Japanese konbini gourmet, summer 2019

Tom Yum Ramen

Combini 201908

Tom yum comes across really well in cup-noodle form.

Q.B.B Cheese Dessert Setouchi Lemon

Combini 201908

It’s lemon flavoured and tastes almost exactly like a lemon tart. Seriously good.

Myojo 175°DENO Tantanmen, the soupless one

Combini 201908

Chinese flavours seem to be having a big influence on Korea and Japan these days.. it must be the trend..

Royce’ Sakuraberry Chocolate

Combini 201908

It’s just okay.

Ça va? Can and Lemon Basil Pasta Sauce

Combini 201908

The Ça va? can is great on its own, and now there’s a pasta sauce to go with it. I had both the cans and the pasta at home so I made some, and it was pretty much on a par with what you’d get in a restaurant. What an item.

Maruchan Seimen Hiyashi Chuka

Combini 201908

Put it together properly and it comes out tasting close to the hiyashi chuka you get in Japan.

Sokensha Onion Soup

Combini 201908

All you need is hot water and you have a tasty soup in no time. Good buy.

King-ken’s Soupless Tantanmen

Combini 201908

King-ken is a simple style to begin with, so the reproduction is pretty faithful.

Mazetsuyu for Chilled Sudachi Udon

Combini 201908

It wasn’t as sour as I expected. A bit underwhelming for something you want cold in summer..

Grill Grand Asakusa’s Hayashi Beef

Combini 201908

Doesn’t taste as rich as the photo suggests..

Ohayo’s Zeitaku Kajitsu Ripe Melon Yogurt

Combini 201908

It’s packed with genuinely ripe melon and it’s delicious.

UHA Ma-Pi Mala Peanuts

Combini 201908

Perfect with a beer.. imagine peanuts like these being sold at a convenience store in Japan.. they really are ahead of the trend.

Awajishima Onion Soup

Combini 201908

The onion soup I bought earlier was so good that I picked up the value pack. Looks like it’ll last me a long, long time.
