Nara, Japan｜Richo-en Nara

Love this joint. Tons of menu options, I love their soup dishes. Pretty cheap and everything I’ve had has tasted excellent. Generous portions. I’ve seen longish lines at dinner times on weekends as it’s fairly popular. They also have a selection of Korean foods and sundries for sale at the front if you need to pick up some kimchee or kankoku nori. Easily my favorite restaurant in this mall.

The cheap interior is charming. The store clerk is nice, cheap, and delicious! It was the first time in my life that I had a second serving of kimchi. Rather than being spicy, it was really delicious.

All the staff are cute, polite and have a nice smile. The food is delicious and it's good to come again and again. Kimchi is also delicious, so I will buy it and take it home.
