Aesthetic appeal in traditional Japanese cuisine has always played a vital role, and the choice of tableware is just as important as the choice of ingredients. While a lot of other cuisines prefer a plain white canvas, Japanese chefs use plates, bowls, glasses, serving utensils and chopsticks to enhance and complement the presentation of food.

This kobachi (which literally means "small bowl"), is typically used to serve appetizers in Japanese cuisine. Mix and match a variety of these small bowls to serve small portions, such as tapas, sashimi, pickles and other sort of dishes.
