There are many staff members on set, but in the movie, only my acting exists. I learned the importance of believing in myself without succumbing to the situation and the director shared his vision when directing, which was a grand story beyond this movie. Actress Shin Shia watched the movie "The Witch - Witch Proliferation." The girl learns for the first time the variety of food and the warmth of people. A futile struggle to increase dominance. The arrogance of thinking that one can control everything. The bliss of being able to connect hearts even for a short time. Today, I visited "Roma Ken Nankai Namba Store" in "Nankai Namba Station 02F Central Exit Connecting Passage." I felt like eating baked spaghetti after a long time. - Seafood Peperoncino + B Set [Soup, Salad] = 1,050 yen I love the classic Napoletana and meat sauce, but I'm weak against store-limited menus. I decided on the "Seafood Peperoncino" and ordered it with the B set including soup and salad. Oh, the spiciness of the chili pepper is quite direct. First, I tried it as it is. I added Tabasco and powdered cheese in the second half. It changed the taste in a different way. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. There are quite a few solo female customers as well. Is baked spaghetti popular among a wide range of people? Let us devote ourselves to the path we take, and finish without regret.

At the Nankai Namba Station, there was a limited-time Thai Gapao Spa at Roma Ken. It is described as a new classic that combines the umami of oyster sauce and nam pla with the aroma of basil, a popular dish in Thailand, with spa. Roma Ken is a restaurant that specializes in baked spa. For those from Tokyo, baked spa may not be familiar, but it is similar to Rome spa. I am weak to the words "limited time," so I ended up entering the store. The Meat Spa with a sunny-side-up egg topping is more expensive than the Thai Gapao Spa, so the Thai Gapao Spa seems like a good deal. I'm debating whether to get a regular serving or a large serving. The regular serving is 400g, and the large serving is 600g. 600g is less in volume and weight than a large bottle of beer. With toppings, it is about the same volume as a large bottle of beer and a cup of sake. I ordered the large serving of Thai Gapao Spa for 1100 yen. It arrived. Thick noodles cooked with vegetables, topped with Gapao and a sunny-side-up egg. Let's dig in. Oh, spicy!!! In Kansai, both salty and spicy are expressed as "karai." Depending on the situation, the meaning being conveyed can be understood, so it is not particularly inconvenient in daily life. However, in this case, the "spicy" had a double meaning. It was both salty and spicy from chili peppers, making it doubly spicy. The spiciness from the chili peppers is not that strong, but the saltiness is overpowering. I am confident in handling spiciness from chili peppers, but I am weak against saltiness. Even when I crushed the sunny-side-up egg and ate it, it was still too salty. Apart from the saltiness, the spices were bringing a taste of Thailand, but unfortunately, there was just too much salt. Luckily, there was a water pot on the table, so I drank a lot of water to counter the saltiness.

Going up the escalator, you might not notice this place right away. I like either Neapolitan or Japanese style at Roma-ken. They are all rich in flavor, so I'm not a fan of the others. I had never tried the Japanese-style Bolognese before, so I ordered it. As always, the portion size was generous. The Bolognese had a Japanese touch with seaweed on top. It was very flavorful, and it made me crave rice as a side dish level. The cheese paired well with it, making it milder and easier to eat. However, the seaweed didn't go well with it at all. I ended up eating it bit by bit, thinking it would be a good side dish for sake or paired with rice. Next time, I will go back to the Japanese style.

I tried B-class gourmet, baked spaghetti for the first time. I ordered a Japanese-style Polonaise. The staff inside the restaurant was efficient, and someone from the kitchen came to take our order. The noodles were thick. The taste was a strange Bolognese, more like a sauce flavor. It was so rich in flavor that I felt like I wanted some rice.

A spaghetti restaurant with generous portions. The regular size is quite filling and offers good value for money. Their "meat pepe" is famous for its punchy and delicious flavor. Overall, the pasta dishes are richly seasoned, attracting many male customers dining alone. Located right in front of Takashimaya, making it easy to find.

On the first day of my business trip in Osaka, I finished my errands in Kaizuka early and went shopping in Namba. Before that, I decided to have a meal to fill my stomach. I had been craving Bolognese sauce, so I ordered a Japanese-style Bolognese. It was a delicious combination of Japanese and Italian flavors, with a hint of Chinese elements. I wish I had ordered a large portion. There are other menu items I haven't tried yet, so I would like to visit this restaurant again.

I was curious about Roma Ken, so I decided to go there on New Year's Eve. I ordered their special spicy spaghetti, which is only available at the Nan'nan Town store. I ordered a large portion of 600g of noodles to compare with Pancho (lol). They will give you water if you ask, which seems to be their policy. It's hard to expect good service at this price range of restaurants. To avoid that, Pancho has self-serve pitchers. Maybe it's a strategy to sell their canned chu-hi drinks. The 600g of spicy spaghetti was delicious, topped with a fried egg and jumbo frank. The spicy meat sauce was flavorful as expected from their signature dish. The jumbo frank had a familiar taste, but I think it would be nice to have thick-cut bacon as well. The fried egg was perfectly cooked. If spicy spaghetti is their specialty, they should consider providing water more efficiently. Chain restaurants should receive proper instructions from their headquarters. In Japan, where there is a shortage of manpower, we have to rely on ingenuity to make up for the declining service quality day by day.

The spaghetti at this restaurant is delicious with a rich sauce. The hamburger is not very good, so it's better not to have high expectations for it. The spaghetti portion is quite generous, so you might be fine with just the A set (salad, soup). If you have the chance, try the large serving of meat spaghetti next time.

I went shopping at Takashimaya Namba store and on my way back, I stopped by Roman-ken at Nankai Namba Station. It's a hidden gem located on the second floor of the station. It may be considered unconventional by Italians, but they serve spaghetti that reminds me of a Showa-era coffee shop. Sometimes, you just crave that kind of spaghetti. Osaka only has Pancho for spaghetti in Nipponbashi, so Roman-ken is really appreciated. Today, I had the Japoneze Oo instead of the usual Napolitan. The Oo size is 600g, but it goes down smoothly. The Japoneze at first tastes more like yakisoba than pasta, but when you sprinkle Parmesan cheese on it, it magically transforms into a pasta-like dish.

We ordered mentaiko mayonnaise and carbonara with two people, but the noodles were too soft and both dishes had the same ingredients - komatsuna, onion, and maybe shiitake (it was thin so it was hard to tell). It's strange that there was no bacon in the carbonara and I wonder if it's just me who finds the komatsuna unusual.

I found this place in the underground station and the atmosphere was nice. I had never tried baked pasta before, so I decided to go in after seeing the sign. The interior of the restaurant was also nice, and the staff were very attentive. I ordered the shrimp cream pasta with a soft-boiled egg on top. Once it was served, the aroma was amazing. The pasta had a slightly oily and delicious smell from being baked. It made me really hungry. The baked pasta was also very tasty! I would like to try making it myself next time.

After work, I went to a movie theater in Namba for a late show. Before the movie, I quickly grabbed dinner at an Italian restaurant called "Roma-ken" located on the long escalator at Nankai Namba Station. I was really hungry, so I wanted to eat a lot of pasta. The restaurant specializes in "yaki spaghetti" (baked spaghetti), with options like the "Japanesque" (medium 400g) for 680 yen or the "Napolitan" (regular 400g) for 580 yen. The restaurant uses thick noodles and flavors them with broth and soy sauce before baking them to create a delicious dish similar to yakisoba. My partner chose the "Japanesque" with shrimp, pork, komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), shiitake mushrooms, onions, shiso (perilla) leaves, and tomatoes, while I had the "Napolitan" with shrimp, bacon, komatsuna, shiitake mushrooms, onions, all in a sweet ketchup flavor. Both dishes were full of vegetables. We also enjoyed a glass of red wine that paired perfectly with the dishes. After the quick meal, we rushed to the movie theater.

I finally made my debut at Roma-ken, the restaurant located inside Nankai Namba Station. I had been wanting to visit this place for a while, even though there are many other Roma-ken locations around, including the one in Namba Walk. However, every time I passed by, I either had a reservation at another restaurant or was too full to stop by. This time, I planned to grab a meal at Roma-ken before checking out the new One Piece movie at Namba Parks. I ordered the Japoneze in large size, which was already a hefty 400g, but since I had missed lunch, I decided to go for the 600g option. While waiting for the pasta to arrive, my partner and I enjoyed some wine - I had white, and they had red. The wine was served in highball glasses, which made us burst into laughter. When the Japoneze arrived, it was a soy sauce-based pasta with pork, shrimp, komatsuna, shiitake mushrooms, onions, shiso leaves, and tomatoes. It was delicious and surprisingly affordable at 930 yen for the large size. The regular size was only 680 yen, which was a great deal considering the quality and taste. I found the Japoneze even better than Italian pasta dishes with a rating of over 4.0 on Tabelog. Despite the lackluster ambiance and service, I was impressed by the food. I noticed other interesting menu items like Japanese-style Bolognese, Meat Pepe, and Yaki Carbo, which I look forward to trying next time. I'm now considering embarking on a "roller strategy" to visit all the Roma-ken locations in Osaka. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I'm in Osaka. In Osaka, there is Minami and Namba. I found this restaurant on the second floor of Namba CITY. On my way to Namba Station... I missed lunch. But then I found this place! I ordered the recommended Napolitan. It arrived quickly, in about 7-8 minutes. I sprinkled plenty of powdered cheese on top of the large Tabasco prepared at the table and dug in. The balance of the soft noodles and the acidity of the sautéed tomatoes was just right. Maybe I should have gone for a large portion? I thought as I easily finished my meal. Next time, I'll challenge myself with other menu items.

Nankai F.D. Service Co., Ltd., which operates station-side restaurants and shops within the Nankai Electric Railway Group, opened a franchise in Nankai Namba Station in August 2021. It was a busy Sunday lunchtime, with all the restaurants crowded. The weather in Namba was very hot today, and the underground shopping area was bustling with people. Due to certain circumstances, I had to change my plans and decided to try the restaurant "Roma-ken" right in front of me for lunch. The menu consisted of 8 dishes centered around baked spaghetti. The large bottles of Tabasco and powdered cheese placed on the tables left a strong impression. I had a hard time deciding what to eat, as I didn't particularly plan to eat at this restaurant, but I eventually settled for a classic dish that seemed unique and ordered it. They also offer a self-service all-you-can-drink option for draft beer (Sapporo Black Label) for 660 yen for 30 minutes. Additionally, they have a half-price deal on alcoholic drinks on weekdays from 11:00 to 17:00, which is a great value. I might visit again if I feel like it. I ordered the "Japoneze" spaghetti for 680 yen, which included ingredients such as pork, shrimp, komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), shiitake mushrooms, onions, perilla leaves, and tomatoes. The spaghetti was incredibly voluminous, with a standard serving containing 400g, a large serving (additional 250 yen) containing 600g, and a "Berabo" serving (additional 420 yen) containing 850g. The spaghetti at Roma-ken is made by stir-frying the 2.2mm thick noodles in a frying pan after the order is placed, then mixing them with a special sauce to create the baked spaghetti. It's a traditional way of making it, similar to the old-fashioned Napolitan pasta served at coffee shops. The visually appealing dish resembled yakisoba (stir-fried noodles in soy sauce). The crispy aroma of the soy sauce was invigorating. The 2.2mm thick noodles provided a chewy and springy texture. The savory flavor of the soy sauce was delicious. The ingredients also had a satisfying crunch. I added some Tabasco and powdered cheese halfway through for a flavor boost. The acidity and spiciness of the Tabasco combined with the richness of the cheese enhanced the deliciousness even more! The 400g portion of noodles made it a hearty meal, but it made me crave for rice... The "Napolitan" spaghetti, priced at 580 yen, included ingredients such as shrimp, tomatoes, komatsuna, shiitake mushrooms, and onions. I had a taste of it, and it had a rich and thick flavor with plenty of ketchup. Personally, I would have preferred a bit more sweetness by caramelizing the ketchup a bit more. However, considering the price, I can't complain too much... It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

When you feel like eating Napolitan, you have a choice between Roma-ken and another place. When I was a child, I didn't really like tomato sauce, so I wasn't a big fan of spaghetti. But before I knew it, I started to love various types of pasta. Sometimes, I crave Napolitan. The one here is different from the usual, giving off a retro Showa era vibe. (Note: I asked them to leave out shiitake mushrooms because I don't like them.) It's not the ketchup-drenched kind, but a refreshing Napolitan with a strong acidity. Thank you for the meal!

Today, I felt like eating some kind of junky spaghetti, so I visited "Roma-ken Nankai Namba Store". I remember it used to be a trendy cafe, but I'm not sure. I ordered the baked spaghetti Napolitan, hot dog with stick, and Set A (salad and soup). The staff at the restaurant was quite friendly. After a while, they served the salad and soup. The consomme soup was quite delicious. The salad was also more than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise! Then, the main dish of baked spaghetti was served. It had shrimp, tomato, komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), shiitake mushrooms, and onions. Roma-ken is generous with their ingredients, which is nice! The hot dog with stick was tasty, even though it may not be the healthiest choice. I sprinkled plenty of powdered cheese on the baked spaghetti, mixed it with a fork, and enjoyed it. The thick pasta with rich flavor was delicious! I'm sure I'll get thirsty later, but it's so good. I had a regular size portion and I'm full! Thank you for the meal.

Nankai Namba! When you come out of the Central Exit, if you walk straight ahead, you will find Roma Ken open! The automatic door opened and I found myself sitting at a table! The Napolitan pasta costs 580 yen. The thick pasta with sweet and sour ketchup sauce is amazing! It has a satisfying texture and plenty of ingredients. I sprinkled cheese and Tabasco on top and enjoyed it! The variety of ingredients inside is also pleasing - shrimp, tomato, komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), shiitake mushrooms, and onions. The sweetness of the cooked tomatoes and the crisp texture of the komatsuna are great! I also like Napolitan pasta at cafes, but this one has a taste that you can get addicted to! Thick noodles are the best for Napolitan pasta, after all! Next time, I want to try adding a fried egg on top!

When I went to Namba, I went to have lunch at a restaurant called Roma Ken Nankai Namba Store on the 2nd floor of Namba CITY. This restaurant serves generous portions of baked spaghetti. I ordered the classic Napolitan spaghetti in a regular size. I also got the A set with salad and soup for an additional 230 yen. The spaghetti had shrimp, tomato, onion, komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach), shiitake mushrooms, and came with grated cheese and Tabasco on the side. The noodles were thick and chewy, baked with ketchup, giving it a nostalgic flavor. Even in the regular size, the portion was generous and satisfying. The Napolitan spaghetti cost 580 yen for a single serving, making it a good value for money and delicious. I also saw the Kama-tama Pepperoncino on the menu, which looked appetizing with ingredients like komatsuna, onion, shiitake mushrooms, chili peppers, garlic, and egg. I look forward to trying different types of spaghetti on my next visit.

I once found a coffee shop I had visited before at Roma-ken!? I initially passed by, but couldn't resist my hunger and decided to go in. The shop had stairs right away, and I ordered the classic Neapolitan pasta from the 9 varieties available. Neapolitan (580 yen) with a frankfurter on a stick (+150 yen). The pasta, cooked al dente, was then sautéed in a pan with a sauce that had been simmered for a long time to ensure the sauce and noodles were well combined. Despite my initial lack of expectations due to the price of 580 yen, I was impressed by the quality of the dish. The sauce was not the typical ketchup-based one, but had a moderate richness that made the Neapolitan pasta easy to enjoy. Considering the price of 580 yen for a 400g portion of pasta, the value is quite good, but in terms of pasta quality, it may be considered average for the price.
