Abiko, Chiba, Japan｜中むら家

2022.06.24 (Friday) Weather: Sunny Open 17:30 I went at 5:35 PM. There were no previous customers. There were no customers for a long time except for three people who entered the counter around 18:00. I ordered the pork cutlet set meal for 1,430 yen. This place is mainly a tempura restaurant. When ordering tempura, you can have it fried at the counter, but in the case of tonkatsu, it seemed like it was fried inside in a separate oil. The tonkatsu itself was delicious and gave me the feel of a first-class fried food restaurant. I would like to try tempura next time. You can use PayPay for payment.

The tempura fried right in front of you is exquisite. The shrimp are also processed thoroughly so you can eat them head first. It was delicious. I was also happy with the thoughtfulness of the master. As others have mentioned, credit cards are not accepted, so be prepared with cash.

Visited again at night for the first time in 4-5 years. I wonder how things are going after the corona period? That's what I thought as I entered the store. Today I ordered tempura/matsu course and some snacks. The tempura was very delicious with a thin batter that brought out the deliciousness of the ingredients. The volume is also sufficient. The sashimi and raw yuba sashimi that came with the course were also delicious. The ``soft boiled octopus'' that I ordered separately from the course had a light seasoning, but the large octopus legs were soft and easy to eat, and they were perfect for pairing with alcohol. I could see the careful workmanship in both the tempura and the snacks. It was a restaurant that I wanted to support, with beautiful tatami rooms and warm customer service, although it wasn't flashy. I can't go there often at night, but I would like to visit for lunch next time.
