Nishitokyo, Tokyo, Japan｜上海菜館 中華料理

I go here often. It is run by a Chinese couple. Naturally, my sensibilities are different from Japanese people's, so I don't recommend ramen. The one-of-a-kind dim sum (dumplings, xiao long bao, spring rolls, etc.) are hard and not juicy, probably because they are made in advance. Instead, set meals and a la carte dishes are delicious. The taste is definitely different from what I'm used to from chain restaurants. If you eat here when you're tired, you'll recover.

A Chinese restaurant that embodies fast, cheap, delicious food. I feel at ease every time with the cheerful customer service from the cheerful female owner. No matter what you order, the cost performance is the best, but the black and sour pork and double-pot meat are especially recommended. As of March 2021, it is only open for takeout. I order it several times a month, and the quantity and taste are just the same as when I was eating in.

It's a great deal and has a lot of volume. It controls the volume accordingly for adult men and children and women who are likely to eat less. I appreciate that kind of consideration that you can't get at chain stores.
