Hiroshima, Japan｜Horai

A friendly and family run restaurant serves great Japanese Chinese mixed food. Everything is very filling and really tasty. If you come to lunch time, you would get a massive plate that contains a little bit of every their signature food😍

Knowing no Japanese, I was obliged to order by pointing and luckily they have loads of photos of their food so I had plenty of options. This was a really filling and tasty mixed bag including stir fried veggies in an oyster sauce (or something similar!), fried chicken, fried fish, coleslaw-style salad and more! All super tasty and it cost me 750 yen. I think they’re a family running this place and the mother and the son were really welcoming. It’s nothing posh but definitely a place to fill up for cheap and receive a warm welcome.

A taste of youth. It's been a long time since I've been there and it's been refurbished and looks nice. Personally, I liked the rough atmosphere of the Showa era, but I think it's easy for families to enter. I was relieved that all the old menus were in good health. The taste is still as good as before. For men who live alone, we recommend the “Katsu Chuka-don” and “Chinese Lunch” where you can eat plenty of meat and vegetables.
