On July 17, 2024, 'Nishin Parent-Child Bento' at 'Musashiya' in Rumoi, a city in Hokkaido, ranked third in Japan's railway bento ranking. The previously abandoned Rumoi Station has been revived, offering the iconic Nishin bento. The station's closure in 2023 led to a decline in economic activities, but with the rise of 'Michi no Eki Rumoi' in 2024, the eateries at the station, including Musashiya, have made a comeback, attracting locals and tourists alike. Apart from the bento, the article also mentions the famous 'Kuma Appears Attention Incident' and the history of Herring (Nishin) in Rumoi.
