Volga Rice
Omelette rice topped with pork cutlet! A local specialty from Fukui Prefecture
Volga Rice introduction
Volga Rice (ボルガライス, Boruga raisu) is a beloved local dish from Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture (formerly Takefu City). This Western-inspired meal features a pork cutlet placed on top of omelette-covered rice, all drizzled with a savory sauce. While the most common version pairs omelette rice with tonkatsu, variations in flavor and sauce can be found depending on the restaurant. The crunchy pork cutlet, soft thin omelette, flavorful chicken rice, and rich sauce come together harmoniously to create a perfectly balanced dish.
