"Kamugen" in Akihabara. I heard that a rice ball sold here was "awesome!", So I actually went to the store.


Rice balls lined up next to the cash register. One is big! Certainly amazing!


I bought the most popular "roast beef rice (480 yen including tax)", "shrimp ajillo rice (450 yen including tax)" and "sea bream and sakura shrimp rice (480 yen including tax)". In addition to this, standard ingredients such as dried bonito and bonito flakes were also sold.

■ Roast beef rice

Take it home and start eating from "roast beef rice"! The size is a little smaller than the iPhone 7. A bowl of rice is the amount of rice that you think you are using. Isn't it bigger than the rice balls at the convenience store?




Large roast beef is wrapped around peppery butter rice. When you cut it, you will get a soft-boiled egg from the center! The spilling yolk is irresistible.



When I bite it, I found beef cut into dice in the rice! The taste is well-stained and the response to eating is outstanding. It's just like a roast beef bowl made into rice balls.

■ Shrimp Ahijo Meshi

"Shrimp Ahijo Meshi" is a rice ball containing cut shrimp and a whole boiled egg. The scent of garlic oil is appetizing. The crispy shrimp texture is also the best!


However, this rice ball is quite oily, so the inside of the vinyl is moist and covered with oil while you take it home. Be careful when you carry and eat.

■ Sea bream and sakura shrimp

If you like refreshing food, we recommend "Sea Bream and Sakura Shrimp Rice Ball", which is a rice ball mixed with sea bream and sakura shrimp. It is a dish that you can feel the flavor of sakura shrimp. The taste is lighter and easier to eat than the other two products.



Some people may feel that it's a little expensive when they hear about 500 yen each rice ball, but considering the location in Akihabara, the excitement of the appearance, and the response to eating, I think it's worth a try. Is done. Please do try that out.
