Is it still a bento box if it doesn’t come in a box?
It kinda’ depends on expectations.
Is the customer wanting the picture on the menu?
Compartmented and separated.
Or does the customer want food and flavour?
With potentially more on offer because the plate has no boundaries.
What does your customer or client want?
Are you able to think outside the box?
Or are there definite edges you must not exceed?
You should not assume it’s one when it’s really the other.
Clarify expectations.
“The first step in exceeding your customer’s expectations is to know those expectations.” ― Roy H. Williams
“Happiness is there when expectations meet reality.” ― Debasish Mridha
