The shrimp rice itself has a moist texture, achieved by mixing the rice with dashi broth and shrimp juice so that every grain is coated in umami, then topped with shrimp stir-fried with green onions — a perfect match of texture and taste.

In addition to the extra-shrimp version, the shop also offers a version with added shredded pork — a hearty seafood-and-meat combo that lets you enjoy two kinds of satisfaction in one bowl. But beware: it’s so delicious you might just end up ordering a second bowl.
