Chikuma, Nagano, Japan｜杏苑 (Kyoen)

2023/10/7 (Sat) On the way back from Nagano City where I went to check my bike 🔧🏍️ I stopped by for lunch ☀️🍴🏍️ A [Chinese Sichuan cuisine] restaurant inside the Sasaya Hotel🍜🍴 Order “Chen Mapo Tofu Set Meal” from the Lunch menu🍜📝 My tongue goes numb from the first bite👅🔥 Deep flavor and addictive deliciousness 🍜😲💕 I replaced the rice and finished the Chen mapo tofu🍚🍚😋 The accompanying "Annin tofu" was the first time I tasted the special [Masamune Annin] and it was delicious 🍮😱💕 The two additional pieces of “Harumaki” I ordered were also delicious😋💕

It was more delicious than any Chinese food I've ever eaten. Everything from the spring rolls to the mapo tofu to the zha cai was delicious. If you are staying at Sasaya Hotel, you can have dinner here (Kyoen). Lunch is well worth the price. Before I ate it, I thought it was a little expensive for lunch. I think the quantity is commensurate with the price, and the taste is worth more than the price. My child, who ordered the ramen type, didn't seem to like it at all.

This is a recommended restaurant when you want to spend a leisurely and precious time. The staff at the store were also sincere, and even when the children caused trouble, they responded smartly. I was very grateful. The food was delicious, of course, and the ingredients and preparation were perfect. I will continue to use it. When the corona calms down, I'm looking forward to the revival of the meal and hot spring set!
