I’m crazy about stainless steel bento boxes! An obsession, a passion, a fascination or … a healthy fixation. Okay, I go with that. 
Entries are now closed. Thanks for all the inspirational comments. I’ve announced the winner here.
The much anticipated bento cookbook by Maki Itoh of Just Bento is now in it’s second printing! And no wonder…because this bento cookbook has it all.
Saba Man and I have a group of friends that togther, we go out and enjoy new restaurants. New, not as in recently opened but new to us. The Tamarind Tree in Seattle’s International District is an established 5 year dining experience. But for the life of me, I don’t know why I hadn’t eaten there before.
The first thing you’ll notice about the food at “Bobby’s Hawaiian Style Restaurant” is the lack of greens! Unless of course you order the lau lau! But I’m not complaining…it’s the nature of Hawaiian-style food and it’s delicious!
Update: This restaurant has closed.
Another entry for our “Bibimbap Battle” and yes, it’s from another Hwy 99/Aurora Ave restaurant! Read the rest of this entry →
Update: This restaurant is now closed.
Ah…I think we’re getting close to dolsot bibimbap perfection. This is the fourth installment of my “bibimbap battle” and again I found this place along Hwy 99, a virtual “road to Korea”?
In the bento world, the summer of 2010 will be marked as the season of cute bento cookbooks! And I love CUTE! But…I have to admit that I pulled out the thesaurus to write this post otherwise every other word would be “cute“.
The hunt for the best bibimbap goes on with the next stop, “Old Village”! This little place, a few miles south of my previous review, is always busy because of their barbecue! Their claim to fame is the use of real charcoal (not gas) at their table-side grills!
They are always busy!
It’s no secret among my family, friends, and some readers that I love Korean food. It’s my favorite and what I would call my “last bite”. As morbid as it sounds—I will request dolsot bibimbap as my final meal.
Have you ever belonged to a secret club? I haven’t, but eating at Koji in Las Vegas makes me feel as if I share a secret with people who are “in the know”.
I have a dozen or so restaurant reviews to post but between vacation photos and bento boxes I am failing to keep up. With that said, I am placing “Caravan Kebab” ahead of the whole pack because this little restaurant is a winner!
As some of you know, my Mom lives in Hawaii but meets me in Las Vegas, Nevada at least once a year. And while in Vegas we go to eat at Makino!
