Bento #13 - Snack bento

As yesterday at the conference proved, I wouldn't need a big bento to supplement the lunch with healthful foods. Today, I packed a snack bento instead. I took the two "sidecars" from our ECOlunchbox bentos. I filled one with blueberries. The second one I packed with two Laughing Cow Babybel's and one Laughing Cow Wedge, and then poured in habanero BBQ almonds to fill in the gaps.

I did discover that the Stampmill in Lead is a pretty sweet restaurant. We had a limited choice of food; since there were 40 people that descended on the restaurant all at once they only gave us three choices. The Teriyaki steak tips were flavorful and tender. I've only stolen steak tips off other people's plates before - this was my first experience with a plate of them. They sauteed bell peppers and onions to go with the steak tips, and we got a pretty good sized portion plus potato and side salad. Very tasty. The environment was pretty awesome too - they had a nice bar band playing. It was a couple guys and acoustic guitar with only a vocal mic. You could easily talk over them, but they played a lot of good old country, rock, Beetles, etc. I'll have to check out the Stampmill again - when I have a chance to look at the real menu. =)
