Cooking Bento Art in the Hotel Room

I wanted to go to a local restaurant for breakfast, but it was closed due to a Vietnamese public holiday. I went to a pho shop. I had already been there four times, so I was getting a bit bored. In the evening, I went to a small supermarket and bought ingredients for my monthly bento art. I cooked a bento in my hotel room. I felt that cooking broke the vacation mood. I did not like cooking a bento in such a situation, but I had no choice. I ate the bento for dinner. It was not so bad, although I did not want to eat a bento that I had cooked by myself. I soaked in hot water and relaxed for an hour. After going to bed, I found a book about unsolved cases. It scared me and I could not stop reading. In the end, I fell asleep just after 3:30 am.
