There are actually many stores that originated omelet rice. Among them, the famous one is "煉瓦亭 (rengatei)" in Tokyo Ginza, which is famous as the birthplace of various Western food menus. Founded in 1895 (Meiji 28), "the forerunner of Western food restaurants"! The nostalgic atmosphere of the Meiji era is plentiful as it passes through the Taisho romance.

Omelette rice, which was first served at the restaurant, was served by the customer's desire to eat a bribe dish made by mixing eggs and white rice and ingredients. Therefore, Rengatei's omelet rice is not wrapped in lightly roasted eggs. So it is named Rice Omelette. It's a bit different from the omelet rice that is made with fried eggs and chicken rice seasoned with ketchup.

But I don't want to introduce only Tokyo,
A little further to the west, another store is famous  - "北極星心斎橋本店" in Osaka. Founded in 1922.

In order to bring out the atmosphere of Western dishes, the seasoning of rice now differs depending on the store, and the sauce on top is not only ketchup, but also demiglace sauce, or white sauce. Even if you ask for an omelet rice, there are times when you do not get what you expect, and that's very interested.
The point of this omelet is the fluffy plain omelet. Especially, the eggs on a bowl of rice and then slowly cut by a knife will make you feel WoW.


By the way, What is the first dish you want to enjoy if the quarantine over?
