A container for transporting food, drink and cutlery, said container comprising:
- a hollow parallelepiped body defining an inside region having a plurality of side walls dividing said inside region into a plurality of spaces and wells, said plurality of spaces comprising a central space having a substantially rectangular perimeter, said perimeter having a pair of oppositely arranged enlargements, said plurality of wells comprising:
- a first well positioned adjacent to said central space, said first well having a circular perimeter;
- a second well positioned adjacent to said first well, said second well having a rectangular perimeter;
- a third well positioned adjacent to said central space opposite to said first and second wells;
- a fourth well positioned adjacent to said third well and opposite to said first and second wells;
- one of said side walls being positioned between said second well and said central space and having an opening therethrough and another of said side walls being positioned between said third and fourth wells and having an opening therethrough;
- a cover interengagable with said body overlying and enclosing said inside region, said cover having an upper surface;
- a closing strap extending around said container and across said upper surface of said cover for securing said cover to said body, said cover having a cavity positioned on said upper surface beneath said closing strap, said cavity being sized to provide clearance for the fingers of a person manually grasping the closing strap for lifting and carrying said container when said container is closed by said cover.
