The Japanese convenience store, or Konbini is anything but humble. Appearing on almost every street, konbinis are the beating heart of the nation - a place to drop into at any time for daily goods and manga, or to print documents, make travel reservations and even pay bills. But above all they are known for their evolving, incredible food options, which are freshly stocked, day and night.
In Japan's local konbinis - Lawson, 7-Eleven and FamilyMart you'll find everything from onigiri to fried chicken; sandwiches to curries; donuts to roll cakes and everything imaginable in between. This book is a celebration of these much-loved recipes that are adored by locals and visitors to Japan alike.
The six chapters here include: Onigiri, Hot Snacks (croquettes, roll pizza, fried chicken, etc), Osouzai (meatballs, curries and stews), Bento, Bakery and Desserts. Beautifully & presented, with glorious photography and simple recipe directions (each recipe is just a half page of numbered, easy to follow directions) - this is a must for any fan of Japanese cuisine.
