Ota Stadium is a baseball stadium located in Ota-ku, Tokyo, at Oi Pier Central Seaside Park. The lush green surroundings and the close proximity to Haneda Airport, where you can watch planes take off and land, make the location very appealing.
What catches the eye at the stadium's food stands are the large onigiri. These handmade delicacies stand out from convenience store onigiri with their unique flavors. The modest seasoning, with reduced salt, brings out the flavor of the rice and ingredients to the fullest.
When eaten warm, the fresh aroma and soft texture of the onigiri spread in the mouth. The generous fillings of salmon, kelp, and other ingredients make it a satisfying meal.
A highly recommended accompaniment to onigiri is the pork soup. It features not only pork but also daikon radish, carrot, burdock root, green onion, taro, and other plentiful ingredients, making it rich and flavorsome. The slightly sweet seasoning makes it easy to eat, and it comes in a lidded container, allowing you to enjoy the hot soup for a long time.
Ota Stadium is host to the spring high school baseball tournament and amateur team games, providing excellent playing conditions. The close distance between the audience and the players allows for a close-up experience of the players' performance, making it an appealing feature.
Baseball fans can not only enjoy the game but also take a walk in the green space facing the Pacific Ocean and savor the delicious onigiri. It is a precious baseball holy site where you can experience the taste of handmade onigiri.
