Claudia from Cloud 9 Food Judge #2

My name is Claudia and I've been passionate about food my whole life. I started making bento mainly for portion control, but I've found it has been a very rewarding and creative experience. Bento combines several of my interests - food, art, and a love for Japanese culture. I enjoy making kyaraben bento using natural ingredients that follow the bento philosophy of balance, taste and presentation. Examples of my bento can be found on my blog at http://cloud9food.blogspot.com/
