I could happily eat Obentos every day for the rest of my life and feel good about it knowing every dish on their menu is nutritionally considered and it is hands-down one of the healthiest dining options this city has to offer.

I admit it's a bold statement, but reserved for a very select few and I can confidently say that I would never get tired of eating Obentos. A healthy and simple Japanese food concept centered on salads, quality bento boxes and maki rolls, there's enough variety to keep customers coming back for more (and even more so now with the new option for customers to build your own bentos with the choice of selecting their favorite side dishes).

Since Obentos first opened last September, their most popular bento box to this day is their Teriyaki Salmon Gourmet Bento Box (RMB 60), which is served with sides of sweet potato salad, braised root vegetables, Ohitashi & egg rolls and a choice of steamed white rice, Obentos flavoured vegetable rice or cleansing coleslaw.

The tender salmon is pan-grilled until the edges are crispy, smothered in sweet, caramelized teriyaki sauce, and the best bit is the thin strip of silky salmon skin for added texture.

While their Teriyaki Salmon bento takes the gold in popularity, my personal favorite is their Steamed Chicken Bento(RMB 56), which also happens to be the favorite of Obentos' owner Andrew Stevenson. Served with a basic ginger sesame dip and cleansing coleslaw, this bento is a total of only 333 calories, designed for health-conscious foodies.

To quench your thirst, I recommend Obentos' Freshly Squeezed Grapefruit Soda (RMB 28). If you could bottle up summer, it would be this drink. With a side of sugar water served separately, you can customize how much you want to either diminish or maintain the level of sharp grapefruit sour this healthy fruit is known for.

Obentos also has offers a freshly squeezed lemon soda (RMB 28) and a selection of Freshly Squeezed IF Juices – Organic Carrot & Apple with Ginger Juice (RMB 22), Fresh Orange Juice (RMB 18) and Fresh Apple & Raspberry Juice (RMB 20).

Although, Obentos provides a complimentary service station where customers can help themselves to as much hot tea and ice water as they can handle, I highly recommend that all customers bypass this option and indulge in a freshly squeezed juice or soda.
