sandwiches
At just around a buck, the egg sandwich at this chain is enough to make convenience stores weep.
We find out if this “Greedy Sandwich” with cherry blossom bread tastes as good as it looks.
Skipping the regular Family Mart buns for these substitutes transforms Famichiki into something even more magical.

New “Greedy Sandwich” with cherry blossom pink bread takes classic Australian and Kiwi party food to new levels.
Masters of their crafts in Tokyo and Kyoto team-up for a very unusual, but very appealing, innovation.
“Slime Sandwich Mold” usually wouldn’t be such an appealing combination, but these are sandwich makers shaped like the beloved Dragon Quest mascot we’re talking about.
