This type of dish called Kyara-gohan (character meal or dish) in Japan. Kyara means character, and Gohan means basically rice but also means meals. This cooking style is an application of kyaraben (character bento).

Hup Holland broodje bento.

By the way, bento is not only for rice but also we sometimes use bread or fried noodles for staple food. Because basically bento means portable lunch in Japan. Therefore even "broodje kaas" can be included in Bento under Japanese recognition.

Football breads: bought in Albert Heijn.
Others: bought in Albert Heijn.
Oranje lunch box: Blokker

Oranje bento

World cup time! It's better to make this bento while Dutch team is staying in Brazil.

Dutch people loves orange color so much. It is easy to find something in orange.
About this bento, soccer ball is made from sushi, and others are something in orange like Orange Paprika, Orange tomato, Carrot Wuppie and Carrot omelet. Aanval means "attack" in Dutch.
I'm not a football expert so I don't comment something about football. Just make bento and enjoy to watch games. Also it's interesting to watch Dutch supporters as you can see following youtube.
