In place of its annual summer festival, the Southeast Japanese School and Community Center in Norwalk held a drive-through bento sale on the weekend of July 25-26.
Each day about 200 bentos from Jichan’s Onigiri-ya were distributed.
There was also entertainment — taiko on Saturday and ukulele on Sunday.
