Score cool Japanese finds and eats at Konbini in Robinsons Magnolia

Located at the ground floor right next to Rustan's Marketplace, it's impossible to miss Konbini's facade, especially since the dining area calls you right in. You'll find shelves upon shelves of Japanese goods—from pantry staples to all kinds of drinks, frozen goods, hard-to-find treats, and more—in this easy-to-navigate shop. At the end of the store is a small dining area with views right into the kitchen for a quick and hearty meal of gyoza, ramen, and whatnot. 

We spotted all sorts of cool Japanese goods, but what stole our attention has to be the candy from Kracie Popin' Cookin'. You know the ones where you make classic Japanese dishes only tiny and made out of candy? Yup, you can cop a box or two, or 10, here starting at around P200 here. We also spotted Fujiya Milky candy and many more treats.
