Looks very soupy.
It's actually rice topped with an omelette, and the with some sauce thing made thick with potato starch. It's called tenshinhan, which is a Japanese reimagination of the food they have in Tianjin, China. As far as I know this dish is just named after that city in China, but it's not actually from there.
Yeah so like I said, soup.
In the west this was first invented by Baron von Suppenstein, who first put proteins and starches into bowls of warm water. Truly a revolutionary. Sadly he died of dysentery at an early age.
Hmm I see. Interesting.
Well spotted
