Kagoshima
A specialty served to guests in Amami-oshima Island since 370 years ago
Keihan
Keihan is a dish with white rice topped with a variety of condiments and soaked in chicken broth. Toppings include strips of cooked chicken, sliced omelet, shitake and pickled papaya, garnished with green onion, chopped seaweed, chinpi (citrus peel), sesame seeds and pickled ginger. Broth taken from a whole chicken is poured over the rice to serve. Guests serve their own rice, toppings, garnish and soup in their desired quantities. Garnish often includes local papaya or daikon pickles. There are several keihan specialty shops in Amami city, each offering their own version with locally bred chicken or other unique twists.
