Special lunch edition!

Sailor moon bento lunch!

Usagi and Naru are best friends and characters from Sailor moon. Let's see what they are eating for lunch

It seems Naru is having Gyoza (pot stickers), rice and umebosi in her bento.

Unlike umeboshi gyoza is not a traditional Japanese food but a different take on the Chinese dumplings Jiaozi. Pickled umeboshi is a traditional Japanese food. Umeboshi is a cousin of plums and apricots and had a sweet taste. Pickled umeboshi in the center of white rice in some store bought bentos to recreate the Japanese flag.
delicious!

Naru is using a tradition bento box which is fitting for her traditional lunch. From jbox.com

Usagi's lunchbox on the other hand is not filled with traditional foods. She has cherry tomatos, tamago, sliced radishes, small sausages and fried rice.

Tamago is a sweet rolled omlet. It often made in a small retangular pan and the egg is cooked in thin sheets rolled around eachother. The results is a fluffy texture and attractive apperiance.

The rice is seperated from the rest by sushi grass- which looks attractive and is used as a seperator for foods.


Fried rice is a Chinese creation but oven eaten in Japan and other parts of Asia.

And all this non-traditional food should be stored in a cute box like this one!


That's all for the special lunch edition of anime bedrooms! :) see you again soon!
