I had the chance to try the famous Corona Sand in Kyoto that I had been curious about. It was huge!!! Much bigger than I had imagined! Even though I have a big appetite, I couldn't finish a slice by myself. It might be tough to eat it alone... I felt like it should be shared with someone. The freshly cooked egg was fluffy and gently sweet, sandwiched between soft and fluffy delicious bread. It was too heavy to eat by hand (lol), so I had to use a knife and fork. There was no option to order just the dessert, but the pudding looked incredibly delicious, so I want to try the lunch set with pudding next time. The third picture is of the main store building. I visited in the morning but couldn't get a reservation, so I went to the Fujii Daimaru store. I think it would be nice to visit this atmospheric store next time.

Located on the 5th floor of Fujii Daimaru, this nostalgic café is famous for its Kyoto-style Tamago Sand, a popular souvenir. The restaurant operates on a first-come, first-served basis with customers writing their names on a list at the entrance. There is always a line after noon, so this time I decided to go early in the morning. In addition to the renowned Tamago Sand, the children's lunch set is also popular among adults. The Madra Lunch set (1,320 yen) with a drink (220 yen) was served, and my first impression was, "It's huge!" It was much more substantial than it appeared in the photos. The concept of the size of the Tamago Sand was completely different on one plate... The meal included two Tamago Sand sandwiches, coleslaw salad, thick Neapolitan pasta, and cold potage soup. How should one eat such a large Tamago Sand? It's so big... someone please tell me how to tackle it. The fluffy and creamy egg omelette had a subtle dashi flavor, which was indeed delicious. The Neapolitan pasta featured 1.8mm thick noodles with a traditional ketchup seasoning, giving it a nostalgic Showa-era taste. Please note that Tamago Sand takeout requires a reservation at least one day in advance. Thank you for the meal!

Finally tried Madrag. It was not crowded, probably because it was a weekday. Ordered Lunch A before 3 PM. The portion was generous. The Napolitan was delicious. I thought the egg on top was for omurice, but it turned out to be a flavorful tamagoyaki. Comes with pudding and soup for 1350 yen. Good value for the price.

"The daily lunch set for 990 yen (tax included) with a drink set for 220 yen (tax included) features chicken thigh karaage marinated in jaw soup, seasoned with tasty curry salt. Who comes up with these menus? It's a creative and enjoyable lunch. It has a Kyoto-like atmosphere that I really like! (o^^o) I arrived for a late lunch around 3:30 PM, and I was lucky to still be able to place an order. The rice, karaage, and salad were all served in generous portions... and delicious too! The adult and child lunch sets are also charming, but it seems like Madoragu-san truly shines with the daily lunch specials. lol"

The seating area was spacious but there was a wait. I think we waited for about 30 minutes. The food was delicious. The portions of ketchup in the Napolitan, ketchup rice, and ketchup were a bit overwhelming and I got tired of it halfway through, but with soup and dessert pudding included, the price is quite reasonable.

Second visit. This time, I tried the Madra brunch! The egg sandwich was very large! I ordered the children's lunch set A and shared it with a friend, it was enough for both of us. I visited during dinner time on a holiday, but it wasn't as crowded as I expected, so I was able to relax and enjoy my meal!

I went to try the famous "Alone Omurice" that I heard about. When I asked the staff about the size options, they said they had large, medium, and small, and the medium size was like a large serving at a regular restaurant. I ordered the small size without hesitation. However, when the Omurice arrived, it was huge. It was a nostalgic round Omurice with chicken rice inside. I managed to finish it, but I was really full.

Corona Egg Sandwich, Mixed Juice, 1650 yen. Visited a branch because it's difficult to enter the main store. Located on the 5th floor of Fujii Daimaru in Kawaramachi. Arrived right after opening and placed an order. Spacious interior. Pleasant service with attention to detail. Arrived in about 10 minutes. In a word, it's huge. It's like a portion for two people, quite substantial. The tamagoyaki (rolled omelette) is 5cm thick, and the bread is also 5cm thick, so it doesn't fit in your mouth at once. You need to cut it in the middle and eat with a fork. One side is spread with ketchup, and the other side with mustard mayonnaise, so it has different flavors. The tamagoyaki has a subtle saltiness and an elegant taste, just right. Finished it all. Feeling full. Honestly, that's enough. Probably won't become a regular customer.

Located on the 5th floor of Fujii Daimaru. I've always wanted to try this thick egg sandwich! When I went for lunch on Sunday, there was a line in front of the store...! I put my name down and waited for about an hour. It seems best to go early for weekend lunch. The Adult Children's Lunch Set A included soup, a main plate of hamburger, and a dessert of pudding. The Madra Lunch (egg sandwich) had fluffy and jiggly bread and eggs! The taste was gentle and delicious! The Neapolitan pasta also had a great flavor! There was more volume than it looked in the photos. I barely finished it and was full. The bill was 1,320 yen each, totaling 2,640 yen. It was a Western-style lunch that was photogenic, delicious, and made me feel nostalgic.

Business hours and other details are said to be similar to Fujii Daimaru. If you take the escalator on the 5th floor, it's towards the back on the left side. It's recommended to aim for opening hours on weekends and holidays, or wait until the end of the lunch rush. You might see people waiting, but there are benches in front of the store, and it's comfortable as it's inside a department store. The main store is always crowded and operates on a system of coming back after a certain number of hours if you don't have a reservation, so it might be better to target Fujii Daimaru for better value and service. Inform the staff of your group size upon entering and choose your preferred seat if available. The menu is available for viewing, and you can communicate your order to the staff. The interior is spacious compared to the entrance. They provide children's chairs and plates. ✔️Children's lunch set A (¥1320) includes appetizers, soup, a plate (hamburger steak, omelette rice, Neapolitan pasta, salad), and pudding. It's a fantastic set that both adults and children will enjoy. The hamburger steak is fluffy with demi-glace sauce. The omelette rice is like souffle eggs on chicken rice. The Neapolitan pasta is well done, with chewy thick noodles in a light and refreshing tomato-based sauce. The pudding has a classic deliciousness that is satisfying. It's truly a lunch for adults with a childlike heart. ✔️Alone-style omelette rice (small ¥880) Considering the high price of eggs nowadays, is this price acceptable? The rice portion is small 400g, medium 600g, large 800g, so even women might opt for the small size. The appearance reminds me of Grill Alone next to the city hall, and the demi-glace and tangy tomato sauce are unique and not found elsewhere. The handling of the eggs is skillful, with a nice buttery aroma and a fluffy texture. The filling is minimal with chicken rice, and the accompanying mixed pickles are unusual but complement the dish well. The flavor is subtle and nostalgic. It feels like a grateful revival menu. ✔️Madra lunch (¥1320) includes appetizer soup, salad, egg sandwich, and Neapolitan pasta. Once again, the Neapolitan pasta stands out with its chewy thick noodles doing more than just being a side dish. And this sandwich, whether it's pre-heated in a water bath in advance or not, is prepared efficiently, unlike the shop next to the underground seats where I had to wait quite a while for the order. I gave up on the knife and fork and just ate it with my hands. The egg is fluffy and crumbly, made with "4 eggs, maximum milk and kelp dashi" as often heard. Whether it's mustard on one side and demi-glace sauce on the other, the overall seasoning is mild and easy to eat when enjoyed here. The egg sandwich can be pre-ordered for takeaway until the day before. With the option of a pudding a la mode plate, it's truly a luxurious choice that makes it hard to decide what to order. It was a wise decision to go out with the family and enjoy a variety of dishes. Indeed, it lives up to the concept of being a department store restaurant that makes you want to go out with your family. ✔️Combo plan It seems like everyone has errands in the area... Holding back the pudding, I like to take a breather at the nearby Otafuku Coffee.

I came here after searching for Kyoto hamburgers because my head was filled with them. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is not like a trendy cafe, as it's located in a corner of a department store, but that's understandable. The fluffy omelette on top of the rice sways as it's brought to you, making your heart dance. First, the visual presentation makes you feel very happy. The taste is also good, of course. The hamburger is on the softer side. The chicken rice has a nice tomato flavor. The noodles in the Neapolitan dish were unexpectedly chewy and had a strong impact. Plenty of bacon and onions. The only downside was that the soup had cooled down. The portions were large, and I rarely finish everything, but this time I did. Maybe it's okay even without the pudding. Considering all this, I think 1320 yen is excellent value for money.

Even as an adult, I want to eat it! Kids' lunch ❤️❤️❤️ Somehow it's an exciting lunch that made me feel happy ☺️ * Kids' lunch A ¥1,320 (tax included) The hamburger is super delicious (♡︎ˊ艸ˋ♡︎) The spaghetti Napolitan with thick and chewy noodles has a taste that becomes addictive. The pudding dessert that comes with it is firm and tasty (♡︎ˊ艸ˋ♡︎) Everything is so delicious. Fujii Daimaru has many favorite brands, making it a favorite department store. It's easy to use for lunch or cafe during shopping. It's very convenient to visit in Kawaramachi ❤️ Highly recommended ♡♡♡ ☆︎::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::☆︎*:;;;:*☆︎::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::☆︎ Kyoto, Kyoto, Shimogyo-ku, Teramachi-dori Shijo-sagaru, Teianmae-no-cho 605 Fujii Daimaru 5F 075-744-6624 10:30-20:00 ♡ Cards accepted ♡ Electronic money accepted ☆︎::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::☆︎*:;;;:*☆︎::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::☆︎

I had the adult's kids' lunch. The portion was generous and very satisfying. As for the taste, personally, it was just okay. I might be happier if it was more tailored to flavors that kids like. However, the presentation was cute and satisfying.

Madragu Fujii Daimaru Store in Shimogyo-ku, Kyoto City - A restaurant in a department store where going out with family becomes enjoyable. I tried the "Adult Kid's Lunch" and the "Madragu Lunch" with a large egg sandwich. Ordering an "Adult Kid's Lunch" as an adult made me feel like a child again, and it was exciting. The kid's lunch comes with soup and pudding, offering a luxurious plate with hamburger, omurice, and Napolitan. The egg sandwich was also generously filled, requiring a knife and fork to eat. Madragu, a popular cafe in Kyoto, was very satisfying. Check out Madragu Fujii Daimaru Store for a fulfilling cafe experience.

The café at Daimaru is not as crowded, with many spacious tables for four people. If there are several solo customers, there might be a considerable wait. However, the turnover was not too slow, so it's a hidden gem. The menu is slightly different from the main store, but there are many options, making it a good choice for lunch. If you can't finish your meal, you can take a slice home for an additional 100 yen.

I have used this restaurant several times and it is really delicious! The Neapolitan pasta with slightly thicker noodles and the egg on top of the ketchup rice is incredibly tasty, so I end up ordering the children's lunch every time... It comes with a generous portion and even includes pudding, providing deliciousness and satisfaction beyond its price. I will continue to use this restaurant in the future!

I went for lunch on a weekday. It wasn't full, so we were able to get in right away. I wanted to try the Madrag's egg sandwich, but this time I wanted to have a little bit of egg and also wanted to eat the hamburger, so I chose the kids' lunch. It came with a pudding for dessert and it was really delicious.

On this day, I had the Brittany-style shrimp mayo and tuna salad (small) and the Western-style grilled omelette rice (medium). The omelette rice was very generous in portion! I thought the small size would have been enough if eating alone. The flavor was very rich, and it made me extremely thirsty afterwards. The shrimp mayo and tuna salad (small) were also delicious but very filling.

Visited the popular cafe "Madrague" at Fujii Daimaru. The main store is a long-established coffee shop representing Kyoto, famous for its large portion egg sandwich and Neapolitan. The children's lunch set A at this Fujii Daimaru branch is intentionally more nostalgic than the main store. The children's lunch set, which I haven't had in decades, includes hamburger, omurice, and Neapolitan all on one plate. The hamburger is plump and soft, with a secret ingredient that adds to its flavor. The omurice is packed and incredibly satisfying. It's more like ketchup rice than fried rice, lacking a stir-fried taste. I'm not a big fan of Neapolitan, but this one is not bad. The super thick noodles are chewy, with a refreshing tomato flavor. I wish they had brought the pudding separately after the meal instead of with the main course. It's what you'd call a firm pudding, but I don't particularly care for the firm texture, so it's just average to me. It lacks richness or anything special. Even the whipped cream is a bit too firm; I prefer it smoother. This branch is more user-friendly than the main store, with a wider menu selection, which is nice.
