If there is black, there is also white. Today, I had lunch at a Chinese restaurant called "Hakuryu" in Shibuya, Tokyo. It's located about a 10-minute walk from Odakyu Electric Railway's Yoyogi Uehara Station on the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line. I decided to try this place after having lunch at "Kokuryu" in Saitama the other day. The restaurant had a line in front of it when I arrived, even though it was a Wednesday. It seemed like there were mostly female customers that day. The menu had a lot of dishes with shrimp and crab, which are popular among women. I was happy to see so many women lining up at a Chinese restaurant. When I was guided to my seat, I was seated at the end of the counter, which I personally liked. I was a bit worried about sharing a table with someone, but fortunately, I didn't have to. After some consideration, I ordered the "Gomoku Chahan" (mixed fried rice) and a small size of "Mapo Nasu" (spicy eggplant) along with 3 pieces of dumplings. The first glass of water was served, and refills were self-service. The staff was busy serving the customers, and I could hear the sounds of the woks coming from the kitchen. My order arrived promptly, starting with the Mapo Nasu, followed by the dumplings and then the Gomoku Chahan. The Mapo Nasu looked appetizing, the dumplings were large and had a nice crispy texture, and the Gomoku Chahan was hot and flavorful. The fried rice had a good balance of flavors and wasn't too greasy. The dumplings had a generous amount of filling and a perfect golden brown crust. The unexpected highlight was the Mapo Nasu, which had a slightly sweet and savory sauce with plenty of minced meat. It was delicious and I ended up getting a second serving. I was very satisfied with the quality of all the dishes I ordered. The restaurant also offers evening menus like sweet and sour meatballs and braised pork, which I would love to try next time. The total bill was less than 2000 yen, and I paid with PayPay. I had a great meal and was very happy with the experience.

I finally got to visit the highly acclaimed Chinese restaurant, Hakuryu, in the neighborhood. I started with the crab fried rice and dumplings. The fried rice was moist and delicious. The dumplings were crispy and well-balanced. Next time, I'll try my daughter's recommendation of mapo eggplant and stir-fried pork with green peppers. But I'll have to be prepared for the long line. I still want to eat there even if I have to wait.

I suddenly had a craving for crab fried rice, so I revisited this place. The fried rice here is a bit salty, but the perfect crunchiness makes it delicious, and I finished it in no time. I never get tired of it, so I'll probably stick to ordering it for a while without cheating on other menu items.

I visited a Chinese restaurant in Yoyogi. There was a line even at night, and I waited for about 30 minutes. The crab fried rice is famous, so I also had some dumplings and stir-fried vegetables since it was a special day. The taste and portion size were both excellent at this restaurant. It was delicious.

This restaurant in the town serves excellent Chinese cuisine. Their Crab Fried Rice is outstanding with its perfect seasoning and fluffy texture, making it one of the best fried rice dishes. The rolled omelette, served with a sweet and savory sauce, is also a must-try. Despite the recent popularity of town Chinese restaurants, I hope this place continues to thrive for a long time.

This is my first visit. I felt like eating delicious Chinese food, so I decided to try something new today. I ordered the Special Fried Rice for 1000 yen (tax included) and 6 dumplings for 450 yen. The fried rice had char siu, shrimp, and crab, all brought together gently by the egg. The rice itself was deliciously cooked. They say that if you want to see the skills of a Chinese chef, you should try their fried rice. The chef at this restaurant is definitely skilled. The dumplings had simple but classic ingredients, and both the filling and the skin were delicious. From the fried rice to the dumplings to the Chinese soup, this time I went for the standard menu items, but I believe any other dish here would also be delicious. I have been living in this area for a long time, but I never knew there was such a delicious local Chinese restaurant. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the meal.

Visited with two friends around 7 pm on a regular day. Had to wait outside for about 20 minutes as there were 3 groups ahead of us. We ordered the famous crab fried rice without hesitation, along with some dumplings and bottled beer. First, the bottled beer arrived followed by the dumplings, which were a bit burnt but still tasty. The table condiments included soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and greasy soy sauce, typical of a Chinese restaurant. The crab fried rice then arrived, with a generous amount of crab and perfectly moist and fluffy rice. It was delicious! We also ordered Tianjin noodles, which had slightly thick noodles and a flavorful gravy. We added another bottle of beer and ordered liver and chives dish, which was also delicious but quite filling. Overall, it was a great experience trying out Bai Long for the first time!

I had always been curious about this restaurant, so I decided to stop by for dinner when I had some errands nearby. I arrived around 6 pm and was seated right away at a table for four. I ordered the crab fried rice, dumplings, and a bottle of beer. The fried rice was a bit moist, and the dumplings (forgot to take a picture) had a classic and delicious taste. After leaving, I noticed several groups of customers waiting outside, showing that this local Chinese restaurant is well-loved by the community.

I would appreciate it if you could take a look at the past logs for reviews. On this day, my family of three had dinner here. It was still early, around 6 o'clock. There was no line, which was unusual. We entered without hesitation and soon a line formed behind us. The most famous dish here is the crab fried rice, which is also Instagram-worthy, but my recommendation is the mixed fried rice. It also has crab in it, and on this day, I didn't even have the fried rice. Everything here is delicious in my opinion. Personally, I like the mixed fried rice and the stir-fried tripe. Today, my son had bean sprout soba, I had crispy yakisoba, and my wife had liver and leek set meal. We also shared some dumplings and green pepper beef. This place is the representative of Chinese cuisine in Yoyogi-Uehara. I will share some thoughts through photos.

On Monday, I arrived at the restaurant right at the opening time of 11:00 AM, only to find a sign saying that they will open at 11:15 AM. I went to a nearby convenience store to cool off and returned around 13 minutes later, only to see that there were already 8 people in line! I hurried to join the line, and more people started lining up behind me. Despite it being a weekday, there were 15 people in line by the time the restaurant opened. I managed to get in on the first round. [Ordered Items] - Crab Fried Rice: Probably the most popular menu item. It was delicious! The rice was just the right amount of fluffy and had the perfect amount of saltiness. And there was so much crab in it for only 1,200 yen, seriously!? The accompanying soup was also elegant and delicious. This might be the best fried rice I've ever had, surpassing even my personal favorite. - Dumplings: Also very reasonably priced at 450 yen for 6 pieces. These dumplings were similar to my favorite ones, with a garlic-flavored filling that was delicious. The crispy outer layer was fantastic. - Braised Pork Belly Noodles: Oh my, this was delicious! I usually avoid braised pork belly noodles because I don't like the strong herbal flavors and fatty meat, but I tried it at the request of my family and was pleasantly surprised. It had a rich flavor without being overwhelming. Overall, everything was delicious! I'm confident that any other menu item I try will be tasty too. And the prices are so affordable! This place might even outshine the trendy cafes and cake shops in the area in terms of cost performance. I wish this kind of great value neighborhood Chinese restaurant would be more common in places like downtown or Kawasaki instead of being concentrated here in Yoyogi-Uehara (apologies for the bias). I definitely want to try the fried chicken and other evening-only menu items. I will definitely be back!

Access to the city center is good and Yoyogi Uehara is known for being a quiet residential area. Among food enthusiasts, White Dragon is a popular restaurant in the area. It can get quite crowded on weekends for lunch, but the portions are much larger than you imagine and everything is delicious, so it's recommended to share various dishes with 3-4 people. Around 12:20 on a Sunday, there were about 7 groups waiting outside. We were lucky and managed to get in around 13:20, but they close at 14:00, so it's best to line up early or right when they open. The dishes we tried were: Five-ingredient fried rice, Gyoza, Five-ingredient yakisoba, and Liver and leek stir-fry. The five-ingredient fried rice had plenty of roast pork, shrimp, and crab, making it very satisfying. It was slightly oily but the rice was fluffy and delicious. The gyoza had a good balance of cabbage and meat, with a crispy skin and soft filling. The yakisoba was packed with ingredients and the liver and leek stir-fry had just the right amount of flavor, with the sweetness of cabbage adding a nice touch. There were many evening-only menu items, so I would like to visit again with more people next time. Thank you for the meal.

Before noon on a regular day, there were about 5 groups in line. I waited for about 20 minutes. I ordered crab fried rice, braised pork belly noodles, and dumplings. It took two tries to finally get the crab fried rice. It was delicious, with a nice texture and rich flavor that made it very enjoyable. Each dish seemed to be made with great care. The noodles with braised pork belly were tender and the dumplings were flavorful and generously sized.

Today, I visited the popular town Chinese restaurant "Hakuryu" in Yoyogi-Uehara for lunch after a long time. While their fried rice is popular, I usually order the ramen. The simple soy sauce-flavored ramen comes with char siu, seaweed, bamboo shoots, and naruto, and it is well-balanced and high in quality. I arrived at the restaurant at 11:15 am (they open at 11 am) and had to wait for about 15 minutes before being seated for the first round. When I arrived, there was no line, but by the time I entered, there were about 5 groups waiting. The restaurant has 4 four-person tables and about 3 counter seats. They seem to seat customers based on availability, so whether you are dining alone or in a group, you may get a table if it's free. There is no sharing of tables. The attentive and pleasant service provided by the young female manager is worth mentioning. Luckily, I was seated at a table and ordered the following: - Gomoku soba (mixed ingredients soba) ¥900 - Gyoza (6 pieces) ¥450 - Beer (medium bottle) ¥600 I actually intended to have ramen that day, but changed my mind when I glanced at the menu and opted for the gomoku soba. The colorful gomoku soba was a sight to behold. As soon as it was served, I couldn't help but exclaim in delight. It was filled with various ingredients including char siu, pork belly, green onions, cabbage, carrots, spinach, boiled egg, datemaki (sweet rolled omelette), menma (bamboo shoots), kikurage mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, takenoko (bamboo shoots), naruto (fish cake), kamaboko (fish cake), totaling 14 items! The soup was a flavorful vegetable-based salt broth with a perfect hint of pepper. The noodles were medium-thin and straight, with a great texture. While the gomoku soba was incredibly satisfying, if I had to point out a downside, it would be that it was so filling that I couldn't order other dishes. Every other item on the menu is delicious as well. With ramen, I can usually add fried rice dishes, but with gomoku soba, one gyoza is enough to fill me up.

I heard about a popular restaurant and decided to check it out before it opened. I happened to pass by Yoyogi-Uehara Station around 12:30, just to take a look. I knew that their last order was at 1:30, so I thought I might as well wait in line for a bit. When I arrived at 12:55, I saw a line but it wasn't too long, so I decided to join. Two people were seated quickly, and then another two. I ended up being the next in line. When a staff member came out, they only took orders from me and the person in front of me. I hadn't looked at the menu, so I was a bit confused, but I knew roughly what I wanted. I ordered the crab fried rice and dumplings. I was seated at the counter in the back, which was the most relaxing spot. The food arrived quickly - the dumplings were tasty, but the crab fried rice was amazing! The combination of crab and fried rice was perfect. The rice was moist, not dry like I usually prefer, but it was delicious. Overall, I was very satisfied with the meal!

Visited the restaurant "Gaigin Man" at night. We arrived right at 6 o'clock opening time, so we were able to get in, but there was a line when we left. I apologize for staying so long. We ordered the following dishes: Gyoza, Stir-fried Pork with Green Peppers, Crab Fried Rice, Sweet and Sour Pork, and bottled beer. The Crab Fried Rice is a specialty and you can really taste the crab, it's delicious. The Stir-fried Pork with Green Peppers had a generous amount of bell peppers, which was great. Overall, all the dishes were slightly light in flavor and low in oil, making it a healthy Chinese meal. The taste is what you would expect from a local Chinese restaurant, and it was delicious. However, it seems like the restaurant has been featured too much in Tokyo calendars and other magazines, making it seem a bit overhyped. It feels more like a local Chinese restaurant for the residents. I will visit again by myself for a casual meal.

Weekend lunch. Bottled beer, Mini zarusai for 150 yen, Crab fried rice for 1,200 yen. The "Crab Fried Rice" that I occasionally see on social media lives up to its reputation with a generous amount of crab. The aroma when I first mixed the spoon into the fried rice was heavenly. Despite its flashy appearance, the taste is surprisingly simple and gentle. Some may find it lacking in portion. The Chinese soup was nostalgically delicious. The downtown Chinese restaurant also offers a variety of set meals. Will definitely revisit.

After finishing up my business in Yoyogi-Uehara, I finally made my way to Shiraryu, which I've been wanting to try for a while. This time, I ordered the Mixed Fried Rice for ¥1,000. I saw the crab dish on Instagram and regret not ordering it, but the Mixed Fried Rice was also amazing. The crab fried rice has crab as the main ingredient. The Mixed Fried Rice has char siu as the main ingredient, and the char siu was incredibly delicious with the perfect texture. I also ordered 6 dumplings for ¥450. They were large in size, packed with garlic, and incredibly tasty! I'll definitely be back to try the crab fried rice next time. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Good job today. I had the five ingredient fried rice at the Chinese restaurant "Hakuryu" in Yoyogi-Uehara.

I arrived 10 minutes before the opening and there were already people lining up. The restaurant quickly filled up after opening. It's a very popular place. I ordered stir-fried pork with green peppers and crab fried rice. The stir-fried pork with green peppers had plenty of crunchy peppers that were enjoyable to eat. The meat was sliced just right and went well with the crunchy peppers. As for the fried rice, it was loaded with crab meat.

Located on a slope near Yoyogi Uehara Station, just off Inokashira Street, this is a traditional Chinese restaurant. Crab fried rice for 1,200 yen and 6 dumplings for 450 yen. The crab fried rice, topped with plenty of shredded crab, has a simple taste despite its impressive appearance. The dumplings are generously filled with filling and have a fluffy texture with a vegetable-centric flavor. Perhaps the secret to its popularity lies in the fact that compared to other Chinese restaurants, it uses less oil and chemical seasonings, resulting in a comforting finish that doesn't leave you feeling heavy.

Last month, when I was eating braised pork belly ramen. It had been 3 months since my first visit, and when I went to eat pork cutlet rice bowl at night, it was no longer on the menu. When I asked at the counter, they told me that the pork cutlet rice bowl had been discontinued last year. I started to worry if the pork cutlet curry would also disappear. But when I checked the menu, the pork cutlet curry was still there (laughs)!! So today, without hesitation, I ordered the pork cutlet curry (laughs)!! It's already February and I haven't eaten any pork dishes yet. By eating the pork cutlet curry today, I will definitely overcome the new coronavirus prevention measures for February (laughs)!! After waiting for 70 minutes, I was seated and my order arrived in no time. Despite being a local Chinese restaurant, the curry only had simple ingredients like onions and pork. The freshly fried pork cutlet had a crispy crust and was piping hot. I finished it in no time, and I must eat it again (laughs)!! Next time, I will enjoy a combination of noodles + dumplings + rice + a large bottle of beer or fried rice + dumplings + a large bottle of beer, and have a great time (laughs)!!
