The lunch place this time was Marugame Udon, a Japanese-style food place that offers large noodles or Udon, rice, and various fritters.
The place is cozy and clean. Since it was past lunchtime the place was not too crowded.
Japanese food is delicious. This time my friend and I did not eat udon but ordered rice as our lunch menu.
The dining system here is self service. We choose the menu we want to order, take the tray and wait for the order to be completed, not waiting long for approximately 7 minutes.
Then choose additional fried foods available in the display case then we go to the cashier to order drinks, most often ocha tea and ice lemon tea which can be refilled at will. You will be given an empty glass and then pay.
Additional condiments such as crisps, chili, sauce, soy sauce, spring onion are also available on one side and can be taken as much as you like.
I ordered the Spicy Tori rice which contained rice, savory chicken pieces and spicy mushrooms, nori, pickle and an egg.
It was savory and a little spicy but when the egg was stirred with the rice, it became a little creamy because the egg was not perfectly cooked. Mixed with the crispy top, it adds a crunchy texture when eaten. I ate it by stirring everything in the bowl like a bibimbap. Delicious!
And my friend ordered the Beef Curry Rice because she doesn't like chicken. The filling was rice with Beef Sukiyaki mixed with curry paste plus chopped spring onion and pickle. With additional fried Chikuwa Chesse, Ebi Tempura, Beef Croquette, and Skewered Tofu Roll. My favorite is the Chikuwa Chesse Japanese-style. It's fish cake that fried in tempura flour and parsley strips with cream cheese filling.
My stomach was full and my heart was happy.
