Convenience stores are big business in Japan, and you will find them everywhere! How convenient! There are about 3 or 4 different chains, with 7-Eleven probably the most popular. Of course, we had to check them out and boy are they fun! Like home, people will go there for a bottle of water or something to eat, but the variety and selection here is incredible! You can get alcohol, meals, ice cream, snacks, desserts, etc. It is like a mini-grocery store and prices are not that bad. On nights we didn’t feel like a full meal, we would find ourselves over there looking for something to eat...and it is pretty good!
Salads, rice, noodles, meals, etc.
More meals, rice, etc.
Jason's dinner - no crust sandwich, meat & cheese, and $2 sake!
My dinner - salad and for dessert, a fruit sandwich....soooo good!
Japan loves Mickey! Tiramisu from 7-Eleven! I am not kidding!
Could not get the courage to try this - spaghetti hotdog
I just learned that 7-Eleven started out in the US, but is now Japanese owned! No wonder they are everywhere in Asia!
