智一番
There is work in this area, and I really wanted to eat hot pot, so I went to this restaurant for a shabu-shabu buffet during the day. My goal was to eat a mountain of vegetables (^ー^). I felt that lunch always has too few vegetables, but raw vegetables just take up space and don't really provide enough vegetables, so I thought about having hot pot. The location is near Komyoike Station, close to the examination center. When I entered the restaurant, it was full of customers, mostly women, and there was a slightly strange male student as well (laughs). He kept making excuses for speaking too loudly at first. I chose two types of hot pot broth, regular soup (water) and kimchi soup, and while they were being prepared, I went to the vegetable buffet and piled up my plate with my favorite vegetables. Chinese cabbage, green onions, komatsuna, enoki mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, kikurage mushrooms, tofu, I filled my plate with these and returned to my seat where the meat was ready. Surprisingly, there were also curry, chirashi sushi, takikomi rice, and even an ice cream and drink bar, but I was focused on vegetables and meat. There were also various dipping sauces, and I tried sesame sauce and ponzu sauce. The quality of the meat looked very good. The beef didn't have the usual smell, it seemed slightly aged and delicious. The pork also had no smell, and had a good taste and sweetness. The first plate was surprisingly small, so I ordered another one with the same quality. The noodles were added at the end, but I made a serious mistake by having too much meat, making the seasoning with the noodles a bit off. It ended with a disappointment. It's a chain restaurant that is still rare in the Kansai region, but it's ideal for enjoying hot pot slowly. However, if you add more meat, the quality drops a bit. The variety of dishes like chirashi sushi, takikomi rice, curry, and various dipping sauces make it interesting and you can enjoy eating hot pot without getting bored. The staff's service was excellent, they were attentive and made me feel comfortable from the beginning to the end. However, the lack of air conditioning during the hot pot meal was uncomfortable. I was able to eat a lot of vegetables. Thank you for the meal.
