LIVING on JAPANESE CONVENIENCE STORES in TOKYO for 24 HOURS!

24 hour challenge to find the best convenience store (7-Eleven Vs. Lawson Vs. FamilyMart) of Tokyo, Japan! Thanks again to Turo! Get Turo for FREE here: turo.onelink.me/1712264037/2a... use code LIVINGBOBBY15 for $15 off your first trip!
This 24 hour challenge was an awesome travel experience in Tokyo, Japan. Before going to Japan I thought it would be an impossible challenge to living on convenience store / gas station foods like 7-Eleven, but in Tokyo they have anything from a Ramen cooking station, to fried chicken, to pizza to burgers, to burritos to even pork buns. This was one of my top unique experiences in all of Asia (I’ve visited Taiwan and Korea last month), and up there with the dollar meal challenge, and vending machine videos! Enjoy this 24 hour challenge from Tokyo!

[@adriandharma1910]

Hey Bobby, love your vids! I wish I can go back to Japan... should've been back this year but 2020 happened. Anyways, a thing of contention in Japan for convenience stores are the fried chicken they have across the 3 convenience store. Family Mart (Famima is their short form) has Famichiki, 7-11 has Nanachiki, and Lawson has L-Chiki (you pronounce it as Eru-Chiki). You can google these and see exactly what I'm talking about. My personal favourite item from the convenience store is the Egg Sandwich (tamagosando) from 7-11. The other 2 big convenience stores also have their own egg sandwiches with different recipes so you can also compare these as well next time! Hope we can travel again soon!

[@adriandharma1910]

Clearly I commented without finishing the full video but looks like you covered the fried chicken in the 7-11 section, but that's the crispy fried chicken (agedori). The Nanachiki has a better all around flavour in my opinion! And you had the egg sub as well, that's also nice when they run out of egg sandwiches
