Bloggers Table | Blue Ginger,Taj Palace … Vietnamese Cuisine & a Bento Box Lunch
I have always liked the concept of a bento box. I think it's a brilliant way to offer a business lunch. With such a varied and well balanced menu, there is enough and more on offer for both vegetarians and non vegetarians at Blue Ginger.
