Bento box is a Japanese tradition for transporting lunch. The box itself can be a simple plastic container, but is usually an expression of the owners taste and style. Some bento sets are made of fancy decorated lacquered wood. Search Harajuku bento box or Hello Kitty bento box for cute designs and accessories. Bento is traditionally wrapped in a cloth pouch or tied with a large square of beautiful cloth( furoshiki) for carrying.
