Koga, Ibaraki, Japan｜小さな小さなしあわせ処 ましらこ

If you make a reservation by phone and tell them when to go, they will prepare a seat for you and the food will be served smoothly. Although it is located in a corner of a residential area, the atmosphere inside the store is calm with a retro feel. It feels like there are four table seats. The menu is one type of daily lunch set. There seems to be a cake coffee set, but it was only a meal without being asked if it was busy. There were only regulars (female) around, and she seemed happy to talk to everyone. And the regulars helped clean up the dishes. It was a homely sight. The atmosphere of the store is also good, and I want to go back regularly.

This store is my favourite. Before corona, I went out to eat several times, but when I found out that they had takeout, I ordered twice. Both are vegetable bento boxes, and the taste is gentle or homely, and I want to eat them every week. I ordered 850 yen for both times, but the amount is quite large. It's staggering to eat. I ordered over the phone in the morning and went to pick it up in the evening. The shop itself opens at 11:30, but I called before 10:00 and they responded immediately. It is recommended shop. The location can be a little confusing. The parking lot is so small that only 4 cars can be parked.

I was curious after reading everyone's reviews, but I couldn't go because I was weighing up the fear and the small parking lot versus my love for vegetable-filled rice. I suddenly decided to walk there today, so I made a reservation over the phone and went. Thank you to everyone who wrote reviews without getting angry. What I think is that delicious and healthy food and customer service are two different things. It's rare to have fish, meat, and tofu all as protein sources, and when you consider the nutritional balance, quality, and quantity of items, it's understandable that you don't have the luxury of doing so. I don't dislike honest customer service, even if it's more unfriendly than a fake smile. Today, the place was full, and when I approached her after everyone's food and desserts had been served, she spoke to me with a big smile. I think people who ask for service will definitely feel uncomfortable, so I think it would be better to go to another shop.
