Quick and time-saving! Sometimes, there seems to be confusion with staffing at the store. But this store was fast and efficient. I had a medium-sized beef bowl with no broth, and it came with pickles. I was happy that they properly drained the broth so the rice wasn't soggy. The meat was cooked just right, not overdone, and seemed freshly prepared. Lastly, I enjoyed a refreshing iced coffee to finish off the meal.

I forgot to write about March today. I had to make a sudden trip outside the district to Iizuka City. I also stopped by Iizuka City Hall for another matter, and at the end, I had lunch at the Sukiya Iizuka City Hall store. I ordered the limited-time beef sukiyaki bowl with egg set. It seemed like the meat and other ingredients were served separately. I felt that the seasoning was a bit lacking, as it was quite sweet. The tofu had a texture similar to freeze-dried tofu (laughs). I managed to eat it with the egg, but it might be tough to eat it on its own.

It's delicious when you go there occasionally.

Delicious in a simple way.

When it comes to Sukiya, it is a famous chain restaurant known for its beef bowls, alongside Yoshinoya and Matsuya. The abundance of toppings is often talked about as a highlight, but the variety of portion sizes, such as the extra-large and mega sizes, is also a notable feature. Recently, I discovered that Sukiya actually has a "Gyudon King," which boasts double the portion of a mega beef bowl, as a secret menu item. I learned about the existence of this Gyudon King from a review by Saiken8700. Although it was originally a limited-time menu item, it seems to be available as a secret menu item at most stores now. I called the customer service center to confirm this, and they indeed informed me that it is still offered. Excited by this discovery, I decided to visit the nearest Sukiya location. In Fukuoka City, most of these types of restaurants are located in the suburbs, making the Fukuoka City Hall store a valuable establishment in the city center. I avoided peak hours and visited at 11 p.m. to order the Gyudon King, which was promptly served. It arrived not in a bowl, but on a large plate resembling a curry dish, piled high. I wondered about the size of this dish. Here are the details: - Regular: Beef 85g, Rice 260g - Large: Beef 170g, Rice 320g - Mega: Beef 255g, Rice 320g - Gyudon King: Beef 510g, Rice 650g The Gyudon King contains double the amount of beef and rice compared to the Mega size. This certainly provides a satisfying meal. As I began eating, I noticed the substantial volume of beef, which tasted even juicier compared to the Large size and above. Although I usually have a big appetite, I ate at a leisurely pace and finished in 7 minutes. It was a delightful meal. When in the center of Fukuoka, if I ever crave a beef bowl, this store is my go-to choice. There used to be a Yoshinoya behind Katsushige Park, but it has since closed down. These types of restaurants are gradually relocating to the suburbs. I hope this particular store remains in the city center. I look forward to trying the King size again. Perhaps I'll even challenge myself to eat two bowls next time.
