In fact, when it comes to Japan, the inherent impression that comes to mind is the cherry blossoms here, Mt. Fuji, Nara, as well as the drugstore and electrical products here, but this time, let's throw away these inherent ideas and let's take a different angle to shop in Japan.
When you have nothing to do, do you like to visit a convenience store? If you do, do you know the top three convenience stores in Japan? So, let's take a stroll through this Top 3 Convenience Stores in Japan! See what's worth buying!
■7-11
711 is a must-visit "attraction" when traveling to Japan! The abundance of items inside will not be understood by those who have not been there. Although each store is only 100 square feet at maximum, it's filled with over 3,000
products and you can look at each shelf for a long time.
At the same time, it's also the most densely distributed convenience store in Japan, with more than 20,000 reportedly now across the country, which is also astonishing with a capital "A.
In Japan's 711, I recommend that you buy the following things - yes, all domestic 711 can not buy.
Meiji cow's milk
Convenience store price: RMB 9/500mL
I must have a bottle every day when I go to Japan, the flavor is really awesome, and it is very fresh, and the consistency and purity are not comparable to domestic fresh milk.
It's amazing when it first enters your mouth, and it actually hangs in your throat when you drink it, and you'll have the sweetness of the milk in your mouth for a long time afterward. However, so good but can not bring back to the country so the little one must drink more bottles!
Half-cooked eggs
Convenience store price: CNY4.5/2 packs
Basically, every convenience store sells loose eggs, but the ones from 711
are the best. The texture is moist, with a hint of saltiness in both the egg white and the yolk, and the runny center of the yolk is silky smooth, while the solidified yolk around it has a gritty texture.
It seems like a lot of people would think that eggs have a fishy flavor, but I can assure you that 711's loose eggs are not fishy at all, and cannot be compared to feed eggs. This is the original flavor of the egg, I'm getting hot tears from eating it!
Suntory Peach Wine
Convenience store price: CNY10/350mL
A great value low sparkling wine (3%
alcohol content). The flavor is a moderately sweet peach flavor, chilled to drink bubbly feeling very refreshing, like me, the amount of alcohol is not good, drink a can will be a little slightly smoked. The same model also has grape, orange and lemon flavors, also very good. You can buy it on behalf of a certain treasure, but it's much more expensive.
BCLClearLast Beauty Powder Cake
Convenience store price: CNY75/12g
This powder cake is a value-for-money fighter! Coverage is strong and does not clog pores, with the puff on the face is particularly comfortable, a kind of fluffy feeling; the texture of the foundation is very light, the summer rest assured that the use of, as well as waterproof efficacy.
Recommended for girls with yellow skin with yellow box models, this color is white and with flash, will not be false white, but the skin will be very transparent, in the sun will also have a Bling sense of light, especially beautiful.
Snow Skin Essence 711 special cleansing cream
Convenience store price: RMB 25/80g
"Snow Skin Essence" is Snow Skin Essence and Japan's 711 jointly out of the civilian brand, the whole of Japan can only be purchased in the 711, the price is quite white, every time I stocked a few bottles. Domestically, some 711s in Beijing and Tianjin
are also available, but the price is twice that of the Japanese side.
Water-milk texture, taste and snow essence flavor similar to the foam is very rich, cleaning power is also very strong, but not tight after washing, suitable for all skin types of babies. In 711 there is also Snow Skin Essence lotion, BB
cream and lotion, etc., are cheap and big bowl!
FANCLBotanicalforce711 special travel four-piece set
Convenience store price: RMB 120
This is also a special product that can only be bought at 711 in Japan, oh, made by FANCL, the price is quite affordable. The travel set includes 7 packets of makeup remover, 20g of cleanser, 15ml of lotion and
15ml of emulsion.
In line with FANCL's philosophy, the main focus is on pure plants, with Vitamin E and Moroccan essential oils as ingredients, high moisturizing and a very warm smell, suitable for dry and combination skin types.
Love the make-up remover inside, only 1
pack each time can be removed very clean, the whole face can be used, and there is also a moisturizing effect, after removing the lotion does not need to wipe the dry
Extreme Moisture 3D Bouncy Moisturizing Mask
Convenience store price: CNY 65 / 35 pieces
There are 35 pieces in a pack, which averages out to less than $2
per piece! The essence is a creamy texture, relatively thick, and contains double hyaluronic acid moisturizing ingredients, which is particularly good for hydration, and also has the effect of making the skin translucent in the long run. However, the mask paper is relatively thick and not so convincing.
Compared with domestic, Japan 711 to 20% cheaper, very cost-effective. In addition, this is not sealed, so open as soon as possible within 90 days to use up, so as not to oxidize and lose the beauty effect.
Bifesta efficient moisturizing makeup remover wipes
Convenience store price: RMB 40 / 46 pieces
To say in front, makeup remover wipes certainly not as clean as makeup remover or makeup remover oil, this is mainly for travel or emergency (such as in the company at noon after the nap makeup blurred).
One wipes all soaked with makeup remover, front and back can be used to remove the whole face clean. There are 46 wipes in a ****, which is a very large amount. It's also easy to pull out and there's a press-on lid on top for a good seal.
But the downside is that it doesn't smell too good, and after removing it, it is recommended that you wash your face carefully with water, otherwise it has a bitter feeling.
■ Rosen
Japan's three major convenience store giants, Rosen seems to always be the millennium oldest position.
In the minds of the Japanese, if 711 is the most convenient, then Rosen must be "the most gourmet", from bento to fried food, from homemade snacks to desserts, everything.
In March of each year, strawberry season limited and August
Summer limited, there will also be a special food dedication, but only in Japan to eat the local Oh ~ so I recommend the following Rosen food, you go to Japan can not miss.
Takachiho cow's milk
Convenience store price: CNY 7
Promise me that when you see a convenience store in Japan, you will go in and buy a bottle of milk, milk yogurt dairy products can be taken at hand is delicious.
This brand is also available in other convenience stores, but Rosen will be full of some, in addition to yogurt and coffee, milk to sell.
The point is that I want to recommend the way to eat it: sour milk with Rosen's tuna and seaweed rice balls, so good! The rice was grainy but not hard at all, and the tuna was very refreshing to feel full of protein.
The Coffee Milk, on the other hand, is better savored on its own, with a pure milk content of
75%, kind of similar to a Frappuccino, but not as sweet and creamy.
Rosen's Comprehensive Four Dried Vegetables
Convenience store price: CNY8.5
Eating vegetables or fruits in Japan is really expensive! A regular apple costs 30
RMB. Well, luckily the convenience store had dried vegetables to give me vitamins and dietary fiber. The ingredients are carrots, potatoes, onions and string beans, without a lot of seasoning, keeping the original flavor of the vegetables.
Personally, I like the carrot and potato slices the best, they are sweet and sweet, while the onion slices can be a bit of a punch in the nose. It's an especially good snack for teething, and it's especially nice to eat on the Shinkansen, and it's low in calories, so you don't have to worry about consuming too much fat.
Rosen Buttermilk Cold Days
Convenience store price: CNY10.5
This one goes without saying, and the netizens' rave reviews say it all. The texture is somewhere between pudding and jelly, and it's superb!
The buttermilk custard is made from colostrum, so it's very milky, with large cloves of orange flesh, sweet and sour, and it's a real treat to take out of the freezer and eat right away~It's said that Japanese people love this kind of desserts with oranges when they have a cold or a fever (don't ask why... I don't know either).
Rosen Coffee Jelly Roll
Convenience store price: RMB 18
Every time you go to Rosen, you'll be dazzled by the variety of cakes and breads on the dessert shelves, and you'll be tempted to buy every kind.
Recommending a classic, the Jelly Roll, which comes in three flavors - cream, matcha and coffee - and a box of six, it's pretty cost-effective and doesn't taste any worse than a specialty cake store.
The cake rolls are made from ingredients from Hokkaido, and the cake body is especially soft, with the custard inside whipped from whipped cream, so you won't get tired of eating several in one sitting.
Rosen Twister
Convenience store price: 12 yuan a time
In fact, the domestic also have, but the Japanese do more exquisite, and different periods have different staple models, play a little bit of quite a surprise, as a gift to bring to friends is also a good choice.
I was twisted 3 times, each time 12
yuan. The result of all the twisted then the hottest edge of the sub gymnastics lady, the mood of the day are particularly good.
Man Xiu Leidun day version of the hand cream
Convenience store price: 15 yuan / 30g
My requirements for hand cream is quite high, one can not have a taste, the second can not be too greasy, and at the same time to meet the requirements of these two is actually quite difficult.
Manxu Leidun domestic version of many people should have used it, the texture is very thick, it is difficult to wipe open. But the Japanese version of a completely different style, _ curry-like texture, not greasy, coated in the skin absorbed very quickly, as long as you do not wash off, the whole day hands are tender, the key is completely unscented.
But unfortunately, this Japanese version of the hand cream is currently not sold in the country.
Integrate Rosen Special Mini Lipstick Pencil
Convenience store price: CNY30
Integrate is a civilian, open-price makeup brand owned by Shiseido, and it's very popular in Japan. This is a mini lipstick pencil from Integrate
and Rosen, available only at Rosen in Japan.
It's a very small one, with two different colors in each one, and you can buy several of them and combine them yourself. It's also very convenient to take on the go.
■Family
Family has opened a lot of stores in China in the past two years, especially in Shanghai, where the number of stores has completely surpassed that of Rosen and
711, and is still expanding.
It's my impression that Family Mart is a very cerebral convenience store. If you've been to Family Mart in Taiwan, Shanghai and Beijing, you'll know that although Family Mart in each place carries the same "Family Mart plaque," the products it sells are distinctive and highly localized.
This time, I'm going to recommend something that you can only get at a Japanese Family Store.
Family's freshly brewed pearl milk tea
Convenience store price: CNY15/cup
Japan's beverages are also delicious, and in addition to the finished products in the freezer, the freshly brewed coffees and hot beverages in the convenience store are a lifelong favorite! We especially recommend the pearl milk tea from Family Convenience Store.
Domestic milk tea I am not quite dare to drink, but in Japan seems to release the "gate", opened the booze mode. This pink milk tea is only available to the whole family in Japan, and the pearls are very
Q, but not that kind of sticky texture, more like coconut.
The overall milky flavor is heavy, and with the addition of whipped cream from Hokkaido, you can taste the high quality in just one sip.
Crab meat stick
Convenience store price: CNY7.5
I've ordered a few crab sticks in hot pots in China, and I don't have much of a taste for them, as they're basically made of flour. It wasn't until I ate this that I realized what a crab stick was. Open the bag is ready to eat, and you can eat the crab meat fiber sense, can be torn into a strip, very Q
Very chewy, sweet taste, with the noodles is no one!
Caramel pudding
Convenience store price: RMB 15
This is the pudding that has won the top spot in Japan, and is produced and sold by the whole family. It is sold in every store, but it is a real steal, and I didn't get it until the third day in Japan.
The first bite, only one thought in my mind: all the pudding I ate before was fake pudding. This should be kept refrigerated, out of the freezer within 20
minutes to use the best, the entrance can feel the concentration of a very high buttermilk flavor, with the caramel syrup is the highlight, not at all _ but a kind of brown sugar caramel flavor, need to be sprinkled on the pudding to mix and eat.
Even a non-milk lover like my mom ate it several times in Japan.
Family Chicken Legs
Convenience store price: RMB 12
I'm ashamed to say that I used to think that there was no better fried chicken than KFC's (specifically the Sucking Finger Original Flavor Chicken), and then I went back on my word when I got to Japan, and I was surprised that a convenience store's fried chicken beat out all the fried chicken I'd been eating for so many years
KFC! KFC!
Outside packaging is particularly plain, I can not imagine inside lying a look at the appetite of the chicken legs, the size is not too big, encountered if it is best to buy two, because this out of stock is also very fast.
Have you ever eaten a chicken drumstick with a crispy skin that also spews gravy, this is it! I'm trying to describe its flavor but I'm running out of words, anyway, it's super, super, super tasty and not available in China at the moment.
Family Puffs
Convenience store price: RMB 6
Japanese people really like to eat pudding and puffs of soft desserts, a variety of varieties and flavors is simply dazzling, in time for festivals will also be introduced to the limited models, such as Halloween will be a pumpkin puffs, a bite of happiness to rise up to heaven.
The whole family's puffs taste like cotton candy, the cream is very pure and a lot of it, and the special thing is that a little salt is also added, so it's not so sweet and greasy. The inside of the puff is baked with custard, much like the flavor of an eggnog.
And the amount is really quite large, no matter how the mouth cream will be "puffing" overflow, this is the so-called sweet happiness it
Family gardening set
Convenience store price: CNY 31
Family from the spring of last year on the sale of gardening sets, the result of accidentally on the fire in Japan, especially popular with mothers. It's especially popular with moms, who buy it to plant with their kids, and tourists, who buy it as a special gift for friends and family.
This year there are more styles, there are salad tomatoes, perilla, cilantro, chickweed, etc. 8
Species set sales, which comes with seeds, nutrient soil and fertilizers, novice, you can refer to the instructions (in fact, all in Japanese, but it is not haha).
Meiji Vitamin C+ Collagen Chewable Tablets
Convenience store price: CNY70/150 capsules
The two days of fun in Japan, although very high, but due to the vegetables and fruits eaten too little (the reason you know), fire and mouth ulcers ensued, the acidic feeling, don't want to go through the second time.
Buying this was purely a matter of beating a dead horse, and I didn't expect to eat it for 2 days, and the extent of the mouth ulcers eased by a large margin. Every day after breakfast chew two, inside is 200mg collagen + 80mg
Vitamin C amount, very suitable for lazy people.
The flavor is sour grape flavor, taste is very good, like eating candy, far better than those vitamin tablets with fishy taste!
Morinaga Baked Cheese Small Square
Convenience store price: CNY20/10 capsules
If you're a cheese person, don't miss this snack! In Japan, the whole family to buy than the domestic can be 50% cheaper, very cost-effective, I was back from Japan, the whole back 10 boxes, to give friends is a good accompaniment gift ~
The box is about the same size as the Kindle, there are 10
granules, the taste is similar to the hard version of the cheesecake, caramelized sugar on the surface, a little bit of crunchy skin, the overall with a slightly sour flavor, with in the mouth can feel it It melts a little bit, and it has a kind of magic power to make your mood better after eating it.
Morinaga Milk Cocoa Powder
Convenience store price: RMB 25/300g
With this, I've ditched the brown sugar ginger soup! A cup of it during your period will not only replenish your energy, but also make you feel better. On the last day of my trip to Japan, I picked it up randomly at Family Sweeps and ended up picking up a treasure (snicker.jpg), a big bag of it for only
RMB25.
There is a self-seal inside, after you open it, you can save 3
months will not be damp. Cold water and warm water can be brewed (with cold water will not be lumps), after the brewing will come to a strong chocolate flavor, each time to put two spoons can be, it is recommended and milk powder together.
When you come to Japan, you might as well take a trip to a Japanese convenience store!
