◯Katsu curry (large serving) When used in February 2023 Last time, I had the Katsudon, which is said to be the most popular dish at the restaurant, and I was able to fully enjoy it, which was at the top of my class in both taste and volume, so this time I was looking forward to the Katsucurry, which was ranked second. Although it wasn't as filling as a large serving of katsudon, I was satisfied with the popularity of the katsu curry with its rich curry. The fried garlic that came with it and the pickled carrots that served as a substitute for rakkyo (rakkyo) were surprisingly good. There was also a mini salad as an accompaniment, and many women ordered the cutlet curry, perhaps because it looked gorgeous (there were two people who requested less rice, as expected, haha) Please note that the spiciness of the curry will pick up a bit later on, but it's not a big deal, so most people don't need to worry. This time, it was a busy time with a large number of customers, less than an hour after noon, so the owner's ``grievous voice'' as he was busy cooking alone in the kitchen could be heard... I was fine with this as I had prior knowledge that this was just a rumor, but I sympathize with the young customers who were obviously using it for the first time and were taking it lightly. Many of the shopkeepers were harshly complaining about serving hot food to customers as soon as possible, so I thought it would be nice if they could just change the way they phrased it. I guess it's because of the craftsmanship. However, I feel a little sorry for the customer service staff who were so careful about the store owner's movements. For now, as a customer, I don't care and don't care ♪ spirit. You can get delicious food at a cheap price, and next time I'll try the original cutlet curry at a less busy time as a revenge. ◎Katsudon (large serving) December 2022 First visit use On my first visit, I had a large serving of Nikota Shokudo's katsudon, which was very appealing in both its volume and flavor, made with tender, high-quality domestic pork. The sweetness of the soup stock is modest, the amount of soup is limited, and the katsudon is topped with an egg, making it my favorite katsudon where you can taste the sweet fat of the pork in your mouth. The meat is quite thick at 1.5 to 2 cm, but perhaps due to the good quality of the meat and the careful cooking, it was soft, and other than the streaks in a small part of the thick fat, there was no hardness that is common with thick meat. It's simply delicious! '' One word. I looked at the menu in advance on Google Maps, and found that a large bowl of rice was only 100 yen extra, which is quite cheap, so I called a few days in advance and paid the additional fee, so I could have it made into a ``full-fledged large portion'' like a special portion. When I asked if it was possible, I was told that it was not necessary, as the amount of rice was already large and that a large serving would require a considerable increase in the amount of rice. I was skeptical, wondering, ``Is it really possible to get such a large serving for just an additional 100 yen these days?'' But I was shocked to see the Katsudon being carried so heavy by the woman who was serving me on that day... The lid of the bowl... Appeared with the lid not closing (lol) The amount of rice alone was probably close to 2 cups. If you include the thick cutlet, I'm sure it will weigh over 1kg. Is it really okay to offer this at a low price of 1000 yen?!This is a level of volume that makes me feel sorry. However, as I wrote in the previous section, the quality of the food is completely different from restaurants that only sell quantity, and the quality of the katsudon can compete with the taste of the food... so I was surprised by the large serving size. Many of our regular customers order the daily lunch menu, which is different from the regular menu, and when we watch it being served, we can see from the size of the bowl that it would definitely be a large serving at a normal restaurant. . Additionally, the woman who was serving us was at the highest level of service and attentiveness, making us tea several times as soon as we were seated, and wiping down the glass that had condensed due to the cold weather. If the food tastes good, the portions are large, it's reasonably priced, and the customer service is good, you'll be very satisfied with your full stomach, with the determination to return early in the new year. Thank you for your support, I will visit you again.

First visit due to word of mouth. A bright voice said, "Welcome" right away😃. He looked at my bag and casually prepared a basket 🧺 for my luggage. The store has a bright atmosphere with individual tables and counters. There is a list of sumo wrestlers😁. Tsure is Cantonese noodles 🍜. I ordered black garlic curry 🍛. The one-push cutlet bowl is the next fun 🤗. It is written that the rice has a lot of volume, but Cantonese noodles also have a lot of soup. I like it because of its gentle taste😋. Black garlic curry is not so intense and has a mild taste. Braised beef and vegetables are also delicious. Curry rice was normal😚. Full stomach and satisfied heart. It was really delicious. Thank you for the meal 😋.
