Award-Winning Dishes

Angus Beef Sukiyaki & Dashimaki Tamago Nori Bento

The centerpiece of Summit's success is undoubtedly the Angus Beef Sukiyaki & Dashimaki Tamago Nori Bento. Crafted to perfection, this dish features a generous serving of fluffy dashimaki tamago cooked in a rich broth, served without cutting it, creating an impressive presentation on top of the rice. Moreover, the gentle yet flavorful Angus beef sukiyaki, made with care in-store, complements the bento perfectly. The abundance of nori adds a satisfying element to the meal that leaves customers feeling truly fulfilled. This standout bento is priced at 698 yen (tax included: 753.84 yen).

Asian Section Honor: Taiwanese-Style Grilled Dim Sum Set

Another winner for Summit was the Taiwanese-Style Grilled Dim Sum Set, which includes stick gyoza and garlic chive buns. Featuring ingredients sourced within three days of harvest, the chive buns focus solely on the rich flavors of garlic chives and cabbage, avoiding other aromatic vegetables intentionally. The stick gyoza, stuffed with pork and finely seasoned cabbage in oyster sauce, are expertly cooked to achieve a delightful crispiness. This enticing set is available for 498 yen (tax included: 537.84 yen).

Rice Ball Section Winner: Boneless Grilled Mackerel & Spicy Cod Roe Onigiri

Finally, the Boneless Grilled Mackerel & Spicy Cod Roe Onigiri stole the spotlight in the rice ball category.

The mackerel is grilled to perfection in-store and then enveloped with rice alongside the spicy cod roe and takana (pickled mustard leaf). The rice used is a sweet, sticky variety of domestic rice. This fantastic onigiri is priced at 298 yen (tax included: 321.84 yen).
