I stopped by a restaurant that I had been curious about for a while on my way back from Shin-Osaka. The menu was quite extensive. They offered small (200g), regular (250g), large (350g), special (450g), and mega (550g) portions of rice, with free rice refills. I ordered the three-piece fried fish lunch box for 755 yen (tax included) with a large portion of 350g of rice. The fried fish was delicious. There was also a generous amount of thick noodles yakisoba at the bottom, with a rich sauce. Overall, the price might be a bit high for those who prefer a regular portion of rice. It seems like they have branches in Nishinakajima Minamigata and Suita as well.

About a 10-minute walk from JR Awaji Station. Today, I bought a bento box here. The main menu is a fried chicken bento, which is known for its extra rice. I ordered the special fried chicken bento with 4 pieces of fried chicken, choosing soy sauce flavor. The staff then told me that I could have a mega portion of rice for the same price. So, I asked for the mega portion. When I received it, I could tell right away that the rice was indeed a lot. The juicy thigh meat fried chicken goes really well with the rice, but the mega portion was quite heavy, especially for an old guy like me. Nonetheless, I managed to finish it all. So, thank you for the meal! For lunch, this meal costs 540 yen, which is quite reasonable considering the quality. If you're in the mood for a fried chicken bento, this place offers better satisfaction compared to convenience stores.

Strange size sensation - Taiwan mixed rice ¥1000 + tax - Yurinchi bento ¥695 + tax. I ordered a 1kg portion of Taiwan mixed rice for myself as I like having a meal to finish off. My wife and daughter ordered the Yurinchi bento with a mega-sized portion of rice (550g). We placed the order over the phone and it was ready for pick up immediately. The Taiwan mixed rice came in a package similar to a fast food chain's bulgogi container. The amount of Taiwanese minced meat was a bit lacking, but it came with two fresh eggs which was great. However, even after mixing it thoroughly, the flavor seemed a bit weak. I think I prefer the Taiwan mixed noodles as my finishing meal. We couldn't finish the Yurinchi bento, so we separated the excess rice and put it in the freezer. The bento didn't have the green onion sauce as advertised, so it was just a regular fried chicken bento. Well, these things happen, right? But the fried chicken was crispy and delicious. It's rare to find such an enjoyable bento at such a low price. We'll definitely come back again. Thank you for the meal.

It's amazing, right? If it were nearby, I would definitely gain weight! ^ ^

Special fried chicken bento (soy sauce) with extra large rice portion (an impressive 550g!) for 690 yen (tax included). The fried chicken is made with thigh meat, well seasoned and juicy. The rice is on the firm side, which I personally like. There are no vegetables, but instead yakisoba noodles are served underneath, similar to the noodles in Jiro-style ramen. This is a very popular spot with frequent customers calling in. So many tempting bento options to try next time!

Mammoth bento box with fried horse mackerel @ Awaji Senbainomiya Expedition On the way back, I passed by and decided to stop by. The nori bento box comes with a large portion (350g) for free, which is a great service (*´ ³ `)ﾉ The lid couldn't close properly, so it was wrapped in plastic wrap. The crispy fried horse mackerel and juicy fried chicken were delicious (*´ч`*) #bento #noribento #AwajiGourmet

I tried a Yuriinchi bento from a bento shop that offers free upgrades to a mega-sized mammoth bento with Awaji rice (up to 550g). During lunchtime, it's usually ¥695 (excluding tax) but it's discounted to ¥500! Due to the high price of chicken, the total became ¥600 when I ordered. I agreed to reduce one piece of karaage (still got 4 large pieces) and opted for a large rice portion (350g) for ¥500. The karaage was satisfyingly large and the thick sauce on top was delicious. I left feeling full and satisfied. It seems the high price of chicken is affecting even places like this. #bento #oil-drenched chicken #Awaji lunch

This is a bento shop that I often repeat. I always get the chicken karaage nori bento, but this time I tried the katsudon. The price was 800 yen including tax. You can choose the rice portion up to mega, but this time I went for the special size since I'm working. The thickness of the katsu is about 1cm. The taste is sweet and goes well with the rice. It gets crowded during lunchtime, so I recommend making a phone reservation before going.

Visited a restaurant with my second son who is in the middle of his growth spurt, aiming to get the rumored bento box that is too much to finish. Checked the menu and ordered the "Fried Chicken Meteorite Bento Box." You can choose the flavor of the fried chicken from salt, soy sauce, or curry, and my son quickly chose "soy sauce!" According to him, if you eat the fried chicken alone, salt is good, but soy sauce goes well with rice. He's starting to think about things at his age (laughs). When asked about the amount of rice, I inquired about the maximum free increase, and the staff smiled and said, "You want the 'Otaku-sized portion,' right?" It seems that the free amount varies depending on the bento box you choose. The amounts are... Small (200g), Regular (250g), Large (350g), Extra Large (450g), Mega (550g), Giga (650g), Tera (750g), Peta (850g), Exa (950g), Zetta (1,050g), and Otaku (1,150g). After waiting for about 5 minutes, we got the bento box! My son happily carried the 1.8kg bento box, exclaiming "This is awesome!" We brought it home and added my eldest son to enjoy it together. The bento box was stuffed with rice and as many pieces of fried chicken as possible in a normal-sized box, with the lid unable to close, so it was wrapped tightly with plastic wrap. Some people might not like this kind of presentation, but we loved it! (laughs) We had a great time eating it. The fried chicken was juicy and flavorful with soy sauce, and indeed, the rice went down smoothly. Under the fried chicken, there was not pasta but grilled noodles, pink pickles, and one small pickled plum on top of 1,150g of white rice. The sight of the single plum caused another burst of laughter. We laughed, ate, and were fully satisfied and full. The cost performance was also great!

This month, a super popular mega-sized bento shop, "Ennosuke Shoten," is opening its second store in Yodogawa Ward on the 17th. It is part of the same group as popular ramen shops like "Harenochi Hare," so expectations are high! I've been curious about this place for a while, and I finally got to visit. The menu is extensive, making it hard to choose. While waiting for my order, I noticed that customers who had made phone reservations were coming to pick up their bentos one after another. The place is incredibly popular! I ordered the "Karaage Meteor Fall Bento" just based on the name. The generous portion size lived up to its popularity, with a hearty presentation. As it is part of the same group as a ramen shop, homemade yakisoba was hidden under the karaage. I was surprised by the amount of rice! The karaage was crispy and well-seasoned, making the rice go down smoothly. I definitely want to try their curry dishes next time. This is a place I would love to have in my neighborhood.

This is a restaurant in Higashiyodogawa Ward that offers volume bento boxes where you can choose the amount of rice for the same price. The options range from 200g to 550g, which is quite impressive. I decided to start with the popular karaage bento box. The rice portion was generous and the karaage was so big that I couldn't eat it in one bite - there were 5 large pieces. Underneath, there was yakisoba with thick noodles, making the meal quite filling. However, I felt like I needed a bit more rice as I was eating, maybe I should have gone for the larger size. They also have other bento boxes with hefty portions, but I think I wouldn't be able to finish those.
