Bento Place is a fast-food outlet in Singapore that specialises in the popular Japanese Bento, Donburi (rice bowls), Ramen and Udon meals. We are located at the basement of Caltex House, Raffles Place.

The origin of Japanese Bento can be traced back to the late Kamakura Period (1185 to 1333), when cooked and dried rice called hoshi-ii (糒 or 干し飯, literally "dried meal") was developed. In the Azuchi-Momoyama Period, wooden lacquered boxes like today's were produced and the Bento would be eaten during a hanami or a tea party.

Takeaway Bento is already a phenomenon in Japan and is fast gaining popularity in other parts of the world.  It serves as an economic, fast and balanced meal for many people, especially the busy working professionals.

At Bento Place, we aim to create a good variety of Japanese dishes that will cater to the preferences of different individuals.
