Just opened in February in Kyobashi! What is a medicinal hot pot? It's a hot pot made by simmering various ingredients in a soup enriched with different kinds of herbal medicine and spices. Ingredients like jujubes and goji berries are often used, and it's popular among those who are conscious about beauty and health. I tried the restaurant's most popular dish: the Immune-Boosting Medicinal Hot Pot Course (5500 yen)! It's a veggie-packed course served with a chicken bone broth soup and a herbal spicy soup. The herbal spicy soup is really, really spicy! But it's so delicious that it becomes addictive, and I ended up eating a lot! The ingredients are tasty and also great for beauty and health, which is a wonderful bonus (о´∀`о). Let's detox with this medicinal hot pot! I recommend it for both women and men! ✨

I had hot pot for lunch, and you can add more ingredients. I used to go to Natsume in Yodoyabashi, and since it's delicious, I've been having lunch there every month since they opened in Kyobashi. The soup is spicy, but I recommend mixing less spicy broth with more mild broth for a better taste. Adding lamb or tofu to the spicy broth makes it just right and delicious, so I highly recommend that.

"I found a stylish herbal medicine restaurant called 'Eating Esthetic Habit Lunch' in Kyobashi during lunchtime. The exterior is sleek and fashionable, and the interior exudes a warm, wooden atmosphere that makes you feel like you're getting healthier just by being there. The lunch menu includes a variety of dishes that seem beneficial for the body, such as herbal medicine-based mapo tofu, curry, rice porridge, and spring rolls, which made it quite challenging to decide. However, this time I chose the following: - Herbal Medicine Dry Dandan Noodles with three small side dishes, dessert, and Chinese tea for 1000 yen. This menu is said to have 'stomach health benefits, metabolism improvement, and refreshing effects.' Now, let's dig in! Wow, the flavor is great with a nice level of spiciness that makes it quite addictive; the chopsticks just wouldn't stop! I finished it in no time and felt warmed by the gentle sweetness of the almond tofu. Eating delicious food that is also good for your body is the best! It was a delightful 'Eating Esthetic Habit Lunch' that I occasionally want to enjoy again. Thank you for the meal!"

I used this restaurant for lunch with friends. Although it was a weekday afternoon, I made a reservation just in case since I had a stroller. They seated us at the corner counter right by the entrance, and there was a small space to put the stroller, although it was a bit cramped. The entrance had a small step up. It was my first time trying restorative porridge, and it was very delicious. There were many small side dishes, which made me quite satisfied.

I have visited Natsu-me, the fire pot and medicinal cuisine restaurant in Kitahama, and it was delicious, so I decided to check out their branch in Kyobashi as well. Last time, I had the white soup, but this time I debated between the spicy and the herbal options, eventually opting for the mushroom herbal broth with spring noodles. This dish features spring noodles made with various mushrooms. The black soup is simmered slowly with precious mushrooms like porcini and agaricus to concentrate their flavors and nutrients. Since mushrooms are rich in dietary fiber, they help activate immune cells, boosting immunity. There are no off-putting tastes from the mushrooms, and while there's a slight herbal aroma, it's surprisingly easy to eat. The dish is hearty, filled with a variety of ingredients including mushroom and chicken dumplings. The quantity of spring noodles is also generous, which is nice. The small side dishes like pickles are satisfying as well. The interior of the restaurant is very beautiful, and the cutlery is stylish and cute. Everything from the almond tofu to the tea was delicious, and I felt that this place consistently serves high-quality food.

- Soup vermicelli - Side dishes (hijiki, dried daikon, pickles) - Dessert (almond jelly) - Chinese tea The vermicelli soup had a flavorful black broth filled with mushrooms, vegetables, chicken, and fish balls. It was delicious. It felt like I was eating a unique, healthy version of ramen. You can also add Sichuan pepper for a change in taste, making it a great experience for ramen lovers to try this vermicelli soup. The restaurant was very clean and had a comfortable atmosphere. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the napkins were high-quality, premium aroma paper napkins.

As I passed by, the wonderful aroma was too enticing to resist, so I couldn't help but go in, laughing. After finishing my errands, I was drawn in. The owner was handling everything alone but was very kind and always attentive to everyone with a humble demeanor. I opted for the casual medicinal hot pot course with an all-you-can-drink option for 5,000 yen. The spicy mala sauce was extremely hot, so I enjoyed it either by dipping it in a sauce or blending it with the milky broth. Once I was full, I had dessert along with osmanthus oolong tea. The dessert was an incredibly smooth and mild, pudding-like almond tofu that was a first for me and absolutely delicious. The osmanthus oolong tea smelled wonderful and was tasty as well, making for a personally shocking conclusion to the meal. The owner offered to refill the tea, and although I would have loved to drink more, I was too full... It was at a level I could personally buy. Ah, it was delicious!

There’s a medicinal cuisine restaurant near Kyobashi Station that is easy for solo diners to enter. It's a great spot for women to visit for beauty reasons, with a bright, clean, and adorable atmosphere. The medicinal lunch was delicious without any overpowering flavors. It also came with warm jasmine tea, which was soothing even on a hot day.

I’ve been interested in the restaurant since its opening for Ayasa Yakushiji (Cure Ange)’s birthday, and I finally got the chance to visit. There is a wide variety of ingredients, and the overall portion size is just right. Delicious smile~! The service was great as well. I had the original medicinal herbal sake sour, "Liver / Healing Jujube Sake," and the detox herbal hot pot course, which included: four types of seasonal appetizers and an aperitif; a large serving of seasonal mushrooms with seven kinds of mushrooms; a platter of eight kinds of seasonal vegetables, glass noodles, and frozen tofu; a seafood platter with three types of seasonal seafood and white fish paste; a mixed meat platter with pork shoulder, chicken thigh, and duck; and for the finale, oatmeal. For dessert, there was almond tofu and daily Chinese tea (jasmine).

Yakuzen Natsume 【Kyobashi】 I visited Kyobashi for lunch near Kyobashi Station✨ It's been 5 years since I last came here. Recently, I've been eating a lot and wanted something gentle on my body, so when I spotted the sign for Yakuzen, I decided to drop in. I ordered the Yakuzen White Soup Vermicelli, and it was so gentle on my stomach—thank you for the meal! ◇ Address: 2-8-1 Higashinoda-cho, Miyakojima Ward, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Sasaki Building 1F ◇ Hours: 11:30 AM - 2:30 PM (Last Order 2:00 PM), 5:00 PM - 11:00 PM (Last Order for Food 9:30 PM, Drinks 10:30 PM) ◇ Closed: Irregular days #KyobashiLunch #YakuzenNatsumeKyobashi

It's a cozy little shop with just a counter. It seems quite new. I was craving mapo tofu, but they didn't have it that day, so I opted for the mushroom soup with vermicelli instead. The flavor of the mushrooms really came through, and it was delicious. My friend ordered the spicy vermicelli, and when I tried a bite, it was quite spicy—especially with the numbing heat from Sichuan pepper. My friend was a bit intimidated at first, but after a while, they got used to it and said it was tasty. The place was packed with women. I wonder if the portion size would be a bit small for men.

In search of medicinal cuisine. On the last day of Golden Week, many places were closed, but this one was open. Personally, I think it was my first time having a meal in Kyobashi. They offer a variety of medicinal dishes, including soup, porridge, curry, and dan dan noodles. Today, I chose the curry. Although it wasn’t spicy, I felt a warm sensation as I continued to eat. The meal also came with small side dishes and dessert, and I found the portion of rice with the curry to be quite generous for women, so it was very filling. On this day, there were two male staff members. The interior was decorated with dried flowers, bright lighting, and had a counter, creating a clean and pleasant atmosphere. Next time, I’d like to try the soup and the hot pot.

Even though my stomach is in terrible condition today, I had to go for a solo lunch... I stumbled upon "Herbal Hot Pot with Jujube," and it seemed perfect! ≪Heading to the back of the counter≫ I relaxed in the bright and clean interior. ≪There was also a semi-private room separated by curtains≫ The menu includes descriptions of the health benefits, so I ordered the ≪Herbal White Soup with Vermicelli≫ which is for fatigue recovery and nutritional reinforcement. ≪The warm Chinese tea≫ was so comforting! It felt like you knew how my stomach was doing! ≪Starting with the main vermicelli≫ I initially thought, "Isn’t this going to be too bland?" but as I ate more, it turned out to be just right. Plus, ≪the small dishes of dried daikon≫ and ≪the seasoned tofu were quite flavorful,≫ so alternating between them worked perfectly. ≪While snacking≫ I realized that the seasoning was just right at the end. ≪The dessert was gentle as well♪≫ I could sense the herbal flavor with its pleasant aroma and mild bitterness, even the taste of ginseng, which I usually dislike, felt stylish in the ambiance of the place (lol). If you want to give your stomach a rest, this is the place to go. But you can still leave feeling full!

I went on a detox course with my girlfriend, who hasn't been feeling well in her stomach. From the appetizer onwards, everything was colorful and delicious! The seafood and meat were fresh, and we tried types of mushrooms and vegetables we had never eaten before. When I made the reservation, it mentioned a duration of 1 hour and 30 minutes, and since my girlfriend tends to eat slowly, I felt a bit rushed to finish. However, even though we went over time, we were able to enjoy the dessert at a leisurely pace, and I’m very grateful for that. My girlfriend was very satisfied, and my stomach issues have also started to improve! As we enter the rainy season and summer is expected to be extremely hot, I look forward to visiting again to maintain good health!

I’ve been trying to eat gluten-free and am interested in herbal cuisine, so I decided to give it a try for lunch. I chose the herbal white soup with vermicelli, which is said to help with fatigue recovery and improve blood circulation. Since I usually prefer hearty, strongly flavored dishes, this felt a bit bland to me. However, I realize I should be eating more of this type of food. I’m curious if the dinner course, which includes a hot pot, will also be bland. I've been warned by my doctor about being addicted to sugar and consuming too many dairy products and carbohydrates, so it might be good to get used to this kind of meal.

✅Immune Boost Course ¥6,000 - Four types of appetizers - Assorted seasonal vegetables (8 types), frozen tofu, seasonal mushrooms (4 types) - Seafood platter (shrimp, yellowtail, mussels, minced white fish) - Meat platter (pork shoulder, chicken thigh, beef) - Choice of Chinese noodles or oatmeal - Dessert (almond tofu) - Daily Chinese tea Detox and boost your immunity with medicinal hot pot! I just had an authentic medicinal hot pot that has been captivating spice lovers! The brand-new interior has a cozy café-like atmosphere with mainly counter seating. The owner, reminiscent of comedy duo "Sanma," explains how to enjoy the hot pot in detail, which is delightful. The soup, crafted from about 20 ingredients sourced from Sichuan, is fantastic for beauty and wellness. I felt like I absorbed loads of nutrients just from inhaling the steam! There are two types of medicinal broths: a mild white broth and a spicy mala broth. The creamy white broth is easy to drink, but the mala broth is an incredibly intense level of heat! Packed with chili and Sichuan pepper, it delivers both spicy and numbing sensations that are overwhelming! However, I gradually got used to it, and it became addictive. Shabu-shabu the abundant vegetables, seafood, and meat, and I can feel my energy surging from within… I became enamored with the medicinal hot pot that offers numerous benefits like fatigue recovery, nourishment, and beautiful skin, appealing to everyone, young and old alike. I've heard that during lunchtime, you can also enjoy curry or congee made with the medicinal broth, and I can't wait to try them next time!

I ordered a medicinal hot pot course that allows you to enjoy both spicy (mala) and clear broth (baizhou) soups. The mala soup is quite spicy at first, but as you get used to it, the delicious flavor of the Chinese spices really stands out. Mixing the mala and baizhou soups is also a nice touch. It was my first time trying medicinal cuisine, and I found it delicious and beneficial for my health, so I definitely want to visit again.

I recently passed by a restaurant that was packed with customers waiting outside, which piqued my interest. I noticed that it seemed to attract mostly female patrons, leading me to think it might be a health-conscious place based on the name. Since I happened to have an early lunch break, I couldn't resist my curiosity and decided to visit. When I arrived around 12:00, the restaurant was about 10% full. I was led to the counter seat next to a female customer at the back. The staff informed me that the daily special was mapo tofu, which they warned would be quite spicy. When I asked about other options, they suggested the "mouthwatering chicken," so I ordered that. However, as I looked more closely at the menu, I saw spring herbal seafood porridge listed. I’m not a fan of fish, which was a bit concerning. About three minutes later, my food was served. There was a misunderstanding on my part, and I was surprised to see fish on the plate instead of the chicken. Though I was hesitant, I started eating. The porridge had a bland taste and wasn’t impressive. The fish was tender but had a fishy smell, which I found off-putting. The dried daikon was slightly sweet but average. As for the item at the top of the plate, I couldn’t figure out what it was, and it also lacked flavor. The brown item to the left was possibly the mouthwatering chicken, which was underwhelming too. The vegetables were average, and the almond jelly was somewhat okay. While it may be healthy, I don't think it was gentle on the palate. I paid 1200 yen with my card and headed to a convenience store afterward.

I received a porridge set. It had things like flower petals, which you usually wouldn't find in porridge, so I felt excited and a bit nervous before tasting it, but it was delicious. I also want to try hot pot. I was cozy and warm for a long time today.

I recently noticed a new restaurant that opened near Route 1, which caught my interest. When I dropped by for lunch, the counter seats were mostly filled with office workers and businessmen. Being a fan of mapo tofu, I immediately ordered the "Weekly Special Herbal Mapo Tofu Lunch for 1000 yen." The description mentioned several side dishes, and at an all-inclusive price of 1000 yen, it seemed like quite a good deal. The food was served relatively quickly, and here’s what I received: the mapo tofu had a rich color from the spices, clearly looking very spicy. The side dishes included pickles and tofu, along with warm jasmine tea, which was designed with detoxification in mind. As I expected, the mapo tofu was flavorful and quite spicy, with the numbing sensation from the Sichuan pepper. The sliced white negi (leek) on top helped tone down the heat, making it easier to eat. I finally finished the dish after sweating quite a bit. It was a satisfying lunch with a variety of dishes.

I used this restaurant for lunch during my trip. The daily special was a medicinal curry, which had a mild spiciness. Beautiful vegetables were beautifully arranged on top. My companion ordered the spicy hot soup with vermicelli and became teary-eyed after just one bite due to the heat. They were constantly wiping their nose, but perhaps it was the detox effect of the medicinal herbs. After eating about half, they seemed to adjust to the spiciness and finished the soup with a refreshed expression. The lunch also came with three small side dishes, almond tofu, and today's Chinese tea. There were tissues on the table, and aprons were provided to keep our clothes clean. The hot towels had a gentle mint aroma that was very refreshing. The customers were about half men and half women, and there were around four people dining alone. The counter was arranged around an open kitchen, with a table at the back. If I lived nearby, I would love to try the entire menu as I enjoyed it so much. Thank you for the meal!
