      Many 7 elevens in Japan have their cooking area. The seven eleven off of Ebisu station and also near shibuya have their setups right next to the cash register. The fry karaage tempura fishcakes etc. An employee told me they replenish about 6am and 2pm for products that are wrapped.

And yes, they usually are kid friendly as well. As usual, thanks for the great content, Paolo. Very useful info for any would-be visitors to Japan!🍻

      @@Steve211Ucdhihifvshi Cheap is relative. If one egg costs them wholeprice 10 cent (and I am damn sure it's more) and they use 2 eggs, if you put the profitability factor on it, it's already 80cent. (restaurants usually go with 4, I think a small izakaya in expensive Tokyo would not be less) Add other stuff and there is really not much profit in it.
      And in teh case of omelets, at a western restaurant (if you can even get them), you also pay for not choosing one of the more expensive dishes.

    Something I never thought I'd like is takowasa, tried it and it's great with drinks at Izakaya
