time to prepare Bento boxes, but it's fun and brings something else and healthier into your lunch boxes. Make some more to be prepared to have you co-workers try something! And it gives you lots of ideas to experiment with food.

A lot of the pictures feature boxes with fruits that are not only eye-catching but also appetizing. Typical American lunchbox is so boring, making people think that American mothers do not have nutrition knowledge and practice.

It's just not practical for the Western palate - there are a lot of "strange" foods I haven't dug up the gumption to try. I am a bit more food-adventurous than my husband, who actually ... Read More
