To express this, we have “three commitments” that have remained unchanged since our founding. [Konga’s particularity 1.] Rice We use Koshihikari rice grown in Iwafune, Niigata Prefecture, which has a rich aroma, moderate texture, and refreshing stickiness. In addition, by spreading the cooked rice into buns and letting the steam evaporate, the rice has a chewy texture that is not watery. [Konga’s particularity 2.] Ingredients All of the over 20 handmade ingredients are provided by Onigiri Bongo, the supervised restaurant. In addition to standard ingredients such as salmon, plum, and kelp, we also have a wide variety of unusual ingredients such as “Jako Fresh Shichimi,” “Mentaiko Cream Cheese,” and “Egg Pickled in Soy Sauce.” Additionally, toppings that allow you to add two ingredients to a rice ball are becoming standard. A typical example is a rice ball with “egg yolk pickled in soy sauce” topped with “minced meat.” Every morning, you’ll be treated to two types of toppings that are carefully prepared one by one. The combinations are endless, and one of the attractions is that you can make your own original rice balls. [Konga’s commitment 3.] Rice balls that don’t have to be squeezed The most distinctive feature is that the rice balls are made on the spot by certified craftsmen after receiving your order. The rice balls that are being held fluffy in front of you are so large that they look like something out of a folk tale. The fluffy cooked rice is squeezed gently and quickly to avoid crushing it, making it lighter in texture than it looks. Each grain has a texture that feels like it’s falling apart when you put it in your mouth, so even women and children can eat it all in one go. There are a wide variety of kongai rice balls, but we will introduce some of the most popular ones. [No.1 order rate] Egg yellow pickled in soy sauce minced meat Minced meat mixed with egg yellow marinated in soy sauce will whet your appetite. [Luxurious special rice ball] Sujiko Please enjoy Sujiko with delicious rice. We also recommend adding salmon as a topping. [Other recommendations] Mentaiko cream cheese, green onion, fried chicken mayonnaise, pork kimchi, beef sukiyaki [Royal onigiri] Salmon, plum, raw cod roe, grilled cod roe, egg and mentaiko, tuna mayonnaise, perilla kelp, natto, mustard greens, mentaiko mayonnaise, raw cod roe, shiozu There are people who say, “This is the right ingredient for onigiri after all!” and people who say, “I want to choose ingredients that I don’t usually get!” but most of them buy 4 to 6 types each for a good balance. You can also choose double servings (double the amount of ingredients), large servings (large servings of rice), or half servings (less rice). Representative Masanobu Goda’s thoughts on “Konga” I met Yumiko Ukon, the proprietress of Bongo, and I really wanted to follow her. I immediately quit my job, trained at Bongo for about half a year, and finally opened a store. We want our customers to say it’s delicious! I want my rice balls to make you smile! The rice balls of “Onigiri Bongo” are made with this feeling in mind over the past 60 years. Through Onigiri Konga, I would like to help Ukon’s dream of delivering Onigiri Bongo’s onigiri to as many people as possible. We look forward to your visit. 〇Store information Address: 3F Food Plaza, Terminal 2 Building, 3-4-2 Haneda Airport, Ota-ku, Tokyo 144-0041 Transportation: 1 minute walk from Haneda Airport Terminal 1 and 2 Station Contact us 03-6428-8750 Possibility of reservation Possible Business hours: 9:00-18:00 (*Opens at 11:00 on November 8th.)
