I've noticed a definite buzz around bento-making in London recently, and when you look at some of the results of this cutest form of cuisine it's easy to see why.
This fantastic creation by Kick in the Head Comics represents the pinnacle (for me!) of what you can do with some sticky rice and raw veg, but if you want to master the basics of bento, you might want to check out the simple instructions here. Or, if you just want to sit and be inspired, check out Calvin & Hobbes bento, and this crazy Cooking Mama bento. Way too good to eat!
