Bento 18

Two cheesy face on a bed of fried rice with yellow cherry tomatoes. The nori punch out for the facial expression is a bit smudgy as the puncher is not that sharp as expected. Green capsicum was cut out using the wheel cutter as hair.

Shown above are the tools used, the facial wheel cutter and sparkling eyes seaweed/nori puncher.

one more question Arlene, where u get the cutter from? look very nice. I just hop to shoppingmum blog, i see her also using that. :)

Can i get from Daiso?

Arlene said...

Javapot, you can do that too it's from a precast plastic "wheel" cutter.

Shoppingmum, quick la , have you received the stuffs?

Annie Q, those are "wheel" cutters from Japan by Mari Miyazawa a Japanese bento "sifu" bought from Chooi Peng :(http://market.wchpeng.com) Too bad can't get those from Daiso.

So cute! A fun way to jazz up fried rice.

I've got the set of nori punch from Chooi Peng too, but haven't open the packaging yet. Now that you said it's not sharp, I hope it's not like the Hello Kitty set which always get stuck. That'll be too aggravating for words.

3lilangels, don't worry it's much better than those HK plastic punchers but not that good compared to Carla Craft.
