Japanese Convenience Stores Are Coming to America — Sort Of | Eater

"A compact Momofuku outpost in Hudson Yards that mixes Korean and Japanese convenience-store elements: packaged snacks like Hi-Chew and Pocky sit alongside a kitchen producing items such as potato salad sandos on fluffy milk bread and crisp, juicy chicken katsu cutlets. In addition to food, the shop stocks small convenience items—mouthwash, condoms, phone chargers, over-the-counter pain relief and other last-minute necessities—packing a curated, small-footprint version of a conbini into roughly 400 square feet and acting as one of the few inexpensive food options inside an otherwise luxury development." - Tim Forster
