Japanese convenience stores, or “konbini,” are a marvel of efficiency and variety, offering far more than just snacks and drinks. These stores, found on nearly every corner in Japan, are open 24/7 and provide an incredible range of products and services that make daily life easier for millions of people. One of the biggest draws of konbini is their impressive selection of high-quality, ready-to-eat meals. I’ve made many of them at home for you to try, so I hope you grow to love konbini food just as much as I do (whether you’ve stepped foot in a konbini or not)!
