Yesterday, after having just one meal due to a runny nose, I started coughing. I had been drinking continuously and didn't go home, staying at a sauna instead and going out drinking again. That's how it happened! Today, I have a prior commitment in the evening, so I will be going out for drinks. I always keep my promises, that's what being a man is all about. There are many people in the world who don't keep their promises, and if I make a promise with such people, I end up losing out multiple times. I have lived for 50 years and have interacted with people regardless of their country, gender, age, status, or past, but I have come to realize that I need to carefully select the people I associate with. I didn't want to become the kind of person who doesn't take responsibility for their words, but after carrying the burden of negative interactions with dozens of people, I am getting tired. Oops! I got off track (laughs). I will drink lots of onion soup and take on today's event with gusto! #RestaurantReview #I will be more selective in choosing who I associate with in the future #It's only natural to expect gratitude from those you help, but some people don't feel grateful at all #Dogs are more likely to feel gratitude than some people.

Yesterday, I received advice from my seniors to reduce the number of times I eat ramen and opt for a healthier meal. So, I went to "Zameshiya" to have a set meal. This place offers great value for money no matter what you order. I had the Spicy Soup & Chicken Cutlet Set Meal for 890 yen, with a free large rice option. I also ordered a Tofu Salad for 160 yen and a Mini Salted Mackerel for 160 yen. This restaurant is truly wonderful. #Zameshiya #LocalEatery #SetMealRestaurant #ChainStore with the first store in Nara and headquarters in Osaka #More satisfying than Yayoi-ken #Interior is more geared towards men.

In the past, it was 890 yen, but now it is 990 yen. At Yayoi-ken, one serving is 890 yen, so this place is definitely better! #Gourmet #StreetCornerShop #Favorite is the 2 grilled saury set meal #HighlySatisfactory #GreatValue. This place used to be open 24 hours, but now closes at 11 pm.

A famous restaurant located in an arcade in Namba. It's not very spacious, so it's best for dining alone at the counter seats. You purchase a food ticket and hand it to the staff. There is self-service for water and tea, but the cups are a bit small. I wish they were a bit bigger. I ordered the summer lunch menu set with zaru soba and oyakodon, both in half sizes, perfect for a light meal. The prices are budget-friendly. The zaru soba was refreshing after a hot day. The counter seats are a bit cramped, so I wish they were a bit wider. The taste is typical of a set meal restaurant.

Life Foods, which operates restaurants such as "Za Meshiya," "Machikado-ya," and "Meshiya Shokudo," really understands men's preferences! Just nibbling on one whole Pacific saury won't satisfy you (laughs). - Pacific Saury Salt Grilled Double Set Meal: 990 yen including tax - Free extra rice - Change miso soup to miso chanko soup: 210 yen including tax - Two pieces of young chicken karaage: 160 yen including tax. The prices are just right! If it were any cheaper, you'd start wondering if they were serving poison or something, but everything feels like it's worth more than the price! #LifeFoods #ZaMeshiya #95percentofmalecustomers #Men'sRestaurantChain

I visited "The Meshiya 24 Senbayama Store" after a long time. They had a wide variety of dishes, so I had a hard time deciding, but I ended up ordering the "Fried Chicken Set Meal." You could choose the size of the rice from large, medium, or small, and I chose medium. After a few minutes of waiting, the meal arrived. The fried chicken, rice, a side dish (tofu), and miso soup were included. The fried chicken was seasoned with yuzu kosho soy sauce, giving it a refreshing taste that was not too overwhelming. It was delicious and satisfying.

Let's have lunch at The Meshiya in front of Namba's Bic Camera. The Meshiya was supposed to be a cafeteria-style dining hall, similar to what we now call a cafeteria, but The Meshiya 24 in Sennichimae turned out to be a set meal restaurant. It's more like a local eatery. The large signboard advertising set meals with extra rice is very attractive. There are many set meals to choose from, making it hard to decide. It operates on a system where you buy a meal ticket from a vending machine at the entrance, so you need to decide what to get before entering, or else you'll end up hesitating in front of the vending machine. I'm in the mood for tonkatsu. Should I go for the regular tonkatsu set meal, or maybe the grated radish tonkatsu set meal sounds good too. After some hesitation, I decided on the pork cutlet and egg over rice set meal for 700 yen. There is hand sanitizer at the entrance. The counter and tables are separated by acrylic panels. About 80% of the seats are taken. I sat down at a table. It's not self-service. I asked the floor attendant for extra rice. While waiting, I helped myself to tea and pickles. Here it is. A pork cutlet topped with egg on a hot plate. It's a set meal with rice, miso soup, and a small portion of cold tofu. Checking the thickness of the tonkatsu as usual. Hmm, for 700 yen, this thickness is acceptable. The pork cutlet with egg has a slightly strong flavor, so the rice disappears quickly. Plus, there's miso soup and pickles to support it, so the extra rice was gone in no time.

Once again on a business trip to Osaka. I took a bus from Itami Airport to Namba and I was feeling really hungry. On my way to the hotel, I stumbled upon an arcade I had never been to before. As I walked around, I found a diner. It was perfect timing! I wasn't in the mood for okonomiyaki or takoyaki, nor for ramen or fast food, so my options were limited. I bought my meal from the ticket machine at the entrance and as I walked in, I was greeted by a foreign staff member. Their Japanese was a bit shaky, but their effort in serving me well was evident. I ordered the mackerel simmered set meal for 640 yen, with a small portion of rice. Even though it was more than I usually eat, it was served with pickles and self-service tea. The miso soup with seaweed was quite generous in portion, using fresh seaweed instead of dried. The side dish was cold tofu. The mackerel broth was quite intense, but the flavor didn't penetrate the fish too much, making it just right when dipped in the soup. The lack of vegetables was a downside, but overall, I was satisfied with the cost performance.

I really like the miso chanpon soup with lots of ingredients here (⌒▽⌒). It used to be one step below Yaoyokken a long time ago, but now it's one step above. ● Chanpon soup set with plenty of ingredients, tax included 800 yen ● Change white rice to seasoned rice, tax included 100 yen #Life Foods Co., Ltd. #Machikado-ya #The Meshiya #Meshiya Shokudo #Sanuki Seimen

This is a restaurant located near Bic Camera, surrounded by pachinko parlors. Recently, they have started offering takeout options. Inside, there are touch panel ticket machines on the left and right when you enter. I decided to order the "Vegetable-packed Miso Chanoko Soup Set Meal for 800 yen" that was advertised on the sign outside. I have a weakness for soups more than main dishes. The interior has mostly counter seats, with one seat left empty between customers for safety measures. The staff member who came to get my ticket explained that tea and pickles are self-service. The staff's service was very pleasant. By the way, you can get a large portion of rice for free with your set meal, but I opted for a regular size. After a short wait, my meal arrived - rice, miso chanoko soup, and 4 pieces of chicken tempura. The main dish, the chanoko soup, was served in a large bowl with plenty of ingredients. It was made with white miso, giving it a gentle flavor. The soup was packed with chicken, pork, chicken meatballs, tofu, konjac, onions, carrots, burdock root, sweet potatoes, bean sprouts, green onions, and more, just like the menu name suggests. It was very filling and satisfying. The chicken tempura was made with chicken thigh meat, and the batter was a bit too crispy for my liking. Those who enjoy a crispy texture might like it. I dipped it in the tempura sauce and enjoyed it. In addition to the regular menu items, they also offer seasonal dishes like hot pot and cold noodles, so I think it's a place where you won't get tired of visiting.

The food and beverage industry is tough~ It's great when the taste is delicious and the price is low, but if a slightly better restaurant opens up, customers will flock there... It's not just about the taste or price, but about the personal touch and atmosphere. But that's only for bars (^◇^;) So, how can other food and beverage establishments survive in the long run? It seems like they have to constantly strive for improvement... Oh, what a challenge! (laughs) #The Meshiya24 #Not open 24 hours now #Operating hours have been reduced but it feels like the quality has improved.

I was pleasantly surprised by the price and very satisfied with the meal. If they had other drinks besides beer, I would definitely become a regular customer (lol). The highlight was the two whole saury fish set meal, which was not something you see often. One fish wouldn't have been enough for me (^^;) I changed the miso soup to chanko soup and left with a full stomach. #Meshiya24 #Not open 24 hours now #Closes at midnight #Sennichimae store #Saury fish two whole set meal that you don't see often

In front of the shop, there are banners for "Hiroshima Prefecture oyster fry set meal", "Tokachi young beef", and "Tempura soba" displayed in Japanese, English, and Korean. Upon entering, you first purchase a meal ticket from the vending machine. The menu includes various set meals, rice bowls, noodles, side dishes, etc. I purchased a mackerel salt-grilled set meal ticket. There are counter seats and table seats, and I chose to sit at the counter. I requested a regular amount of rice. On the table, there are soy sauce, pickles, sesame seeds, and a tea bottle. The mackerel salt-grilled set meal was ready in about 20 seconds! I was surprised by how quickly it was served. The mackerel was grilled to a certain extent, and I wondered if it was finished at the same time as the order was placed. The mackerel was fatty and went well with the rice. The side dish was a good palate cleanser. When I saw other people at the counter sprinkling sesame seeds on their rice, I tried it too. The sesame seeds were fragrant and roasted, adding a salty flavor, and I realized they could also be used as a topping. I plan to try the miso cutlet set meal next time.

I went to have dinner. The price was reasonable and the portion was generous, so I quickly became full. I will definitely visit again when I go to Osaka.笑

The reason I went on this day is the same as I wrote above. The ginger pork set meal was 400 yen instead of 600 yen. Wow! The side dishes and rice were also plentiful.
