When going mountain vegetable picking, I often use this Yoshigyu restaurant. It's been hot lately, so I had some grilled beef in the morning to boost my energy. Although I feel like I could be even more energized with domestic eel, it's quite a luxurious feeling to have eel for breakfast (laughs). Well, normally I have a breakfast set with grilled fish and beef small dishes, but today's meal was delicious as always. Thank you for the meal.

The other day, I went to Yoshinoya and tried their Gyudon with Sukiyaki-style beef instead of the regular Gyudon. It was definitely different from the usual Gyudon. As a result, I suddenly have a strong craving for Gyudon. It's like a "I-want-to-eat-Gyudon" disease that strikes me every few months (laughs). So, I decided to visit Yoshinoya at Moiwa on Route 230. The restaurant has been operating in this location for a long time, but it's a bit hard to notice because it's located on a corner. It was my first time going in. You order at the counter, and they have water, ginger, and shichimi (Japanese spice) placed in one spot for self-service. I ordered the Gyudon set with salad and miso soup for 643 yen (including tax). Let's dig in! This time, the meat seemed to have more fat on it. It's been a while since I visited Yoshinoya, so maybe they changed the meat? But the taste was the usual Yoshinoya flavor. It was delicious! Thank you for the meal! My craving for Gyudon has been satisfied! I will definitely visit Yoshinoya again.

There seem to be fans of Sukiya, Matsuya, and Yoshinoya for gyudon, but Yoshinoya tastes really good when you eat it occasionally. This is the Yoshinoya store in Moiwayama. The store is located at the corner of Ishiyama-dori intersection, so it's easy to find. This store was renovated about 5-6 years ago and is not like the typical counter-surrounded stores, but rather a table-focused store. They also have a drink bar. Around noon, it's about 80% full. There are no chopsticks or pickled ginger on the table, so you have to put them yourself after receiving your order at the counter. The same goes for water and tea, which you can pour from the machines there. The set with gyudon, salad, and miso soup is a good deal, but this time I had the regular gyudon for 448 yen and clam soup for 195 yen. I feel like there is less beef in the gyudon now. The clam soup was slightly warm.

Today, I wasn't able to have lunch, so I wanted to have a hearty breakfast. I decided to go to Yoshinoya for breakfast. I was planning on ordering a regular beef bowl, but the staff recommended the morning beef bowl, so I decided to try it. It came with a beef bowl, a side dish, and miso soup for only 500 yen, which was a great deal. The natto was a bit bland, but the beef bowl was really flavorful. It seems like it can vary from day to day. I left the restaurant feeling full and satisfied. Thank you for the meal!

I went there yesterday at lunchtime. It was my usual lonely lunch. As it is March, I confirmed that there was a PayPay coupon available and thought I should use it as a strong support. I headed to Yoshinoya, which surprisingly is not very common in Sapporo. It was my second time going since moving to Sapporo. I couldn't believe how few there are. This particular store seemed to operate on a prepayment system, so I had to order and pay at the counter without being able to leisurely look at the menu. Without hesitation, I chose the "Gyudon with Vegetables Set" and opted for the large size, which cost ¥940 including tax. With the PayPay coupon, it came to an effective price of ¥518. I received a buzzer and waited at my seat for about 6-7 minutes before it went off and I picked up my order at the counter. I took it back to my seat and started eating. Yoshinoya's gyudon always tastes the same no matter where you eat it, but this store seemed to have less broth. The vegetables on top were reminiscent of those in soup curry. The taste was decent and satisfying. But without the discount, I probably wouldn't have ordered this. After finishing the meal, I felt quite full from the large portion and was able to return to work.

Yoshinoya is my favorite major beef bowl chain. The beef sukiyaki set is a must-try during the season. It's really delicious. I always go for the beef sukiyaki set with extra rice and double the meat. It would be even better if they could offer a larger rice portion. Thank you for the meal.

After a happy visit to Maoyama, it's time for dinner. I ordered a super-sized beef bowl with a raw egg and fresh vegetable set. Before eating the beef bowl, some preparation is needed. Make a big hole in the center of the beef bowl and stuff it full of pickled ginger. Pour the raw egg over the pickled ginger so it covers only that part. Sprinkle about half the desired amount of shichimi spice. This is to experience the right balance of flavors. Then, don't worry about looking messy and just dig in! That's the key. Thank you for the meal.

Recently, I have been using Gyudon restaurants like Gyudon Taro for breakfast a lot, so it was a nice change to visit Yoshinoya after a long time. The store was clean and nice, but there was a line because you have to order and pay first. I ordered the Ham and Egg Beef Small Bowl Set for 514 yen. I received a buzzer and waited at my seat. It came with salad and miso soup with seaweed. The taste is consistent no matter which store you go to. I wonder when they started offering increased rice portions and free refills for breakfast. (July 2022)

The store was clean and the food was delicious at Yoshinoya. Yoshinoya is committed to providing customers with delicious products by carefully selecting ingredients. Yoshinoya's commitment extends beyond the taste of their beef bowls to creating a pleasant dining environment and providing excellent service. Safety is a top priority for Yoshinoya, from the production and sourcing of ingredients to serving customers in their stores. They conduct thorough inspections and maintain quality and hygiene standards to ensure food safety.

After finishing work late at night, it's always nice to see the lights and neon signs of the shops shining brightly. As I was about to enter the shop, a big sign caught my eye - "New Caligari Meaty Beef Curry". Being a simple person easily swayed by words like "meat" and "curry", I decided to order this without even remembering the full menu name when I stood in front of the staff. It's a bit sad that I tend to forget things like this lately, but I had to go with it and just point and say "that one" to place my order, feeling a bit embarrassed. I found out that Caligari is actually a curry restaurant in Akihabara that won the grand prize in 2019. I mistakenly thought that the curry itself won an award, but it turned out to be the restaurant. When my curry was ready, I headed to the counter to pick it up. The first encounter with the curry was exciting, and I couldn't help but wish they had included some Fukujinzuke with it. The curry was spicy and flavorful, with a nice kick to it. The beef topping seemed similar to what you'd find on a beef bowl, but perhaps cooked a little differently. It paired perfectly with the curry. And all of this for only 657 yen, available late at night - what a great deal! It's truly a blessing to be able to enjoy such a meal at that time. Thank you for the meal!

Visited the Sapporo Minami Golf Club Komao Course for the first time. Got some information beforehand that it's quite challenging... so I was really excited! But first, I needed to fill my stomach. I went to Yoshinoya, a self-service restaurant. The cafe-like interior was spacious and pleasant. I ordered the Gyudon set meal with extra rice for free. Yum! I also got some pickled ginger from a separate counter. Started with a Tamago Kake Gohan (egg over rice), then made a mini Gyudon to enjoy. Oh, and just to emphasize, I always finish my miso soup last. Overall, it was very satisfying! However, my first time at Komao was tough, couldn't break 90 points easily. Thank you for the meal!

On 2021/06/15, I went to Yoshinoya at the Mokoiwa store on Route 230 and ordered the Gyudon Barley Melt Set for ¥645. It was a pre-round meal on Tuesday. It was my first time visiting this particular Yoshinoya branch. Unlike the usual Yoshinoya, this one had a self-ordering system where you pay in advance, and the interior had a cafe-like atmosphere. This format might be safer in terms of COVID-19 prevention measures. I decided to try the Gyudon Barley Melt Set. First, I mixed the grated yam with dashi broth and then poured it over. Next, I arranged the okra in the center and placed pickled ginger around the edge of the bowl. After eating about a third of it, I placed the Gyudon on the empty space with the broth. It was fun and delicious, but I felt like it wasn't as good of a deal as the regular set meal. Overall, it was tasty though. Thank you for the meal.

Yoshinoya, a familiar chain restaurant. I pass by it often, but never went in. This time, I decided to stop by for lunch. I found a menu item here that isn't available at the Yoshinoya I usually visit - their fried chicken. It takes a bit longer than other menu items, but I decided to try it. The fried chicken was crispy and delicious. I quickly finished my meal to avoid the crowd and headed home. It was a good experience.

In the past few days, there have been many articles about Yoshinoya, so I decided to go there after work thinking "it must be delicious". My target was the seasonal item "Gyudon Sukiyaki Set", which I had heard was of high quality this year, so I entered the store eagerly anticipating it with a growling stomach. The review might be considered unnecessary information for middle-aged and elderly people, but it's not my fault. It's a counter-style restaurant where you order at the counter and are called with a buzzer. "Heh, I can order without even looking at the menu," I said, standing in front of the order counter. The order seemed to be busy, so I had to wait a bit. I suddenly noticed that there was an option for "double meat" on the counter! So, I placed my order: Gyudon Sukiyaki Set (regular) with double meat, tax included for 1018 yen. I couldn't dare to check the calories. My mouth involuntarily said, "Double meat, please." After waiting for a few minutes, I received a T-point for answering the Yoshinoya survey on the receipt. When my order was ready, I picked up my meal. First, I started with the vegetables - carrots, leeks, and onions. The vegetable trio was already soft and well-cooked on the table. The meat was the usual thin-sliced beef from Yoshinoya. I mixed in the raw egg bit by bit, but it didn't seem to decrease at all. I was starting to feel like I didn't want to go home anymore! In a panic, I said, "Help me!" (parody of Getter Robo, my hands were acting on their own). So, I changed my approach. "Change, suki-don, switch on!" I quickly put the hot meat on the rice. Gyu-suki, spark, high in the sky~♪ I made a Gyudon Sukiyaki bowl by combining the rice, ingredients, soup, and egg. It's a killer combination I always use when making sukiyaki for dinner or in a lunchbox! Enjoying plenty of meat and the rich Yoshigyu flavor. The rice soaked in the sukiyaki broth, raw egg, and the umami of the meat and vegetables is a winning combination. I managed to finish it. Lastly, in the style of Yoshie Kashiwabara, "Even though it's night, I have double the meat~♪ Even though it's night~♪ Tears are falling~♪ Even though it's night~♪ Even though it's night~♪ Emotions~♪ Overflow again~♪" Thank you for playing with me today. Tomorrow is a sunny holiday, perfect for mountain climbing. I will exercise vigorously. Thank you for the meal.

In the morning, I finished my errands and decided to wash my car at Morio Oil along Ishiyama Street, but I was quite hungry. Thinking about a meal, I headed towards Yoshinoya. The Yoshinoya 230 Moiwaya Store is located along Route 230, in Minami 35-jo, next to a prominent gas station. I had heard that they serve chicken karaage at this store, but I had not tried it yet. I entered the parking lot, and the flow of cars was constant due to it being lunchtime. Yoshinoya, a restaurant that is now easily accessible in Hokkaido, used to be a small shop in front of Asahiya Shoten in Pole Town. I remember being impressed by its taste, even though I didn't have much of a discerning palate back then, and I used to go there every week for lunch and to browse books. One day, while I was there with a friend, a competition started to see who could put more red pickled ginger on their dish. My friend almost entirely covered his dish in red, with a proud look on his face. In order to win, I had to resort to the ultimate weapon, the Red Bowl. As he reached out his hand to add more, I stopped him and said, "You've put in too much, haven't you?" with a triumphant look on my face. But the sore loser then shamelessly complained to the shopkeeper, "Isn't this too much red pickled ginger?" using a different tongue. The shopkeeper chuckled and kindly said to us, "You add red pickled ginger when the meat runs out." Time passed, and in the developed 21st century, Yoshinoya's commercials featured handsome actors adding plenty of red pickled ginger and saying, "Mmm, delicious. Yoshinoya." I guess that's what the shopkeeper wanted to convey. I had been a regular customer, but I never followed his advice. The shop soon closed down, and there was a dark period in Hokkaido without any Yoshinoya restaurants for years. Every time I traveled to mainland Japan, I would enter the brightly shining orange-colored restaurant with squinted eyes. With these thoughts in mind, I looked at the menu hanging at the entrance and was surprised by the variety it offered. "I can't go a month without Yoshinoya! Oh, they have a beef bowl and karaage set." My order was quickly decided: "Beef bowl and karaage set" for 767 yen (including 10% tax). Since it was Yoshinoya, the cost-performance evaluation naturally set a high bar. After placing my order at the counter, I waited until my number was called. The flow of people was constant, but there were more takeout orders due to the lower consumption tax and social distancing measures. About 30% of the customers were dining in. "The karaage is freshly fried, so please wait a moment." I nodded and waited for less than 10 minutes until my number was called. The double main dishes looked gorgeous. The stable beef bowl was complemented by three freshly fried karaage pieces. The green cabbage on the side was a welcome addition. I started with the beef bowl. Ah, the nostalgic aroma. The large pieces of onion were lucky, and the crunchy texture of the beef was delightful. The pickled ginger and shari-shari (crispy texture) were also good. The self-service counters provided condiments like pickled ginger, shichimi spice, water, and tea, which I found convenient as my preferences for water and tea varied. Now, the main purpose of today's visit was to try the karaage for the first time. Crunchy, juicy, and hot. I enjoyed the crispy parts carefully, savoring the crunchy tip and juicy center. The balance between the batter and the meat juice was just right. The meat was lightly seasoned with a hint of salt, showcasing the quality of the meat. I was pleased with the cabbage side dish. After refreshing my palate with a bit of mayo, I enjoyed the meal. Compared to the zangi in Hokkaido, which is marinated with punchy ginger flavors, the karaage at Yoshinoya seemed milder. Nevertheless, the first impression was a solid effort from Yoshinoya, with a distinct and enjoyable dish. If possible, I would like to visit this restaurant again.

This is a Yoshinoya located along National Route 230 (Ishiyama-dori). The parking lot is spacious and easy to access. The store has been renovated to create a more welcoming atmosphere for women. I visited around 10 a.m. for a late breakfast. A friend who drove me there said, "You'll be a little surprised, haha," so I was curious. Turns out, the store had been renovated. You now order at the front register and pick up your food when the bell rings. The interior is spacious and different from the traditional Yoshinoya image, looking a bit stylish. They even have a drink bar. I ordered a Small Double Cheese Gyudon, while my friend got a Large Beef Kalbi Bowl. There was self-serve water and tea, so we made some tea and sat at a table for four. It's really comfortable here. The bell rang quickly, just like before. Cheap, fast, clean, and easy to enter...what more could you ask for? I had the Double Cheese Gyudon, and it was delicious with plenty of cheese. It was a bit indulgent, so I went for the small size (better late than never, right?). Thank you for the meal!

I used it for breakfast in March 2019. While eating Yoshinoya's beef bowl, I always think that there is too much sauce and it's difficult to eat. It would be nice if they could adjust the amount of sauce, but I always forget and regret it later. I would be happy if there was a spoon-like utensil. I prefer to sprinkle table seven spice on it. Thank you for the meal ♪

It's a place in Chuo-ku, near the intersection of Minami 35 Jo Nishi 10 Chome with National Route 230 and Makomanai-dori. I wanted to try the new size of Gyudon, so I visited this restaurant. The layout inside was different, and I had to order at the register first. I ordered the small size Gyudon and clam soup, paid, and waited for my order. The clam soup took a bit longer to arrive. I added pickled ginger and shichimi pepper to my Gyudon at the self-service counter. The clam soup was okay but could have used some chopped green onions. The small size Gyudon looked smaller than the regular size, about 2/3 in quantity. It tasted like the usual Yoshinoya Gyudon. The price for the small size Gyudon was a bit high compared to other chain restaurants, so I would have preferred it to be around 300 yen.

On a certain weekday night, dinner was late, so I ended up visiting a newly renovated Yoshinoya in Minami Ward, now transformed into a cafe-style establishment. The parking lot seemed to have an adequate number of spaces. The interior looked nothing like Yoshinoya at first glance, with a casual cafe-like design featuring tables and a counter with power outlets. I wondered if I could linger at Yoshinoya for a while. It appeared to be self-service, with a machine coffee server and a Coca-Cola drink dispenser commonly seen in fast food restaurants. The background music playing was Western music. From the menu, I decided to try the "Unagi Donburi (¥790)" and "Clam Soup Set (¥960)" that I had seen advertised recently. I placed my order with a very fresh-faced young lady. When my order was ready, I went to pick it up. I didn't have high expectations due to the prices, and the Unagi Donburi was exactly as expected – thinly sliced eel with minimal thickness. As I took a bite, I suddenly remembered that it had been a long time since I had eaten eel. This made me feel a bit sad. The eel itself was thin with just a small piece and the sauce had a strong sweetness that was almost recognizable as sugar. Fortunately, the rice was surprisingly firm and of good quality. The clam soup had an impressive amount of small clams, visually convincing in quantity. Finally, I had a slightly sour pickled cabbage and finished with a cup of tea in the usual teacup. I couldn't help but wonder if this was an experimental store for Yoshinoya. Personally, I didn't feel the familiar Yoshinoya vibe and found the atmosphere unsettling. Thank you for the meal.
