Why tiffins? 

I pack my lunch every day and I try to eat raw. In my relentless search for the perfect lunch container, I finally found the tiffin. It's perfect for packing raw lunches. It is not plastic. It is not microwaveable. These are good things.

My friend Shanthi sent me the 3 and 4 tiered tiffins you see there to the right. I'd like to find a place to get these in quantity so I could offer them here. I'll keep searching, but for right now, you can buy the 2-tier tiffin. Just click "order a tiffin" on the left menu.

Good ol' wikipedia gives a little tiffin history. You can also go to the gallery to see other kinds of tiffins and pictures of the tiffinwallas.
