Garfield Pasta & Burger

Are you familiar with Garfield? You probably are, if you are, ahem, as "young" as me. Garfield used to be very popular then, I remembered seeing him often in comic strips and television. My boys have not seen him in either of these, they have only seen Garfield the movie.  Come to think of it, there are quite a few characters popular during my time, but they seemed to have lost their appeal now. Maybe I should dig out those characters from my memory and incorporate them in my creations, lol.


This is my second time making Garfield, the first Garfield bento I made was way back in 2012. I also made Odie then. This time, I only made Garfield.


Garfield was made from a meat patty, covered with cheese, other ingredients used were egg, ham and nori.


Served the meat patty with lettuce and tomato mushroom pasta.


I used the same idea and made Garfield again out of cheese and meat patty. However, I served it as a ramen burger and changed Garfield's expression here.


My first time cooking ramen burger, always wanted to try out this dish because it looks so interesting. My boys saw me cooking this and asked me why don't I just use Mamee snack to make this dish directly. -_-


I guess it's not exactly healthy but it's quite yummy. Only thing is this doesn't taste good when cold, you have to eat it warm when the outer crust is still crispy.

Trudeau Fuel Sandwich Box Review

I've been eyeing the Trudeau Fuel sandwich box for a while, so I'm really happy that Trudeau Corp is kindly sponsoring them for my review. :) They have also generously thrown in another one for a giveaway. I'll post up the giveaway details next week, so check back if you would like to own one too. :)


The sandwich box features a unique square design, so that it takes in less space in a lunch bag and is practical to store. I love the cool colour schemes it comes in. The ones I've got are red and the colour is lovely. :)


The one piece construction is very sturdy. I love the fact that the lid is attached and that it is very easy to open and close. The boys had no problem handling them. The box is made from durable BPA-free material. It is also eco-friendly, as it is made from 100% recyclable materials. They even come with a five year warranty. :)


I made Garfield and Odie bentos using the sandwich boxes today. I love how everything fits in perfectly. The lid has some allowance, so the food and decor will not be squashed.


I packed salmon mayo sandwich, with chicken, broccoli and strawberries for my boys' lunch. I think the boxes will work for sushi and onigiri too. I will be trying that out for tomorrow and I'll do a review on the snap cutlery sets too. :)
