This is a teppanyaki restaurant near City Plaza in Kurume City. The specialty of the restaurant is teppanyaki with cabbage and pork in spicy miso sauce, similar to a certain "Yakitori" restaurant. I visited during lunch on a weekday. The restaurant has counter seats and table seats, and we were seated at a table. I quickly looked at the menu and found that they offer lunch sets. I decided to order the pork teppanyaki since it was my first time there. Pork Spicy Miso Teppanyaki with Large Rice - 650 yen The lunch set allows you to choose the size of the rice for free from large, medium, or small. You can also order an extra-large size for an additional charge. This time, I chose the free large size. The teppanyaki was brought to us sizzling on the hot plate, with a tempting aroma. The hot plate had a good amount of cabbage, and the sound and smell were delightful. First, they set up a stick to tilt the hot plate and collected oil on one side, then mixed in the spicy miso sauce. I started by trying the cabbage, which had a nice flavor and sweetness. Then I moved on to the meat - delicious! The meat had a good texture and flavor, making it easy to enjoy with the rice. I dipped it in the spicy miso sauce and it tasted even better. The large rice portion was a good choice. The dish only had green onions as toppings, but it also came with miso soup and pickles, which was a nice addition. And the price of 650 yen was very wallet-friendly. Thank you for the meal!

I visited the authentic teppanyaki restaurant Roku Tsukimon-ya, located right near Kurume City Plaza in Kurume City. It stands out in the arcade, making it easy to spot. For my second meal of the day, I had teppanyaki. Unfortunately, the pork was sold out, so I had to settle for chicken. The menu, both overall and for teppanyaki, was quite limited with only four items. The chicken teppanyaki with spicy miso sauce reminded me of the popular cabbage and meat style that has been trending lately. Since it was chicken, it was a bit light, and I was surprised by the small amount of meat. The spicy miso sauce paired well with it. The taste was slightly affected by the scent of cabbage. The alcohol went down smoothly. Thank you for the meal.

Today, I commuted to Kurume for work after a long time. I visited a restaurant near Kurume City Plaza for lunch, but it had changed to a different place called Honkaku Teppan Rokumon-ya. I immediately went in for lunch with my colleague. They had both counter and table seating options. We ordered the lunch special, which was sizzling teppanyaki. The lunch was chicken teppan. When my colleague jokingly asked if there was any meat in it, I couldn't help but laugh because it was mostly cabbage (lol). Since it was a chicken lunch, maybe that's why there wasn't much meat, but it was reasonably priced. However, the taste was mostly cabbage, so I won't comment on the flavor. Apologies for not providing a taste review.

I searched online for a restaurant to have a seafood bowl for lunch. I prefer fish over meat, and if I have the money, I would eat sushi, but when I don't, a seafood bowl is enough for me. I went to an izakaya that I found online to have a seafood bowl. The location was in Rokumoncho, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture. I set the car navigation for a distance of 22 kilometers one way. When I arrived nearby, I parked at a convenience store and searched for the restaurant's location on my smartphone. Oh no, I couldn't see the restaurant sign. I asked someone nearby and found out that it had closed. Since I parked at the convenience store, I didn't want to waste the parking fee, so I had to find another restaurant nearby. I found one that seemed to be a teppanyaki restaurant. It seemed to have opened last week, and I visited on a weekday at 11:30 am. Two women greeted me with smiles and seated me at the counter. They offered me a cold towel and a menu where I could choose between pork or chicken and select the seasoning from spicy miso, ponzu, or wasabi. I ordered the chicken teppanyaki with spicy miso for 900 yen including tax and asked for a medium portion of rice. The male chef appeared from somewhere and started cooking. Once the cooking was done, he disappeared. The dish was served on a plate. It was similar to the chicken version of a famous Fukuoka B-class gourmet dish called "Bikkuri Tei," which usually uses pork belly. The dish was addictive, with only cabbage and garlic lightly stir-fried with salt and pepper. The spicy miso was provided on the side, and I dipped the tender seven pieces of chicken breast meat in it while eating. I prefer chicken thigh meat with more elasticity, but the stir-fried cabbage with autumn cabbage was cooked perfectly, with a nice softness. Even when eaten with the spicy miso, the sweetness of the cabbage could still be tasted in the mouth. The miso soup only had seaweed without green onions. The rice was delicious, with a great stickiness and sweetness. I should have ordered a large portion instead of medium. The chicken teppanyaki with spicy miso that I tried for the first time was different from the pork belly version, with a lighter taste. It might be more appealing to women than men. I later found out that the pork was some kind of tongue meat, and if they had used chicken thigh meat, I think the evaluation would have been higher. Overall, the lunch was reasonably priced, and I left the restaurant satisfied.

This is a teppanyaki restaurant located in Rokumon in Kurume. It's more like Stamina Teppanyaki for those in Fukuoka. When I had a meeting at Kurume City Plaza, I visited this place for lunch. The restaurant has counter and table seating, and you have to serve your own water. I ordered the Pork Spicy Miso for one person without garlic for 900 yen, which comes with miso soup and rice. You can choose from small, medium, or large rice. The dish is simple with just pork and cabbage on the teppan, but it's addictive. The teppan is slightly tilted on the edge of a tray, so when you mix the spicy miso with the oil and eat it, you get the spicy B-class gourmet of Fukuoka. The restaurant is located next to Kurume City Plaza. Honkaku Teppan Rokumon-ya Address: 22-27 Rokumoncho, Kurume City Phone: 090-3199-6910 Business Hours: 11:00-15:00, 17:00-21:00 Closed: Irregular holidays (please check with the store as prices, business hours, and holidays may have changed since the visit).

I arrived at around 13:30. The pork miso with spicy miso on hot plate was sold out, so I ordered the chicken miso with spicy miso on hot plate with rice (medium). I regret not ordering the large size because the flavor was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating.

The time is 1:10 p.m. The desired store is closed, so I decided to have a meal at a random place. I entered "Honkaku Teppan Rokumon-ke" restaurant. It is a stamina teppanyaki restaurant located in the Rokumon shopping arcade. Inside the restaurant, there are two 3-person counter seats and two 4-person table seats. There were three customers already seated, two of whom had just arrived. The restaurant is operated by a robust owner. I was directed to sit at the counter seat by the owner. Looking at the menu, it was similar to Bikkuri Tei and Ironman in Fukuoka, offering stamina teppanyaki dishes. There are four lunch sets available, all priced at 650 yen, including rice, soup, and pickles. Considering that similar lunches at other places cost around 800 yen, the prices here are quite wallet-friendly. I ordered the "Pork Spicy Miso Teppan". It took about 10 minutes for the dish to be served, even after preparing the orders of the previous customers. As per the teppanyaki etiquette, you first tilt the hot teppan by inserting a wooden stick at the edge of the counter. You mix the spicy miso with the dripping fat from the cabbage and pork to create a paste-like sauce. The pork was chunky with a good chewy texture. The combination of cabbage sweetness, fat, and spicy miso made me nod in approval. I ordered the "large" rice portion, and it was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating. In between bites, I took a break with the soup before diving back into the hearty meal. Before I knew it, I had finished everything. The owner, who seemed intimidating at first glance, was actually very kind. It was a delicious meal. Thank you.

Lunch for 650 yen! It will fill you up. The chef is also friendly and approachable! I want to try a different menu next time.

There was not enough oil and the cabbage was burnt and bitter, looking forward to better next time.

The volume might be a bit lacking for men. The chicken with yuzu pepper ponzu was good, but it could use a bit more punch. Also, a bit more char would be nice.
