In conjunction with Pavilion KL’s Tokyo Street 10th anniversary, we are counting down our top authentic Japanese bento box picks for you to take away! Meshiagare!

Few meals are as satisfying as a Japanese bento box. Traditionally composed of rice or noodles, a protein, with pickled or cooked vegetables, these delicious boxed meals are made with love and form the perfect marriage of delicious nutrition and convenience.

There are several modern bento box variations with different Japanese delicacies packed in, giving you a diverse tasting of the best of Japanese cuisine. So many bento boxes, so little time!

1. Crunchy Nanban

Chicken Nanban is a dish called yoshoku meaning western style food adapted to suit Japanese tastes. This is no ordinary fried chicken though! This succulent chicken is marinated in a sweet and tangy sauce and deep fried to crisp perfection to achieve that signature crunch.

Tokyo Teppan’s Chicken Nanban is also served with a side of gyoza and vegetable tempura to round up your hearty meal!
