I purchased kushikatsu and yakitori from Fukunokarasanso in front of Ekoda Station during self-restraint business. I was lured by the sign "Karaage Kappo" and bought it for the first time, but the kushikatsu was fried too much. The yakitori was of a lower level compared to supermarkets or convenience stores. It might be different for karaage, but I have no intention of revisiting. Thank you for the meal.

At a chain store located just down the stairs after exiting the ticket gate at Ekoda Station, they offer not only fried chicken but also skewers. In the evening, unsold items are discounted. One popular item is the "Red Karaage," which is large in size and priced at 230 yen for 2 pieces instead of the usual 330 yen. The flavor is like a spicy Korean chili paste, with a delayed spicy kick. Despite being reheated, the meat is surprisingly tender and not dry. It makes for a good snack with alcohol. It would probably be even more delicious if eaten fresh.

The signboard says "Freshly made declaration!" and "We cook after receiving orders." However, when I ordered, the food was packed from a pile of pre-made items, and they were completely cold. I bought salt koji fried chicken, but since it had been sitting for a while, it lacked the crispy texture and tasted like regular cold fried chicken. I was hoping for freshly fried chicken, so I was disappointed.

I wanted to eat some fried chicken, but couldn't find the kind I wanted at the department store basement, so I remembered this shop and decided to stop by. I had bought from the shop in Shinacho before. The Shinacho shop had a reputation for only selling fried chicken, but the Egota shop also offers a variety of other side dishes like yakitori and inari sushi. It had been a while since I last had their food, so I decided to buy 100g each of their "garlic fried chicken," "soy sauce broth fried chicken," and "salt koji fried chicken" to reminisce about the taste. When I placed my order, the staff recommended the "7-piece assorted fried chicken box" as a better deal, so I ordered that instead. I chose two pieces each of the three types of fried chicken and added one more piece of the "garlic fried chicken." I took them home and lightly reheated them in the toaster, which brought back the juiciness of the fried chicken! Visually, the garlic fried chicken looked the most typical. The soy sauce broth fried chicken and salt koji fried chicken had a white coating, likely made with potato starch. The salt koji fried chicken, in particular, resembled karaage. I tried each of the three types of fried chicken. The garlic fried chicken had a strong garlic flavor. The soy sauce broth fried chicken was lighter than the garlic one, with a sweet soy sauce flavor permeating the chicken well. The salt koji fried chicken was the lightest and softest, thanks to the koji. All three types of fried chicken were very juicy. Personally, I preferred the garlic fried chicken for its strong flavor.

[Visit on 2016.08.30] Location: Just a short walk from Ekoda Station. As soon as you go down the stairs after passing through the ticket gate, you will find this shop right away. I had a "stamina don" nearby, but it wasn't quite satisfying, so I decided to stop by this shop. Besides fried chicken, they also sell yakitori here! I bought one piece each of chicken thigh (110 yen) and chicken skin (110 yen) along with 100 grams of fried chicken (220 yen). Both the thigh and skin had just the right amount of fat and were perfectly grilled, providing a satisfying and delicious taste. I have also purchased fried chicken here before, and it was juicy and delicious as well. I think this is a shop worth visiting at least once. Thank you for the meal.

During the season for outings, our go-to bento place is the fried chicken shop in front of Ekoda Station. With reasonable prices and delicious fried foods, we decided to get our bento for hanami and Golden Week from here this year. It's a reasonably priced chain specializing in fried foods. We headed to Ekoda to pick up bento with my wife and son, who love the cheap and tasty bento. The sign "Fuku Kara" and various fried skewers are displayed in the window. It's hard to choose. This time, we bought the "Tatsuta-age bento" for 420 yen. By the way, the signature bento, "Fuku Karaage bento," is 520 yen. We had a quick meal in the car during our outing. The Tatsuta-age was delicious even when cold, and the rice was not bad. It's affordable and good. We'll continue to make this our go-to place.

I investigated a fried chicken shop in front of Ekoda Station this time. The shop is right in front of the station, called "Fuku no Kara". It might be good for souvenirs at Ekoda Station! The shop is always on my way to the station, but I haven't had a chance to buy anything, so I decided to investigate this time. In addition to fried chicken, they also had grilled chicken skewers. They even had cooked rice dishes! The sign was quite elegant. The juicy fried chicken was delicious. I had 3 pieces of fried chicken for 340 yen, cooked rice for 210 yen, and grilled chicken skewers (with skin) for 100 yen. The total set cost 650 yen. When I got home, I tried the grilled chicken skewers first. It was okay, nothing special for 100 yen. Next, I tried the cooked rice. It was surprisingly good for 210 yen. And finally, the fried chicken. It was juicy and a bit on the salty side. It might be just right to eat it with the cooked rice. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. The shop even had a website prepared. I found out that it is a franchise with over 30 stores in Tokyo!

For me, Ekoda is like a backyard town. I've already visited most of the eateries, but there are still many places I haven't been to. One such place is this shop, a takeout-only fried chicken shop near the station. I ordered the basic fried chicken, which costs 220 yen for 100g, roughly equivalent to 2 pieces. I planned to eat it at home, but it was so warm that I couldn't resist biting into it right there. It was delicious! The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Despite getting some strange looks from passersby, I didn't care. So, unintentionally, I enjoyed a tasty meal on the street.

I sometimes see a takeout-only fried chicken shop in Tokyo. I had been wanting to try it because I always see it when I go to the nearby Tully's. They have two types of fried chicken, regular flavor and garlic flavor. The pieces are quite large, so I wanted to buy just one piece at a time. When I asked the staff, they said it was okay to buy one of each flavor. I also bought a skewer of liver for 110 yen to go with the fried chicken. Two pieces of fried chicken cost 264 yen, which is about 130 yen per piece. It's a bit pricey, but the size is huge. The skewer of liver looks like a toothpick in comparison. This fried chicken made me happy because it's been a while since I had such a big piece. The taste was also good (I prefer the garlic flavor), and if there was one nearby, I might want to eat it occasionally. It could also make a nice gift. It was a good purchase.

The group on the "Nerikaku Tour" left the mysterious izakaya "Juichiya Saketen" and returned to Ekoda Station with Torisuke-san leading the way. The tour leader mentioned, "The next place doesn't have any snacks, so let's buy some here before we go!" Recently, there has been an increase in specialty fried chicken shops, and the visited "Fuku no Kara Ekoda Store" is one of them. With a concept of "not compromising on ingredients and production methods, and prioritizing providing customers with safe and delicious fried chicken," they have 15 stores in Tokyo. According to their website, they have "7 commitments" (taste, chicken, frying oil, product lineup, beauty eggs, rice, water), and they base their flavor on soy sauce, making the coating crispy and the inside juicy, ensuring that the fried chicken tastes good whether warm or cold. Some people even take this fried chicken as a souvenir when staying over at a friend's house. The items purchased as snacks for the izakaya were: - Fuku Karaage: Fried chicken marinated in soy sauce, sake, and mirin, with a hint of ginger aroma and a crispy skin with juicy meat inside. The taste is quite good for the price. - Nankotsu Karaage: Crispy cartilage with a crunchy texture, which is a devilish food for the reviewer. It's so delicious that the reviewer finishes a bag in just a few minutes. It's the ultimate dish for beer. Delicious! The fried chicken from "Fuku no Kara" left the "fried chicken enthusiast" satisfied. It's a versatile dish for home dinners, izakaya snacks, or even as an unexpected guest gift. After this, Belgian beer izakaya will be introduced! Cheers!

The group on the drinking tour moved to the next destination by train, just one station away. The next stop was a liquor store specializing in wine and Belgian beer, but they didn't have any snacks. So, they decided to buy some from a newly opened store in front of Ekoda Station called "Fuku no Kara." It's a takeout shop specializing in fried chicken, with the sign saying "Karaage Kappo." They remembered a time when they bought garlic fried chicken from Fuku no Kara in Kitasenju after drinking at Tokudawara's "Kappo Kuzushi," and the taxi ended up smelling strongly of garlic. To avoid the Seibu Line smelling like garlic, they urged the organizer to buy regular fried chicken this time. They bought some fried chicken and enjoyed it with Belgian beer at the liquor store where outside food was allowed. The fried chicken paired perfectly with the beer, making for a great combination. The crispy cartilage fried chicken was especially delicious, enhancing the beer-drinking experience.

Today, we stopped by this place to grab some snacks before heading to our third destination for the day. We bought 5 regular fried chicken pieces and some cartilage fried chicken. We hopped on the train and headed to the next spot. Cheers with Belgian beer! The fried chicken was delicious, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The regular fried chicken was good, while the cartilage fried chicken was spicy and perfect with shochu. Thank you for the meal. For those using the south exit of Ekoda Station, if you're looking for snacks for home drinking, be sure to stop by our place. It's a perfect match with beer! The bento boxes seem to be popular too.

After leaving Juuichiya, the group headed towards Sakuradai and came across a takeout fried chicken specialty store near the station. The store seemed to be quite popular, with 3-4 people lining up. One of them stood in line while the others took photos of the store. The adults all took out their cameras at once, causing some of the people in line to be surprised. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. They bought garlic-flavored fried chicken and cartilage fried chicken, which they enjoyed at the next store. It wasn't incredibly delicious, but it was tasty and went well with alcohol. Overall, it was a good meal, but not worth waiting in line for. Thank you for the meal.

What do you do with fried chicken? - "Fuku no Kara Egotanda Store" (Seibu Ikebukuro Line Ekoda Station) During the Nerima Sumo Wrestling Tour with the Red Ball Brothers, after leaving the corner store Tenichaya Saketen in Ekoda, we bought 100g of cartilage for 250 yen and 5 pieces of Fuku fried chicken for 380 yen at this store in front of the station. Even though it was around 8 o'clock at night, there was a line at this takeout store in front of Seibu Line Ekoda Station. At this time, it's too late for dinner, and since mostly men are lining up, maybe they are buying it as a safety item for their wives at home? We bought it as a snack for sake at the next corner store (standing bar at a liquor store) based on information from a fellow reviewer that there weren't many snacks available. There probably aren't many people buying it for this purpose. Taste feedback will be in the article about the corner store...

I bought an Inari bento from the restaurant and when I got home and ate it right away, the vinegar from the Inari seemed to have transferred, making the tamagoyaki taste off. The fried chicken, which is their specialty, was also disappointing. It left me feeling unsatisfied. With summer approaching, I hope they pay more attention to food quality. I probably won't be a repeat customer.

I used it for lunch this time. I was unsure what to order, but this time I bought Fukukaraage, etc. Order details Fukukaraage 220 yen (100g) Garlic Karaage 220 yen (100g) Fukukaraage has a slightly light color and a crispy coating, with juicy and delicious meat. Garlic Karaage has a slightly darker color and a subtle garlic flavor, making it a delicious karaage. The pricing is a bit on the higher side and the customer service lacks enthusiasm, but it is a very clean store with a beautiful display. It is a karaage shop near Ekoda Station.

I always buy various items such as fried chicken, tsukune, and cartilage when I go home. The bento box is also very delicious. The portion size is just right, not too much or too little. It's very convenient as it's right next to the station, so you can buy it as soon as you get off. I'm happy that you can buy as much fried chicken and tsukune as you want. The staff's service is also very good. The uniforms are also nice. Next time, I want to try the horse mackerel fry. For those who find it troublesome to fry at home, the fried chicken is big, delicious, and reasonably priced. Please try it once.

I buy it when I feel like drinking beer tonight. Garlic fried chicken is recommended.
