A very Japanese way of viewing daily meals, \u201cichijuu-sansai\u201d (\u4e00\u6c41\u4e09\u83dc)\u201d, or \u201cone soup and three dishes,\u201d\u00a0is a concept that can be traced back to the Heian period (ca. 8-12th<\/sup> century). Ever wondered why there are always so many little things inside a bento box or separated dishes in a teishoku set? Yep, \u201cone soup and three dishes\u201d is the reason why.<\/p>\n
