Located in Hankyu Department Store, a 5-7 minute walk from Umeda Station, is Delicatessen RF1 SOZAI Hankyu Umeda Store. This popular deli counter offers a variety of takeout options such as fried foods, salads, and bento boxes. You can purchase small portions of non-packaged dishes by weight, making it a great choice for trying out different items. I purchased the popular spring rolls and a salad this time. The spring rolls were generously filled with vermicelli and other ingredients, wrapped in a crispy skin, providing a satisfying crunch. If you're looking for a deli counter near Umeda, I highly recommend giving this place a try. Bon appétit!

For lunch, I ate too much so for dinner I had a healthy green salad with 30 different ingredients, avocado and herb chicken green salad, fruit tomato and sweet tomato Genovese-style salad, and seaweed and dried baby sardine aromatic salad. Each salad weighed around 100g.

This year, the RF1 dish looked the most delicious to me. Last year's Mino Yoshi's small one was also good. In reality, both the skin and the meat were tasty. The roast beef was also delicious. Iwate Prefecture's pure Japanese chicken thigh meat roast with truffle aroma Grilled beef with marbled hiratake mushrooms on the side, approximately 200g.

How are you spending Christmas? I didn't have time to cook because I was out, so I bought some deli foods at the department store basement! It cost around 5,000 yen for 5 items, even though they were priced per 100g. The Sakura chicken thigh roast was delicious at ¥1178. It was juicy and flavorful, cooked on a lava stone and then grilled. The truffle-scented beef grill with snowflake shiitake mushrooms was also great at ¥972 per 100g. I bought 5 slices, and they were thick and juicy. The turbot wrapped in puff pastry was ¥897 and had a creamy sauce that was very satisfying. The seafood salad with plenty of squid and shrimp was ¥594 per 100g and had a delicious sesame dressing. Lastly, the Hokkaido scallop and shrimp herb grill was ¥864 and had a spicy flavor from the herb olive oil. Overall, the deli items were all meat and seafood-centered with generous portions.

I will purchase the 2 types set of fresh spring rolls at the basement floor of Hankyu Department Store Umeda Main Store. The contents are salmon and shrimp. Let's try them out! When I opened it, there were two dressings. Asian sweet chili sauce and orange creamy dressing. I will pour the chili sauce over the Vietnamese-style shrimp spring roll. It has a unique sweetness and acidity, so some people may not like it. Next is the smoked salmon and cream cheese spring roll. This one comes with cream dressing. It has a milder taste compared to the shrimp, and it seems like it would be well-received by a wider range of people. So, bon appétit! This shop has a great variety of salads, so it's good for those in the mood for vegetables.

I've been curious about the shrimp cutlet bowl for a while. It was the last one left and miraculously 30% off. The shrimp cutlet here is said to be the best, and after trying it, I must say I will definitely come back for more. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Depachika food tends to get boring quickly because the flavors are strong. However, with RF1, for some reason I never get tired of it. When I finish work around 7 PM, all I have to do is nap on the green car of the Shinkansen, and my stomach starts growling, so I end up buying too much. Normally I leave leftovers, but with RF1, I always finish everything. The seasoning is not light, but for some reason, I never get tired of it. It becomes a regular choice without me even realizing it. They don't have flashy campaigns or promotions, but they have somehow gained loyal customers steadily. It's quite impressive. Also, the uniforms have a slightly sweet feeling to them, which is nice. It may be tough for someone in their 50s like me, but for those in their 40s, the uniforms look good. The experienced staff quickly pack the items for me, and I head to the subway and then the Shinkansen. I feel like I've repeated this pattern about 300 times already.

RF1 often buys salads and side dishes. Today, the "Wine and Enjoyable Appetizer Set" that I always end up buying was not available. Feeling a bit disappointed, I looked around and found a set that I had never tried before, so I decided to purchase it. It's a set of 30 items that go well with rice for 1,394 yen. They all have rich flavors. Yes, they go really well with rice. It's nice that there are plenty of vegetables included. We enjoyed them as snacks with some sour drinks. It's fun to nibble and drink like this. It may not beat the "Wine and Enjoyable Appetizer Set," but as a set for drinking at home, this is also good, right? No, I still prefer wine and appetizers. Thank you for the meal.

Suddenly appointed as the leader of the shopping team! I hurriedly headed to the underground of Hankyu, feeling unprepared for this sudden turn of events. Hankyu is directly connected to the subway, so I was relieved. I found the popular "RF1" stall and bought oyster fry (200g) for 1400 yen, 2 sets of fresh spring roll salad for 2130 yen, a set of 3 salad items for 1380 yen, and a set of side dishes that go well with rice for 1290 yen. I also bought delicious dumplings for 4 people for 1080 yen, a variety of dishes from Osaka Owa Deli for 2052 yen, liver and neck meat for 897 yen, and Hachitori Ma... Is this enough? I also bought some hot rice balls and fried chicken just in case. Everyone was very satisfied at the grand feast! In the end, the most popular items were the fried chicken and dumplings. The children enjoyed the rice balls! Well, the most important thing is to have fun. Thank you for the delicious meal.

RF1 is a place where I always buy a certain deli item when I go. It's a delicious roast beef that is thick yet tender with a nice salty flavor. The dish is filled with large mushrooms, especially shimeji and maitake mushrooms that are surprisingly big. The creamy mushrooms and cream sauce coat the meat generously, creating a perfect balance of meat texture, rich mushroom aroma, and smooth cream sauce. The meat is so tender that it's impressive. This time, the dish even had a rich truffle aroma that made me swoon. It seems like it would pair well with either red wine like a Kissler from 20 years ago or a white wine like a rich Corton-Charlemagne from Burgundy, but I ended up enjoying it with canned beer. I wish I could eat 200g of it all by myself, but I ended up sharing it with my partner. Of course, I will definitely go back to buy it again.

When I realized, it was already the start of 2018... I've been slacking off on posting reviews on Tabelog, and I should have organized them by the end of last year... Let's get back on track and start posting little by little. (laughs) October 4th week, 2017, Lunch On this day, on my way back to the office, I decided to get takeout at Hankyu's underground area! Just walking around there makes my stomach growl (laughs). I love seasonal grilled vegetables, but today, I chose a salad with burdock, steamed chicken, and small shrimp fry. Since the beginning of October, I've been on a diet without carbs, trying out a new approach by combining it with the Chinese herbal medicine "Bofu-tsusho-san," and I'm starting to see some good results. Back at the office, I enjoyed my meal at my desk. The salad had ingredients like burdock, hijiki seaweed, and steamed chicken, providing a good crunch to chew on, stimulating the satiety center and giving a sense of satisfaction. And the standout was the small shrimp fry. Even when cold, it was still plump and crispy!! Easy to eat in one bite. Writing about it makes me want to eat it again (laughs). Thank you for the meal.

RF1 is the perfect place to bring friends and enjoy a variety of salads. There are so many options to choose from, I always have a hard time deciding. It's convenient to buy before going because there's a location in my area, but the prices are a bit high. If it were more affordable, I would definitely use it more often.

Hankyu Department Store Umeda main store B1F. There are various shops such as deli and sweets gathered, and I always rely on them. Among the popular shops, what comes to my mind as a "staple of department store deli" is this shop. Many people may be familiar with it. This shop's salads are very famous, but in fact, they also have a wide variety of main dishes such as fried foods, and if you just cook white rice at home, everything else can be found at this shop. In addition, the taste is excellent. It's always crowded for a reason. This time, I purchased two items. First, the carpaccio of raw octopus. It has a chewy texture typical of raw octopus. The dressing is a vinegar sauce. The sweet and sour flavor enhances the sweetness of the octopus. The other item is a salad with raw ham and avocado. The dressing is yuzu juice-based. The salty raw ham and rich avocado aftertaste are refreshed by the yuzu. The satisfaction level is always high. If you're unsure about dinner, try it again.

This salad is just perfect, or should I say there are no misses, it's really delicious, right? Among them, my favorite is the "Forest Chicken and 30-ingredient Salad" (^｡^) It costs around 700 yen, but it's really delicious (^O^) 30 ingredients, it's hard to gather this variety by yourself. Chicken, nuts, baby corn, celery, cucumber, pumpkin, carrot, potato, sweet potato, lots of leafy vegetables, and more! So many ingredients (^_^;) The cup on top contains mainly chicken and root vegetables! I especially like this top part♪ It's full of chicken, and the nuts are a nice accent (^O^) The root vegetables and other ingredients are all delicious! It's very satisfying to eat~(o^^o) And it comes with a white soy sauce dressing, which is also delicious! It was my first time trying white soy sauce dressing, and I really got hooked on it☆ Overall, the vegetables and dressing are both very satisfying in this salad!!! I love salad chicken and salads in general, so this is truly addictive♪ I feel like I'm eating it every week~(≧∀≦) Once I get hooked on something, I tend to stick with it for a while(^^)/ Other salads look delicious too, so maybe I should try a different one occasionally??♪

I'm choosing a bento box at Hankyu Department Store in Umeda. It's really crowded here, not just in the basement, but everywhere. This shop seems to be popular, as there was a line of people buying the deli items sold by weight. I decided on the Saladbento, which is a healthy option with a good variety of foods. The contents include steamed chicken and vegetable brown rice roll, green and yellow vegetable salad, mini chicken tofu hamburger, vegetable cutlet, potato salad, seasoned boiled egg, cabbage and chicken salad, edamame mince, and cherry tomato salad with mustard dressing. The brown rice roll was a bit chewy, but overall it was delicious and just the right amount of food. It cost 1000 yen, which is a bit pricey, but I wish it was a bit cheaper. RF1, I see there are three more branches around Umeda. I will try them out if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal.

I came to Hankyu Department Store Umeda and looked for some side dishes. I found Cabbage Cutlet at RF1 for 216 yen including tax. The sauce was already on it, and when I tried it, it tasted more like okonomiyaki than a fried cutlet. The sweetness of the cabbage, the sauce, and the rich flavor of the cutlet made it quite delicious. Thank you for the meal!

Located at the boundary between the sweets and deli section on the B1F of Hankyu Umeda Main Store, in the bustling pathway where many people pass by, is RF1. This place is perfect for when you're too tired to cook after work or a long shopping spree. The layout surrounds a showcase with salads, fried foods, soups, pre-packaged deli items, and bento boxes, offering a variety of dinner options. I often rely on RF1 because both my husband and kids are satisfied with their selections. On this particular day, I chose a salad with prosciutto and asparagus, accompanied by a refreshing lemon dressing. The salad included prosciutto, asparagus, lettuce, red turnip, onion, and bell pepper, providing a mix of flavors. For fried items, I chose simple potato croquettes from the "Kobe Croquette" brand, a minced cutlet, and the enticing "Addictive Chicken with Salt Koji" that was displayed on top of the showcase. The potato croquette had a natural sweetness, making it easy for kids to enjoy. The minced cutlet had a rough texture, allowing the meat's flavor to shine through. The addictive chicken lived up to its name, with a perfect balance of saltiness and a crispy coating. I will definitely be back for more!

The store was about to close, but there were many people gathered. The deli items were running low, but looked delicious. I found the most voluminous item, which was labeled as "Grilled Chicken and Mushroom with Burnt Soy Sauce Butter." It was priced at 380 yen for 100g, so I got 200g. The clerk put in 199g and asked if it was okay, to which I agreed. The total bill was 793 yen, almost 800 yen. I planned to have it as a late-night snack, so maybe it was a bit extravagant. When I heated it in the microwave, I was instructed to remove the lid, and the scent of the butter soy sauce was enticing. The dish contained chicken, shimeji mushrooms, potatoes, and trefoil, among other unidentified mushrooms. The sweet and savory flavors coated my mouth, making me crave rice. It was a mistake not to have rice. The burnt soy sauce added a spicy kick but also a mellow richness, making it delicious. It would pair well with sake. Location: SOZAI Hankyu Umeda Store, B1F RF1, 8-7 Tsunoda-cho, Kita-ku, Osaka City. Phone: 06-6361-1381.

He brought back white wine and a set of side dishes from this shop. After tasting the wine, he couldn't help but buy it (lol). This shop is located in most department stores and is popular for its healthy and slightly luxurious side dishes, mainly salads. The set is called "Sharing Set for Two" and includes chicken with black vinegar sauce, shrimp with chili sauce, meatball vermicelli salad, seafood pasta salad, marinated squid crispy salad, grilled vegetable salad, and spring rolls, all divided into small portions in a tray. It was just over 1000 yen. The fried dishes lose their flavor when cold, but all the salads are delicious and go well with wine. Thanks to this, we were able to enjoy a modest luxury at home. Cheers! Thank you for the meal! (*^_^*)

A little late, but I went to the beach for the first time this year! Instead of swimming, our main activity was beach volleyball. The team consisted of Small Volleyboy, Big Volley Sister, myself, and the last-minute addition of the Great Eater Hermit. We went to Tokimeki Beach at the outskirts of Osaka. The weather was unfortunately cloudy, but it was just right for playing beach volleyball as the sand wasn't too hot. For our beach picnic, we bought lunch for the team at a closing sale at Hankyu underground. We decided on salads from a popular salad deli, which included roast beef on salad and fresh spring rolls. We got everything at a 20% discount. Eating salad outdoors is so refreshing and delicious! Although the fresh vegetables were slightly wilted from waiting, the tasty dressing from the shop made up for it. The spring rolls had a Thai-style spicy sauce that added a nice kick. The Great Eater Hermit particularly enjoyed them. The large salad pack looked beautiful and would be perfect for a small home party or family dinner. Thank you for the meal! Purchased items: Whole Shrimp Salad, Fresh Spring Rolls at a 20% discount (376 yen), Roast Beef to eat with grilled onions at a 20% discount (680 yen).
