17 Grown-up Bento

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, E and I went to Super H to shop ['til we dropped], and eat lunch.  I just could not resist the little food court restaurant called T1 Bento & Grill.  I ordered the peppers and steak bento, and waited to be surprised by the sides.  I ordered E steamed shrimp dumplings.  My bento came out on a dosirak tray, which I thought was very cool and it was really good!  It came with steamed sticky rice, fried dumpling and spring roll, lightly wilted baby bok choy in a sweet sesame-ponzu sauce, and fresh clementines.  I absolutely LOVE the idea of the baby bok choy, and I'm definitely going to feature that in upcoming bentos.

Sticky dumplings with sauce.

E enjoying her dumplings (which she thought were awesome despite being slightly indignant that she had to eat them with a fork rather than chopsticks.)

Here is the wondrous wall of housewares where I spend the majority of my browsing time.  It's a little strange because you have to search for the kitchen items in between toilet plungers and toothbrush holders.

I was thisclose to buying this cutting board!

And last, but certainly not least.

I wonder if Alicia Silverstone realizes she's the face of Jennifer Minimizing Briefers?
