This American-turned-Japanese convenience store isn’t really as popular as its competitors, but if you do nd yourself inside one, you’re in for one hell of a treat. The tables are equipped with outlets (at least in the big, fancy Makati branch), they have their own karinderia serving hot meals with unlimited rice, and they’ve got their own exclusives like bamboo charcoal soft-serves and green tea mix ice cream. I don’t really know why they would have that kind of avor, but a awson store is crazy good, but also crazy sad, considering that convenience stores aren’t really that convenient if they’re far from wherever you are. The people who live near one are truly blessed. ou could probably go a week just mixing and matching whatever hot food they have for sale and you wouldn’t get tired. That’s the millennial cheapskate’s dream.
