We have dabbled in the world of Bento Boxes, so now let's take a look at tiffins. So, what is a tiffin?
A tiffin is an Indian lunch box and can be used for hot and/or cold foods. In India, these home-cooked lunches are delivered to city office workers from their homes/wives by a delivery person called a dabbawala. These Indian tiffins consist of stackable aluminum containers that are reusable and easy to clean. The lids are secured at the top by a clasps that hold the tiers tightly in place. In India these usually contain meat and/or vegetable dishes, dal, rice, etc. Not sure where to get your hands on one of these awesome tiffins? Check out companies such as Green Feet and/or Happy Tiffin for their selection of eco-friendly, stainless steel tiffins.
