Penguin Bento

Posted on January 28, 2010 by hapabento

Sheri from Happy Little Bento called out the next bento “wave” and it’s penguins.  Her  penguin is just too cute—I can’t  resist giving it a try. 

This penguin … a musubi fledgling penguin,  still has baby feathers sticking out from  the top of his head! :)    Saba Man hasn’t seen this yet so won’t he be surprised when he opens the lid to see kyaraben!   

The penguin is surrounded by steamed broccolini, shoyu chicken, grape tomatoes and enoki mushrooms.

Thanks Sheri for the cute penguin idea!

    This is just too cute Debra! I think Saba Man will be very surprised for this kyaraben bento. And I spot ‘hapa feet’ right under the feet hahaha … Love it (^.^)

  2. Penguin power! As a bentobird, I’ve got to love a feathered friend bento like this–super cute, as was sherimiya’s! Also love the idea of a surprise kyaraben–will be fun to hear of Saba Man’s reaction :)

    Love your penguin, Debra! Thanks for picking up the ‘wave’ – can’t wait to see where it goes next. Nothing cuter than baby penguin – have to remember the musubi idea for next time! I love the element of surprise too…would love to see the expression on Saba Man’s face :)

    Eek! I love it!

    Not sure if I have graduated to penguin-shaping yet – but will give it a try this weekend to keep the wave going!

  6. I hope Saba Man likes him he is so cute. Thank you for giving me a challenge or maybe we should be thanking Sheri for this one. I’ve never done a penguin let alone kyaraben bento before so this will be a challenge for me. I hope it come out looking like a penguin and not an alien. hee hee We shall see.
