Even though I order tamago sando the most, omurice remains my favourite kissaten food – and quite possibly my favourite yoshoku in general. Omurice (omelet rice) is normally ketchup chicken rice covered by an omelet and served with more ketchup on top or demi-glace sauce. There are other variants, but that’s the classic showa style. The omelet part can be thin (with more rice) or thick and gooey (my favourite, as an egg enthusiast).
It is said Rengatei, a yoshoku restaurant in Ginza, is the first one to have made omurice how we know it now, but I have yet to go there, because every time I go to Ginza for omurice, I always end up at kissa You.

Algy is so happy to be seeing his friend @capiolumen‘s Sunday flowers again. It’s a lovely series that has been running for a long time - and what a glorious burst of colour and sunshine the flowers bring this week, to brighten up the greyness of a late September day on the west coast of the Scottish Highlands… Gorgeous!
