Pochi Pochi
Dotonbori and Shinsaibashi are still crowded with people even at night. Surprisingly, even Yoshinoya has a line. I thought that Yoshinoya wouldn't be that crowded at night, but I was wrong. Finally, I was allowed to enter and sat at the counter. They have a summer limited-time menu, the Beef and Barley Rice Bowl Set, available. Even if you have a decreased appetite due to the heat, you can easily eat it with barley rice. You can also change the hot miso soup to cold soup. Additionally, you can add extra toppings like raw egg and natto. Of course, I ordered the large portion of barley rice. It costs 1069 yen. The default Beef and Barley Rice Bowl Set comes with okra. I added okra, natto, grated yam, and raw egg. I felt like something was missing, so I added beef and pickled ginger. I mixed everything together and enjoyed it. The cold miso soup tasted strongly of bonito flakes. I quickly finished the large portion of barley rice and ordered a refill. I was debating whether to get a large or regular portion, but I chose regular as my stomach has been shrinking lately. I chose barley rice over regular white rice. Since it's a limited-time item, I wanted to enjoy the barley rice. I mixed in the leftover beef, grated yam, natto, okra, and pickled ginger. I hesitated for a moment about adding raw egg but decided against it. I also debated whether to pour the cold soup on top but decided to drink it separately. It was surprisingly easy to eat, almost like drinking. I used a coupon from the app and paid 1019 yen. Yoshinoya's new summer limited-time menu, the Beef and Barley Rice Bowl Set, is now available. The popular Beef and Barley Rice Bowl Set features beef, barley rice, grated yam, and okra with a chewy and smooth texture.
