マンマルニ
A yakiniku chain with around 20 stores mainly in Kansai and Chugoku region. They offer a wide range of payment options including cash, card, electronic money like PayPay, iD, and Osaka Pay. Located on the 8th floor of the direct link from Yodobashi Umeda. I stopped by after shopping at Yodobashi Camera because my companion said "I could eat something like Korean cold noodles". But as soon as we sat down, they also provided lemon for the sauce, so we decided to grill some meat. [What we had] Cold noodles 850 yen, Upper Kalbi 1,280 yen, Seared meat sushi 4 pieces 1,760 yen, Rich peach juice 400 yen, Bottled beer 580 yen, Almond jelly 380 yen, Shiratama zenzai & coconut milk 580 yen, Total 8,370 yen. Quite a feast... On Saturday at 5:30 pm, there are 2 groups of 6 people waiting. We got a ticket at the EPARK in front of the store and waited for about 10 minutes. There were about 30 customers in the visible area of the store, and I was surprised to see so many families with children! It may depend on the time of day, but it seems to be a popular restaurant for families. Sets and assortments seem to be a good deal (from 3,520 yen). We were ushered into a small private room (2-hour limit), and the atmosphere was quiet. It was very thoughtful of them to ask, "Would you like the cold noodles as soon as they are ready?" Usually, it would be considered the end of the meal. We ordered and the drinks arrived in 5 minutes, followed by the cold noodles in another 5 minutes. It's a double-layered stainless steel container and very cold. The soup with a mild and elegant beef broth, chewy noodles, cucumber, napa cabbage kimchi, chashu, boiled egg, and green onions. Simple and delicious! My companion was very pleased, saying "I wanted to eat this kind of cold noodles!" We left in less than 30 minutes. No smoke or grease smell on our clothes. There were over 10 people waiting outside, indicating its popularity. There were seats for solo diners as well, so it seems suitable for various occasions. Thank you for the meal.
