A must-try for any fan, every bite of fried rice is unforgettable
I'm Juri Sato, a fried rice nutritionist and Japan's biggest fried rice lover. Fried rice is a simple dish, yet it has a deep meaning. There are so many variations, from how lightly the rice is fried, to how it's cooked, with chunky toppings, to even fried rice with a thick sauce.
One of the charms of fried rice is that you can discover different flavors every time you eat it. Today, I'd like to introduce my favorite fried rice that I've tried so far and that made me think, "I'll definitely be ordering this again!" You'll be hooked by the deliciousness of each one the moment you take a bite.
Chotoku
This simple, salty egg fried rice is made with just rice, eggs, and green onions. It's no exaggeration to say that this is the ultimate fried rice. The simple yet delicious flavor spreads softly throughout your mouth, and the texture of the rice as it falls apart sets it apart from other restaurants. We recommend eating it with the popular fried dumplings.

Chinese Restaurant Marufuku
The chopped pork and green peas add a nice touch of color. The fried rice base is made with ham, onion, and egg. The crunchy texture of the onion adds a nice accent and blends beautifully with the umami of the pork. The spicy kick of pepper adds depth to the flavor, making it addictively delicious.
