I was on my way back up to Tokyo when the idea for this blog hit me. I thought that it was best to start with the "realist of the real" and I picked up an ekiben at a small tourist shop near the ticket gates. Ekiben are hard to find these days, but ekiben is like one of the purest form of bento. I ate this one while on the long local train between Osaka and Nagoya (before I transfered to Tokyo). The rice was kind of chalky, but the meat was amazingly soft. 650YEN
