Sicilian Rice
Sicilian Rice (シシリアンライス, Shishirian Raisu) is a beloved local dish from Saga that may surprise you—not for its link to Sicily (which remains a mystery), but for its flavor-packed simplicity and regional charm. This casual yet satisfying meal features a base of rice topped with juicy fried meat, fresh vegetable salad, and a drizzle of mayonnaise. It's a dish that blends comfort and creativity.
What makes Sicilian Rice truly special is how each restaurant in Saga adds its own twist. Some places use regular beef or chicken, while more upscale spots upgrade the dish with premium Saga Beef or even wild boar. Some even experiment with sauces and toppings to create a more refined experience. Still, at its heart, it’s always about the hearty trio—rice, meat, and salad—making it a must-try for food lovers exploring Saga.
