I visited the restaurant on Sunday, June 4, 2023, just before 12 o'clock. There were no other customers at first, but later families started to arrive. I ordered the fried chicken set meal. I think it's great that they offer lunch menus on Sundays. It took a little over 10 minutes from ordering to being served. I was surprised that the set came with Taiwanese ramen along with the fried chicken. The Taiwanese ramen and three pieces of fried chicken, along with a side of vegetables and rice, made it feel more like a Taiwanese ramen set. The Taiwanese ramen was a bit spicy and tasted good. The fried chicken was delicious! I enjoyed my meal, thank you.

I visited this restaurant for lunch during a soccer game in Kameoka, where I had previously attended a company banquet hosted by a Chinese (Taiwanese?) manager. The food was delicious, so I decided to revisit. It's just a 5-minute walk from the station. I ordered the sweet and sour pork set meal and while waiting for the food, I observed the interior of the restaurant. Unlike last time when we were on the second floor, this time we were on the first floor. There were about 7-8 4-person tables, creating a spacious and relaxed atmosphere. The decor had some Chinese elements but was not overly done. There was no background music. About half of the customers seemed to be of Chinese descent. The sweet and sour pork set meal arrived, which also included shrimp tempura. The pork was piping hot, a sign of freshly cooked food, so be careful. But it was delicious. The shrimp tempura was also tasty. My expectations from last time were definitely met. I opted for a smaller portion of rice due to my age, but the regular portion should be quite substantial. I enjoyed a quiet, leisurely, and delicious lunch for a total of 990 yen including tax.

Today's lunch was at "Chinese Cuisine Chishokufu". It is a Chinese restaurant located just down from the Enmachi intersection. The exterior looks impressive, but it doesn't have a high-class feel. It was my first visit, although I used to pass by often. The spacious interior is lined with table seats, and there seems to be seating on the 2nd floor as well. The lunch menu features classic set meals. I opted for the "Mapo Tofu Set Meal" for 935 yen, which is a common choice for me. They also offer luxury items like shark fin and Peking duck. The chopsticks are stylish, and the red tablecloth adds a touch of luxury, although the paper napkins are basic. Various dishes arrived all at once. It was a splendid Chinese set meal. The soup was the typical Chinese egg drop soup. The white fish tempura was lightly seasoned with a crispy coating. The generous portion of mapo tofu had an authentic spicy kick from the Sichuan peppercorns. I refreshed my palate with almond jelly after the spiciness. I finished with an iced coffee. I was able to enjoy high-class Chinese cuisine at an affordable price.

I visited on Monday, March 1, 2021. I ordered Yangzhou fried rice. The restaurant is spacious and relaxing. The Yangzhou fried rice was delicious, with a perfect texture and well-seasoned. It made my mouth happy and I was completely satisfied. The menu is extensive, so I want to try more dishes next time. Thank you for the delicious meal. I will definitely go back. I appreciate all the ingredients in this world. Delicious food is calling for me♪ The more I eat, the more powerful I become♪

During a late lunch with no particular cravings, I found myself at a Chinese restaurant. I ordered the daily special which consisted of stir-fried vegetables, eggs, pork, and glass noodles. The main dish had a good flavor and a decent portion size. The rice was tasty and went well with the meal. However, I didn't enjoy the glass noodles as they had a mustard-like taste. I was able to get seconds on the rice, and the meal also came with soup, dessert, and coffee at the end, leaving me feeling satisfied.

I heard from a friend that the Chinese cuisine here is delicious, so I decided to go for lunch as I was in the mood for Chinese food. The interior of the restaurant had large windows, which I imagine would usually make it bright, but that day it was raining and the lighting inside was not turned on, creating a slightly dim atmosphere. However, there were quite a few customers inside! I looked at the lunch menu, but when it comes to Chinese food, I always go for the course menu. Even without a reservation, I ordered the course menu. The appetizer platter, my favorite jellyfish salad, and steamed chicken! Whenever jellyfish is on the Chinese menu, I always order it (^ ^) The soup was a bit bland and lacking something, but the sweet and sour pork was very delicious! If I have the chance, I would like to try ordering various dishes a la carte next time. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

We casually went to the restaurant with a friend before 8 pm. Even on New Year's Day, it was open! The restaurant is located along the road, and when we entered, we found that there were seats on the second floor as well. It's a Chinese restaurant with a nice atmosphere. We ordered various dishes a la carte. The shark fin soup had plenty of enoki mushrooms and had a gentle and delicious taste. The sweet and spicy miso sauce in the sweet and sour pork was a perfect match with the cabbage and pork! The pork was sweet and delicious. The shrimp mayo had plump shrimp with a rich sweet sauce, which was delicious! The size and volume of the dish were satisfying. The pan-fried dumplings had a plump appearance, with a thick skin that was chewy and juicy with the sweetness of the vegetables. The fried rice had fluffy rice, hot and full of ingredients, and was consistently delicious. The service was a bit challenging with Japanese, but it was not a problem at all. It's a restaurant where families, close friends, or even just two people can enjoy. Thank you for the meal.

Sweet and sour pork is amazing. I want to keep eating it forever. The Tianjin rice has a generous portion, and the crab is also good. Very satisfying. The taste is on the high-end side. It's not completely Japanese-style service, so unless it's a first date or something, it's highly recommended. If you order individual items like noodles or rice bowls, you can keep it under ¥1000.

We often go out for lunch as a family. We always order the green pepper steak set meal. The rest of my family orders sweet and sour pork set meal, fried chicken set meal, shrimp chili set meal, etc. The green pepper steak set meal is very filling with a generous portion. You can get free extra rice and even have seconds. The taste is authentic and delicious. The fish tempura that comes with the green pepper steak is incredibly tasty, and I wish they would offer a fish tempura set meal too! The pickled vegetables and soup on the side are also very delicious. The almond jelly dessert is included and all of this is priced at under 1000 yen, which I think is very reasonable! The Sichuan ramen that comes with the fried chicken set meal is not too spicy, more suited to Japanese taste.

The food is delicious and the portion size is generous. They offer free rice refills. It's a bit inconvenient that there is no parking lot since I travel by car a lot, but I would like to visit again when I'm in the area.

I am currently back in Kyoto for a homecoming visit. It's lunchtime, so I decided to go into a restaurant without much thought. I ordered the Cold Noodle Set for 900 yen, which seemed like a good deal. There weren't many customers, but after waiting for about 20 minutes, my order arrived. The set included mini cold noodles, mini fried rice, fried chicken, and almond jelly, and it looked quite luxurious. The fried rice was more like pilaf than fried rice, with a light flavor that was still enjoyable. The cold noodles came in a small bowl but had plenty of toppings. The noodles were thin, and the sauce was not too sour, making it easy to eat. Overall, the dishes had a light and refreshing flavor, which was a nice change from the greasy Chinese food I usually have in Tokyo. To top it off, they even offered complimentary coffee after the meal. This was a pleasant surprise. In terms of cost-performance and taste, this restaurant is above average. I wish there were more places like this in Tokyo.

I was satisfied at Wei Fan Yi Tang, but I also visited this place that caught my interest. It's one station away from Hankyu Omiya Station to Nishioji Station, then a 1.5km 19-minute walk along Nishioji Street. The road gradually slopes up, and I spotted it near the JR elevated line. It's a shop inside a building, with today's daily special of "Mushroom and Pork Stir-Fry with Scallop Salad" for 896 yen (tax included) displayed at the storefront, so I entered without much thought and placed my order. The new building has white walls with red furnishings, is this how current Taiwanese restaurants look like? The restaurant was filled with families who seemed to have come from nearby. There seems to be a space on the second floor for group meals. While waiting, I looked at the menu, which had a variety of familiar Chinese dishes at affordable prices, mostly below 2,000 yen per dish. The portions seemed reasonable for a family to order a variety without it being too costly. Now, the dishes arrived with two main dishes placed side by side. Three fried scallops were accompanied by vegetables like onions and carrots. The scallops were unexpectedly cold, and I remembered the menu name included "salad." The unique texture of the scallops, the slightly spicy onions, and the other dish of mushroom and pork stir-fry featuring black mushrooms, shimeji, garlic sprouts, and pork seasoned with miso and soy sauce. Both dishes were delicious, and the vegetable content was appreciated by someone lacking in greens. The soup was an egg soup with corn, and there was a slightly spicy sauce with zha cai. The almond jelly dessert had a faint medicinal smell, but the taste was not unusual. The flavors were comparable to authentic Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, for example. Finally, when I asked for tea, they brought me coffee. Perhaps due to its distance from the center of Kyoto, this local Chinese (Taiwanese) restaurant offers prices that would make you want to bow down in gratitude when compared to the taste and content. Now, I'll walk back home for another 20 minutes.

Located just south of Nishioji Street, near Nishioji Station, is a Chinese restaurant with a nice appearance and a two-story interior. While a la carte options are available for lunch, the main focus is on set meals, including: 1) Fried Chicken Set (700 yen) 2) Shredded Pork with Green Peppers Set (850 yen) 3) Mapo Tofu Set (850 yen) 4) Sweet and Sour Pork Set (900 yen) 5) Shrimp Chili Set (900 yen) 6) Dan Dan Noodles Set (900 yen). I tried the Mapo Tofu Set (850 yen) which included mapo tofu, fish tempura, soup, rice, salad, pickles, and almond jelly. The mapo tofu had just the right amount of spiciness, and even though I'm not a fan of spicy food, I found it to be enjoyable. A unique touch was the generous amount of "Zaasai" (pickled mustard plant stems) chopped into the mapo tofu, which rounded out the spiciness nicely. The crispy white fish tempura was freshly fried and came in a set of three. All this for 1000 yen with change left over. The cost performance is not bad at all. The dishes are served quickly, making it convenient for a quick lunch in the area.

I went on the day of the Gion Festival's hoko parade. It's in the opposite direction of the hoko. It's located on the west side a little south of the Marutamachi intersection (Nishioji Marutamachi). It used to be a cake shop where you could also have coffee until a few years ago. It's less than a 5-minute walk from JR Marutamachi Station. It's near a Chinese restaurant. The inside of the restaurant is spacious and clean. There is also a second-floor seating area, with a total seating capacity of 80 according to the restaurant. We were seated on the first floor. The restroom is on the second floor. The menu is a bit difficult to read due to the reflective vinyl cover for cleanliness. The menu has a wide variety of options, including authentic dishes made with shark fin and spiny lobster. I'm not sure about the lunch portion, but there is a lunch set that comes with soup and almond pudding for 850 yen. For example, the sweet and sour pork set comes with shrimp tempura. Rice refills are also available. The evening drink set is also good. The owner seems to be Taiwanese? We started with steamed chicken. It has a refined taste. Chinese food is not recommended for two people. Because I dislike course meals in all cuisines but still want to try a variety of dishes. If it's me and my wife, 3-4 dishes including the finale is the limit. On this day, my two hungry (only in terms of appetite, not wallet) sons were with us, so we were able to order quite a few dishes. Jellyfish. It was the thickest jellyfish I had ever seen. We enjoyed it with a sauce flavored with sesame oil. When we finished these two dishes, I moved on to a bottle of Shaoxing wine. Rare Shaoxing wine 10 years (White Tai) 500ml for 1680 yen. The menu here is priced quite delicately. Many items end in 1580 yen, 880 yen, or 80 yen. And they don't include tax. Stir-fried chicken gizzards and leeks. This is also a cold dish. It has a slightly star anise flavor, giving it a full Chinese taste. It has a good texture. Shrimp chili. It's perfectly firm. The taste is mild, not too spicy. Delicious. I ordered the tripe and chili stir-fry that was described on the restaurant's page on Tabelog as "Once you eat it, you'll be addicted!" But it didn't suit my family at all. We left some uneaten. It was more of a trauma than being addicted after eating it once. Unlike the 1280 yen sweet and sour pork that came later, this 1580 yen dish was disappointing in taste. I washed it down with a gulp of Shaoxing wine and refreshed my palate with the green pepper shredded pork that came next. It was slightly less flavorful than what we usually eat at other restaurants, making it a good match for the wine. Here comes the sweet and sour pork. It's a staple Chinese dish for our family. We always order it at any restaurant. The balance of sweet and sour sauce, and the spiciness of the onions were excellent. It's sweet and sour pork with pineapple. Looks delicious, doesn't it? Spring rolls. You can eat them as is without any condiments. If needed, they will provide mustard and soy sauce. The waitress, who speaks simple Japanese without any affectation, is she Japanese? I like that she didn't thicken the sauce too much. Shrimp is included, can you feel the crunchy texture? My eldest son was still hungry, so we ordered the Tianjin rice halfway through. The sauce was slightly sweet rather than salty, which suited our taste. The chicken karage only comes with bones. I prefer bone-in, even though it's harder to eat. I like it. I imagined it would be more like bone-in bite-sized pieces, but I didn't really notice the bones that much. It's a cliché, but it's crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The seasoning isn't too strong. It comes with salt sprinkled on top. The karage set might be a bit difficult to eat with rice. I saw the photos on Tabelog and wasn't sure about the size, so I thought about ordering two portions, but one was enough. Each piece is large. For the finale, we had Yangzhou fried rice. It's the same as five-treasure fried rice. I don't really like extremely fluffy fried rice. The slightly moist texture of this fried rice reminded me of the taste of a famous restaurant I had a long time ago. Seafood yakisoba. It was really delicious. The Chinese food here...

Near JR Enmachi Station, located on Marutamachi Nishiiru Oike, there is a Chinese restaurant. The building used to be a cake shop or a bridal salon, with a base of brown and concrete colors. The black temple-like columns at the top are eye-catching. The Chinese lanterns hanging outside make it easy to recognize as a Chinese restaurant. The interior is a clean space with white as the base color, blending well with the Chinese decorations. I barely made it in time for lunch, feeling like a lunch refugee. I had the sweet and sour pork set meal. The fried pork was juicy, coated in a thick sauce, creating a complex harmony of flavors. The shrimp tempura had a nice texture. The almond jelly was a refreshing way to end the rich meal. After filling my stomach, I headed to Hirano Shrine to enjoy cherry blossoms. This place sees a lot of turnover, so I hope this restaurant becomes a permanent fixture.
