As the weather gets warmer, some of you might be checking cherry blossom forecasts and planning your cherry blossom viewing bento for this year. While store-bought cherry blossom bentos are delicious, why not try making an original Hong Kong-style handmade bento with your family using Bunki's side dishes this year?
There are many things you might want to pack in your bento, but here are some menu ideas perfect for cherry blossom viewing. Feel free to arrange them to your liking.
First, here is the number one most popular cherry blossom viewing menu item:
Curry Fish Balls seasoned with spicy curry. The spicy aroma and richness of the curry whet your appetite. Fish meat shumai is also a dish that children will love. Add black soy sauce and chili sauce for enhanced flavor. Wen Kee's special Fried Stuffed Three Treasures (Jin Yong San Bou) eaten together will double the deliciousness! Sharing it with family and friends will also double the happiness!

This is a thin crepe dough with reduced sweetness. You can use it as is after thawing, but lightly warming it in the microwave enhances its aroma. Wrap your favorite fruits and cream in the crepe for an easy and delicious dessert. It's a sweet treat that children and women will love, and with its mild sweetness, it's also appealing to men. It's not just for desserts; it's also recommended for wrapping dishes like char siu. Laying it under dishes or dim sum makes for a beautiful presentation. It's perfect for entertaining guests and for visually appealing plating.
