Asian Market or bento boxes?

RoxBride

Can anyone recommend a good asian market or a good local spot for bento boxes?

Now that DD is into having a lot more play dates, I want to pick up some more snack bento boxes and lunch boxes to make cool snacks when other kids are over, and I'd rather go someplace local.

The asian market I went to last time closed. Boo.

I don't have a bento box persay, but I pack his lunch like one.  The sistema boxes at the container store come in lots of different shapes that work great for packing small snacks.

The Pacific Mercantile Company on Lawrence St. downtown might have what you are looking for. They have a decent sized section of asian kitchen items at pretty reasonable prices.

HMart out in Aurora may have what you're looking for.  It's the largest Asian Market that i've ever seen.

this thread on the preschool board mentioned some bento-type boxes that you could check out too.

Ditto this one, or Pacific Ocean Intl Supermarket on Alameda and Zuni has a lot of dishes and stuff. We use a Lunchbots box for DD's lunch, it is oval like a bento and has sections.

I do bento box lunches forLucy in the ziploc divided containers.  They work great and are super cheap!
