This is the “Donto Omusubi Teriyaki Chicken Steak” (270 yen). The garlic and ginger-infused sauce, along with teriyaki chicken and mayonnaise, create a rich, junky flavor. [Lawson] A fried rice rice ball made with the rich broth from “Tenka Ippin” also makes its debut! Lawson has pursued a fluffy texture as if shaped by human hands and introduced a new molding method in 2023. The method applies equal pressure from four directions, resulting in airy rice balls. Additionally, they use a blend of domestically sourced rice selected by region. For example, in the Tohoku region, they use “Yukiwakamaru” from Yamagata Prefecture, and in the Kanto region, they use “Hyakumangoku” from Ishikawa Prefecture, incorporating locally unique rice brands.
