Everyone knows them: the lovingly designed snack boxes you see in anime and manga.
Probably everyone has seen a bento in anime at least once and immediately got hungry at the sight of it: think, for example, of the elaborately designed bento boxes by Makoto Kino from Sailor Moon. But a bento doesn’t have to be elaborately decorated!
Bentos are also becoming increasingly popular in Europe. The practical lunch boxes are no longer a novelty – they have been used in Japan since the 5th century.
In this lecture, Miiyo explains what exactly a bento is, how to prepare one and presents the various utensils that are needed to make a bento a “bento”. Furthermore, we also deal with the questions of whether and how expensive a bento has to be, what types of bento there are and whether a bento really has to be “typically Japanese”. ^_^
