Okay, I guess it wasn't exactly a bash. But the two out of eight of us who ordered bento boxes during the company lunch felt we'd chosen best. Before I tell you why, did you know, those of you who live in or near Nanaimo, that Minnoz (the restaurant/bar at the Coast Bastion Inn) has a daily bento box special? Well, now you do.
So onto the delicious details. The bento box is like a food adventure -- in each little compartment you get to discover a different taste sensation: here a little sushi, there a little tempura and everywhere wasabi and pickled ginger to spice things up. Yum! And each daily bento box at the Bastion comes with something a little bit different -- one day it might be a spicy tuna roll and ginger beef, the next a california roll and lemon chicken. And yes, if your colleagues like to have their adventures well away from the restaurant table there is more traditional fare -- like a bacon, brie chicken sandwich (gluten-free bread available if you want) and of course, fries.Location: 11 Bastion Street, Nanaimo, BC
