? Photo of the Bento box at Tokyo dining?

[mommycrawford]

Here in NY, when you order a bento box, there is usually salad, california roll, rice, shrimp paste dumplings, and a choice of cooked salmon, beef, chicken, shrimp, or tempura.

Is it like that at Tokyo dining?

I love the restaurant, and have had their grilled selections, but the accompanying veggies were so not Japanese (mashed potatos?)

TIA!

I love Sushi too, but our Bento boxes are slighlty different, Its normaly has 4-5 cut sushie peices from a roll and then 3 small mounds of white rice with salmon slices wrapped around.

WOW - that looks SO good! I have never thought about eating here because we have so many Japanese restaurants nearby, but that tuna may make me change my mind!

Thanks for the photo link Skunk!

It's a great restaurant....I just couldn't understand the vegetables accompanying the grilled selections.

If you are going to attempt to explore different cultures, I find it nice to have to leave your comfort/familiarity zone. I know it is Disney, but so much about the dining experience here is traditional Japanese that it would add to the experience rather than confound it.

THAT SAID,...anyone else hate the changes to the boat ride in the Mexican pavillion?....I never realized Donald had a "Spanish accent."

Perhaps if you saw The Three Caballeros it would make more sense. It was a war propaganda movie to try to get Mexico and South America to help in WWII. Many of the screens in Gran Fiesta Tour are from the movie. Donald is not Mexican, but embraces the culture and forms a strong bond with Jose and Panchito. After all, they are Birds of a Feather.
