便当 (biàn dāng) is a traditional Chinese meal that is typically packed in a box for convenience. It often includes a variety of dishes, such as rice, vegetables, and meat, making it a balanced meal.便当 is popular for lunch, especially among students and workers, as it is easy to carry and eat on the go. In Japan, a similar concept exists called 弁当 (bento), which also features a variety of foods arranged in an appealing way. Both types of便当 are designed to be nutritious and visually appealing, reflecting the importance of presentation in Asian cuisine.
