When I started doing bento lunch for my daughter my dilema included where to get bento supplies. Here in the Philippines there is limited suppliers of bento items so we actually have to make do with what we can find locally. One of the problem was what to include in the box. Local supermarkets or groceries already includes Asian Food Section where you can get Japanese condiments like tonkatsu sauce, mirin, teriyake sauce and the like. They may also carry frozen products like potstickers and gyoza. So I was so happy when my sister told me that she was able to find in Rustan's supermaket's frozen section a pack they called Mix Shabu-shabu which includes this Rabbit Fish Cake (this makes life easier ;-D).It's just a disappointment when we found out it only includes 4 pieces of the said rabbit It also includes taro ball, fish tofu and veggie balls. I just wasn't able to take a picture.
My sister also started doing bento after she found out that I started this hobby. Just like having a bento disciple, he he. You can read her post here. So we're actually into this sort of bento adventure searching for bento goodies available locally.
