Raw Bento

Green melons are cheap in Tokyo now — just 400JPY (USD4.40) for a small one, so am enjoying melon smoothies in the morning. Cut half a small melon and add a cup of water, then blitz it in the blender.

Why am I relishing in melons? Well, melons, especially rock melons, are ridiculously expensive in Tokyo and can be as high as 12,000JPY (USD132) for one. It’s no wonder that when I go back to Singapore, I make a beeline for melons which are SGD3 (USD2.14) for two.
