Wholesome Bento

Thank you everyone that enjoyed our wholesome bento for over a year now. The chef in charge of this project has gone to do bigger and even greater things so we are putting this project on hold for the time being. Please visit our store for other amazing salads and other take home dishes!

Welcome to our Wholesome Plant Based Bento page!

Our plant based bento initiative came about from our strong belief that good things start in the gut. Brought to you by a certified nutritionist in Japan as well as a registered personal trainer, our goal is simply to provide nutritious, plant based bento boxes using organic ingredients where possible. Each bento box is carefully designed and hand crafted with a theme in mind. Inspired by traditional Japanese eating habits often containing multiple bite sized dishes, when consumed together results in a well balanced meal.

Please note that the specific ingredients may change from week to week as we work to use seasonal and freshest veggies!

What does 輪 mean? It means “circle”. It symbolizes our desire and goal to design and provide a well balanced wholesome meal in each bento box.Wholesome bento new
