LA Is Obsessed With Konbi's Japanese-Style Sandwiches
La is obsessed with everything trendy and instagrammy
Shallow people
In Japan it’s a convenience store food for around 3-4 dollars.. But i dont mind them making it a trend. It’s their 15 dollars. Like cup noodles suddenly becoming a popular in instagram and not just to college students.
I need to move from this city....
LA is also full of unstable people on anti-depressants so i wouldn't trust anything that comes out of there.
Thats how screwed up people from the West coast are
Who this is not for:
Japanese People
People who can cook at home
People who are smart with their money
lol love it
Good thing it's in LA then.
Well at this point anything can be done at home, as soon as you know how
Peoplewho dont have money.
@@kalbokaokafor Ah yes, sandwiches... the indicator of wealth.
She's impressed that they use an egg slicer. Food 'journalism' has hit rock bottom.
Haha yeah "painstakingly" made me chuckle
Brilliant point!
What foodie pronounces it Cat-Soo?
And the bread has a little squish .
Its funny the way pepple describe items thats been around and its new to them but certain people make it seem like they discovered it and thus its a now new thing to those people when its been done for how long and talk with lack of info that sounds like they add their personal ideas which misleads people.
“Each egg has to be painstakingly peeled by hand” sorry what???
SS10121618 -you get comment of the month 🥇
Timefliesbye Yeah, if you smash a raw egg into your face.
I laughed because she made it sound like they were supposed to peel themselves. Like wtf
Peeling a couple is one thing, peeling 50/day is another. It is painstaking, monotonous, and a pain the ass..
Timefliesbye I wanna know how you peel your eggs because it is probably the easiest to do
LA is obsessed with basic cooking at high school level.
Kudos to the restaurateurs who cash in on that
if it looks hip, modern, and cute, you get profit
Well there are over 10 million people living in L.A. so of course there will be many idiots but also many sensible hard working everyday people. You can't lump everyone together over a few trendy moron hipsters.
When you try to innovate but you get beaten by a bloody store that sells egg sandwiches
An actual good egg salad sandwich isn't easy to come by, a pork cutlet can be involved in making, Japanese omelets aren't made in a traditional north American way. We are talking layers of omelets that are all perfectly cooked. Eggs overcook very easy.
The trick to success is to do something familiar extremely well.. Consistently. Theres nothing high school about that.. Give credit where its due
Get 3$ sandwich in Japan. Get it here for 15$
It's 14 for the katsu, 10 for the other two. If money is a concern for you, change your hustle.
@@godlymajins That doesn't really change the fact that the price is 3x more
Change starts with the individual Yeah it isnt worth going there for those tiny ass sandwiches when you can make it yourself.
Make it yourself, it's a fucken sandwich lol
@@godlymajins i screamed lol, I love snarky remarks
“The bread is fun to hold” - did I hear that right?
This is what happens when your parents let you out of the basement only for Sunday mass
@@dzejms88 🤭🤣
M.L. Flagg 😬😬😬😬
Lol
I had to rewind to see if I heard it too
I'm Japanese. Why am I even watching this video?
I’m gonna go get a sandwich in 7-eleven 👋🏽
Hey bro I want to open aplace like that inner paso, u know what they mix the eggs with?
Now I'm craving. Good thing I live in Saitama. I'm gonna go get me some of those katsu sando and egg sando at the conbini around the corner.
Ha. Good one. 😎🌼
I'm so jealous. I wish I could still walk out of my house and get a mentai mayo omusubi from Family Mart in the middle of the night.
I miss those sandwiches and other snacks at 7 eleven. I wonder if it tastes the same here in LA.
I'm going to open a peanut butter jelly shop in Japan and charge 10$ and place them in a box.
😂😂😂😂
They have a pb&j shop at grand central market in LA. Not gonna lie tho, it’s hella good.
Good idea and to make sure it's guaranteed money, you can get the employees to peel the peanuts by hand ;)
Also Put mashed avocado on it..))
They have those in LA. Its really for the lazy and people who don’t know how to make a simple sandwich
When I went to Japan they sold these at convenience stores for one dollar 😂😂
Lmao I believe it, and you know since it's LA it's probably $15.
Glazed Gacha
I hate the economy and I hate society
Agreed.
OMG yes I was about to say the same thing they are sooooo cheap in Japan, bring them to America and capitalism take over....smdh
Nah lie. You don't remember anything
Reasons she’s _obsessed_ with the egg sandwiches that have literally nothing to do with the taste itself:
4:33 Because they’re pretty.
4:58 The soft egg looks so gorgeous.
5:01 It’s a jewel of an egg.
5:05 They use this really fun little egg slicer.
5:22 The bread has the perfect amount of squish.
5:27 It’s fun to hold in your hand like a little present.
🙄🙄🙄😂
to the comment section:
Don't hate the player, hate the game.
These guys are geniuses...
No kidding. Everyone here is just salty they didn’t think of it first 🤷♀️
Nobody is hating the food, they're hating the host for dumbing shit down.
LA native here. No, we're not obsessed with a Japanese sandwich that costs $15 at some trendy fusion place. Real people in LA know you can buy one for about $3-5 at a local Japanese grocery store.
Nijiya
Seriously! LA here as well and you can get these and a ton of other versions at your local jspanese market for a fraction of the cost. This is weird and disappointing. I love looking for new interesting places in LA but this misses the mark.
Real LA people will just eat an egg salad sandwich if they want an egg salad sandwich.
How many Japanese grocery stores are there in LA? I've only seen the ones in Little Tokyo and a Mitsuwa in Torrance. I feel like there's more down here in Orange County
bobo flores I live in Palos Verdes! There’s a Nijiya and a Tokyo Central in Torrance too
white bread and egg...phenomenal let's line up
Lilly Despina California tools.
Seems like someone's never had a Japanese 7/11 egg sandwich?
Cyrus Wu They literally taste the same as a homemade egg salad sandwich. It’s really not that exciting.
@@Cryosxify yeah around 3$ in tokyo and 15$ in LA. Lol. Hipsters have money.
😂 My mum was making egg mayo sandwiches for me when I was like 2... 28 years ago!!
“...wanted a change of pace from the slog that is New York restaurant life..”
In other words, New Yorkers weren’t gullible enough to pay $15 for white bread and boiled eggs, so they came to LA....
🤑
"This is gonna be one of those days that I eat everything in front of me"
one egg salad sandwich. LOL
Simply mashing hard boiled egg with mayonnaise, salt and black pepper, then grilling the sandwich creates the simplest but most satisfying sandwich.
Doesn't taste the same
Paper
I’m gonna go home and make some 🔥🔥
Egg mayo mashed and drizzled with honey, topped with cashews and capers.👌
@@MintyMiku It would, if I say it's 15 bucks and you have to wait 2 hours in line to get it.
Each egg has to be painstakingly peeled by hand......how can anyone even say this and expect to be taken seriously?? 🙄
Fridays Child looooool
she hasnt peeled an egg before. she dont know
@Papa Jose high rents doesnt make peeling a egg harder tho. It's the same amount of effort
Maybe she meant considering how many of those sandwiches they have to make each day
I seriously lol'ed hard when I heard her. I mean seriously what's so special in a sandwich which people don't know. So she has to crap out something to lengthen the vid
2:50 “Each egg has to be painstakingly peeled by hand.”
Most restaurants peel their own eggs “painstakingly” by hand lol.
Oh so when my mom packed this into my lunch in elementary school it’s gross but now it’s trendy?
Literally
The difference is your mom just threw that together with no sauce, and didn't care how the egg was cooked. And it was gross.
People pay extra for good food. How is that surprising??
Jaja Jinks oh??? And you’ve tried my moms cooking? And what I’m saying is that this shit has been around and I’ve always been eating this and it’s good. But people then thought it was gross. Nowadays, once a dish gets popular on Instagram suddenly everyone agrees that it’s good regardless of what they thought before
@@sillaykara6245 how often does your mom make these sandwiches to you?
@@sillaykara6245 welcome to pop culture my friend
I'm japanese and I'm struggling to make sense of what makes this generic looking sandwich that costs like $15 "japanese". Oh right, they put mirin in it 😏 This is a glamorized convenience store food that you can get in japan like 3 bucks. Higher quality? please lol
Nichi kun
They cut it in 3 and place it sideway in a box. That gets the stupid hipsters all riled up because it’s so Japanese.
If the food is more expensive than in Japan and a japanese said so then surely something wrong there.
Yeah i mean ... its like eggs in white bread. What the hell?
how much is the airfare to japan??? just to get a 3$ sandwich
Japanese food items here in our country are absurdly expensive but charging 10 to 15 dollars for a sandwich you can make at home? Thats criminal!
"This is not something you get easily in the States" loll ever heard of a kitchen?
That is rude lol
@@hana1042 sherry wang be quiet
Sherry Wang so....do you?
Ikr LOL
Great comment
I was born and raised in LA. I am not "obssessed" with these sandwiches. Neither is my family or any of my friends.
Yah right. You and your hole family are eating Japanese sandwiches right now.
If Fool Insider tells us you're obsessed, you better be!
I live in la, never head of this restaurant until watching this
Lol is everyone in LA lack basic cooking skills that they are impressed by a damn omelette sandwich?
welcome to millennial gen
Yes LA is a shit show
Well, I am. I can't make a basic sandwich.
@@leesteal4458 sad.
Lee Steal yikes
“Each egg has to be painstakingly peeled by hand” yup, that’s pretty much how you eat eggs XD
They shipped a real Japanese ninja just to peel the eggs
Or u can just put em in a mason jar and shake
Like in the olden days! I bet her parents bored her to tears telling her all about how they had to peel their own eggs when they were young. There wasn't any of these crazy fancy egg peeling machines you see nowadays......wait
I used to work at a chain-diner. Our hard boiled eggs came in pre-cooked and swimming in some cloudy liquid. I'd much rather know that the kitchen peels each egg by hand than think about the cold, overcooked eggs we had in the kitchen.
Yep, “painstakingly” is used to describe egg peeling... this says it all. Wtf only in L.A
For $15 you could make 20 of these sandwiches at home....
Keyword: make
Alternative keywords: pay, sit, eat
@@francistan4674 still, 15 dollars
😂🤣🤣🤣 they like the box , the way they sell them in Japan in a cute little box ( like they do a lot of things there in cutesy little things)
In LA it’s all about the packaging and presentation as well 🙄 .
If i just know i can make money in making simple sandwich...im asian want go US and make simple asian food ang make money 😂🤣 we have many egg slicer in kitchen tho...no wonders many asian make $$$
Foods out of African countries too.

15 bucks for an egg salad sandwich...nahhhh bro.

I’d make that for free at my house😂😂
Yeah, I can make something like that for less than $1
Edit:US makes everything expensive as shit
I mean look at Apple
They spend $100-$200 To make an iPhone X then sell it for $1000
Profit margins are ridiculous in US
I agree

Lol 😂
"Fun little egg slicer"
Is a totally normal egg slicer that unusual in LA? 😅
I swear, LA is always obsessed with simple and overly expensive foods. Tried Pink's hotdog because of the hype, not even worth the price. Avacado on toast? I can make that at home. Theres so many of these overly hyped foods...Guess its just the social media/instagram influences around here.
all i had to do was cut my egg salad sandwhich into rectangles growing up and i could have had millions by now 😂😂
You forgot the box.
"each egg is painstakingly peeled by hand"...ma'am how else are they supposed to do it
Edit: wow thanks for the likes and the interesting ways of how to peel eggs on the replies lol
😂😂😂
min yoongleee
Yup, one of the many ways. I’ve even seen machines to do that particular task.
Most restaurants order hard-boiled eggs which are already shell free and kept in a liquid of preservatives. If you check the ingredients in the liquid...you would never eat them again.
@@tylermoses8104 what? For real? Boiling an egg is so simple, what even is the point?
This is over exaggeration
I love how clean cut and tightly packaged they are
That one customer nailed the secret: “They do one thing and they do it very well.”
Hear that McDonalds (and every other fast food restaurant)?! Get back to your basics!!
Me: how much for fries?
LA: 15 dollars please
Only tourists pay that much... sucker
@@breakyoselffool that's shit bruh
People are so gullible when it comes to feeling "hip and trendy".
thats the trend nowadays.

Those Yelpers that got raised on Mc Donalds and potato chips think that they got food culture all figured out. Please tell me what is good food so I don't have to make up my mind for anything. Herd mentality.
@@youareajackass2005 ...L.A is one of the best food cities on planet earth...most L.A natives grow up eating food from all over the world...your analysis couldn't be further from the truth...sorry pal

I made this today, exactly as the recipe posted online, and I can say that this is without a doubt an egg salad sandwich.
Those sandwiches look good! Thank you, for sharing! :)
Just a glorified egg salad sandwich that cost $15. 🤦♂️
Cause this price includes fee for advertising on BI
b-b-but... these “japanese style sandwiches” are a japanese twist on american sandwiches lol. Genius to sell these “back” to gullible americans for as much as $15
Dumbass americanos
Lol very true. And they used american eggs which are yellowed color yolk instead of Japanese eggs that looks very healthy and slightly orange looking yolk. I never liked using american eggs for my sandwiches but no choice.hahaha
Let’s be a bit more specific “average gullible American citizen in LA”
Angel Luxxe Aren’t Japanese eggs safe enough that you can eat them raw?
@@parkchimmin7913 yes, I've had japanese raw eggs before I poured it to my rice and eat it as is. It was very delicious. I didnt get sick or anything.😁
Me, a Japanese person who’s been eating this for years: c:
"high quality ingredients done right" or "high quality ingredients made well" If I hear that one more time....
"High quality ingredients" mate it's an egg and some bread 🤣
The eggs cost .45 cents and the sandwich cost $15, the profit is crazy
They gotta pay for labor, rent, license, etc. It adds up
welcome to capitalism kid
SuperDunkerJyun yup. They should do it for free!
@@jyun3102 absolutely
This is more of an example of Socialism, that $15 mark is thanks to the stupid high taxes in California.
How do you charge 15 bucks for a sandwich?
Easy, just say everything is painstakingly made by hand.
A simple sandwich has to be that expensive for the real estate prices they’re paying. Also the owners have clout because they’re from momofuku
Been to Japan over thirty times over the years and the sandwiches are so good! These look delicious too.
Konbi literally means convenience in Japanese but that price tag definitely isn't. 🙄
2 slices of wonderbread: ($0.20) + 2 hard boiled eggs: ($0.40) + squirt of mayo ($0.10) = $15.00 ?!?
That's why I'm out of love with L.A. you're not paying for the sandwich. You're paying their expensive rent, their spoiled food, the fact that they're popular on Instagram.
Get it for 2$ in Japan and get it for 20$ in LA
Lol so true your comment. They make it seem like ultimate recipe or something. It's siiimple!! I don't understand why people pay lots of money for that ??
The twink behind the counter is making that mandatory minimum $20 an hour so he can afford his phone bill and Starbucks so the savings are passed on ;)
My logic exactly. Only idiots will pay that much
Only hipsters could pay 15 bucks for a cute egg sandwich and think it was worthy
I could make you a dozen of the best egg salad sandwiches you've ever had for $15...
Hipsters are okay paying too much money for alot of things.
Call it vintage and receive even more money
The same people will shut down freeways because of how much money someone else has..
so true! these people are idiots
Literally making this at my house right now. I just can’t see myself paying for this 😂. Maybe another day 😂
Going to japan for the first time in 3 days with some friends and I can’t wait for the sandwiches there :3
this obsession makes alot of sense, that looks so good.
So a Japanese sandwich is a regular sandwich cut in threes and laid sideways. Got it. That'll be 15 bucks.
Lol no, I have to say it seems simple but it's not a regular sandwich like you would ever find in the US. You just don't simply see these kinds of ingredients unless it's in a Japanese sandwich. These people are definitely flipping out to hard but they are good. Especially ones from Lawson lol
Yeah “Japanese style”... just like 7-eleven
One mistake they make--they don't cut the crusts completely off. (That must be why they can charge so much...)
@@fourthpanda you dont see egg and mayo sandwiches in the us? It's extremely common ...
@@hidansbutt Not with dashi. You don't see sandwiches with dashi in the US. Very different flavor.
You can easily make this yourself instead of spending $10-$15.
Do u know its RM30 in malaysia do u know how fcking expensive is that😭
That was stupid. You can make anything from any restaurant, that's not the point AT ALL.
b king RM30 for an egg sandwich? Your sandwich better be made from fking gold
Luka Paraíso
This is not even a restaurant. In a restaurant you pay for the fancy look of the dish, the service and the athmosphere. It’s just a hipstery diner.
If you like to eat overpriced crap, kudos to you.
@@margaritam.9118 see where you ignorance is going? First this presentation is even inferior to a Japanese egg sandwich, it is a lot more expensive because 1) its for the whole process (foreign food with a bit of quality suffers from that) 2)it's really specific so they need to make the brand to make it conquer a niche. Im not ok with 15 dollars but still... We need to think about others and educate ourselves to understand.
Not only LA is impressed but my family in Canada is impressed too. Will try for my next breakfast
I’m glad they kept showing how to cut a sandwich as I couldn’t work it out.
I live in LA and this is the first time Ive heard of this place.

Katsu sando (pork sandwich) is definitely my favorite, pretty much eat those daily always when I go to Japan.
Oooh! Those sandwiches look sooo good 😋
I've lived in LA...all my life. I'm Asian. I consider myself a foodie. This is not an LA Food Obsession. I know this kind of sandwich, because I'm Asian. But nobody's going crazy over them. Really.
Basically an egg sanga that we have here all the time in Oz with a Japanese cutting
LA is obsessed with everything, especially when you pay 10 times the price for it.
Wow. Who knew an egg salad sandwich with the crust cut off was a Japanese style sandwich? 🙄
Moron
Yeah .
La is sooo obsessed..i live in LA and am an uber driver...have never even heard about this
America is just out of control, in every possible way, 15$ for a sandwich? and u are even praising it?
edit: the ingredients are so basic and cheap, however nicely you put them together.
Even in Tokyo, which is an expensive city, they could sell those for half the price max!
so much bad food in the US. you have no idea.
This is what happens when your socialist politicians tell businesses they have to pay there employees $15 hr
Sergio Beltran The minimum wage in LA right now is $11 lmao.

How much is it?
People want it for the aESthEtiC and not because they actually appreciate and respect Japanese culture.
The Psychic Cell Phones Well, the “culture” of these sandwiches is that they’re mass-produced and sold in every convenience store in Japan, so... Nobody is really infringing on sacred ground, here.
They are paying a lot for cheap sandwiches, though. 😆
Dj Ghoul TOUCH, how much was the flight to Japan? ;) That is the thing with these sandwiches as you won't find the same thing in most places in America. So they are special here but whether they are worth what they are charging is a different matter.

Pretty much. I mean this shit is nothing special, not saying it isn’t good, but anyone can make this at home with similar results.
Idk why they always hype up simple, foreign things up, America sounds veru stupid and uncultured at times.
Honestly, it feels like these food-tubers BS a lot of the hype just to get views. I live in LA, I visit some of these hyped up places, and they're all... hype.
Self entitled privileged greedy SJW Feminist BLM LGBTQ instagram Democrats love this crap !
Just like the peanut butter and jelly restaurant lmfaoo plus how you gonna say it's a Japanese sandwich when there's a bunch of white people working there😂😂
I eat this sandwich so I can post it on Instagram for all my followers.

Lol no, I have to say it seems simple but it's not a regular sandwich like you would ever find in the US.

@@fourthpanda Yeah, the ones from Lawson and 7-Eleven are dope. I had a variety pack of sandwiches from Lawson, will never forget the flavor. Goes well with beer too.

Just wanted to give context.
@@fourthpanda it's simple and it's a regular sandwich, over hyping and overreacting it's the reason why it's popular and pricey. they are delicious tho
@@fourthpanda did you copy and paste your comment?
Love how they act like this sandwich and the way they make it (especially the egg cutter is super glamorised - I have the same one at home) is so revolutionary it should cost 15$ like you couldn't make it at home
Fr, the cutter is at most 2 dollars so even the “uniform” taste of the egg can be achieved at your own house lol
*LA is obsessed with these sandwiches*
in other words, a few people who live in LA probably a tiny minuscule fraction of the population have been eating these sandwiches which represents a normal number of clients for servicing that allows a sandwich shop to survive
LA gotta be the most ignant fkin place on Earth, how is this a product ur gonna try and jazz up on a YT vid and try to sell it off for being more than just a basic egg sandwich
I went here today because of this video. The food was fine 👌
I still remember having my first konbini pork katsu sandwich when visiting Japan more than a decade ago. It had a little wasabi on the inside of the bread. It was a revelation.
“Painstakingly peeled” lmao
They're really out there eating egg salad and porkchop sandwiches like it's the height of fashion 😂...congrats to the owners, man.
Lol I can’t believe there is such a craze around an egg sandwich
Thanks for the tutorial gonna make it at home now
If there’s a chick with a beanie and prescription glasses eating there, save your money !
Joke's on you! Those aren't prescription
h z that is what I wanted to say , was trying to make it short
That Katsu sando looked next level
From these comments, I love how the rest of America always think they know what LA is obsessed with, and then try to make fun of a trend that doesn’t even exist. No, LA is not obsessed with Japanese sandwiches. Just because everyone writes about LA, doesn’t mean LA actually cares about it as much as the rest of the world likes to think that we care.
