First time visiting the restaurant, led by my juniors, the interior was dimly lit. Freed from the non-alcoholic drinks of the other day, I started with a beer! With Korean seaweed in hand, I enjoyed more and more alcohol! Starting with Hokkaido salami and plum smashed cucumbers as appetizers, gradually switching to Corona beer halfway through, and finally ending with Daiyame soda... Daiyame from Hamada Shuzo has a great aroma and a pleasant mouthfeel. It's my recommendation. While many places offer ketchup or salt for potato fries, this place serves sour cream! It's so delicious! I ordered extra sour cream and enjoyed it generously. The best! I vaguely remember someone ordering fish and chips, but I was too engrossed in the conversation and couldn't try several other dishes... It's a great space for a lively gathering with a slightly larger group of people. This time we sat at a table in the back, but the terrace seats near the entrance are distinctive. There are three different spaces, including tents.

I had a meeting at Momoyama Goryo and arrived a bit early, so I decided to explore the area to pass the time. I came across a place called PATAYA, which had a tropical feel to it. I sat at a large table and ordered a highball. The potato salad they served as a snack was surprisingly delicious. I found the atmosphere to be very relaxed, perfect for getting some work done on my laptop. I ended up having three strong highballs. The menu had a mix of international dishes, and I ordered the steamed chicken, which was flavorful with spices. The staff, who seemed to be young students or part-time workers, were friendly. Overall, it was a convenient and enjoyable place to spend time. Thank you for the great meal.

Wow!! Today's final stop is "Yushokuya Pataya"! It's been a year and a half since I last visited this place. I used to come here more often for drinks at night, but recently I've been going out less. Today's order: - Draft beer (Asahi Super Dry) x2 - Oolong tea - Appetizer x2 - Spicy pork bones - Stir-fried pork and garlic sprouts - Original pork okonomiyaki - Shanghai salt yakisoba The prices are all 390 yen each, which is quite cheap. The dishes were all delicious, especially the pork okonomiyaki, stir-fried pork and garlic sprouts, and Shanghai salt yakisoba. They paired perfectly with the beer. The staff at Yushokuya Pataya were friendly and provided great service. The atmosphere was welcoming, and I enjoyed the food and drinks. I'll definitely come back again. And before leaving, I couldn't help but compliment a young, beautiful waitress with captivating eyes. Her eyes were so beautiful and mesmerizing, it was a sight to behold. Date of visit: April 4, 2015 Yushokuya Pataya is a great place with all dishes priced at 390 yen, making it affordable and delicious. I last visited on October 25, 2013, after craving beer. The draft beer and appetizers were tasty, especially the assorted skewers. The sausages were the only dish that didn't quite hit the mark. The prices are very reasonable, and I enjoyed two beers and two dishes for around 1470 yen. The staff were friendly and provided good service. I'll definitely be back. Date of visit: October 25, 2013 Yushokuya Pataya is a great place with all dishes priced at 300 yen, making it affordable and delicious. I last visited on July 2, 2013, as a second stop for drinks and snacks. It's a perfect spot when you feel like you haven't had enough at the first place. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the prices are reasonable. I'll definitely be back.

Visited a shop with Psyken-chan to end our outing this time!! ＼(^o^)／ It's a shop with a basic menu of 390 yen items (*^^)v Since I can't drink, this type of shop is new to me!! I'm very interested ♡ There was a cute Volkswagen in front of the shop entrance!! (゜o゜) And the entrance was vinyl (＠_＠;) Exciting and nerve-wracking visit ^m^ The inside of the shop is surprisingly clean... There are many speedy menu items (^。^)y-.。o○ First, we ordered drinks!! ・ Draft beer ・ With oolong tea Along came some bean sprout namul!! We looked at the menu and chose items to order together, but... we were surprised by how similar our choices were!! Like twins (laughs) Having such similar tastes makes the meal so enjoyable!! (*^_^*) What we ordered... ・ Pork pay yakisoba ・ Fried chicken cartilage ・ Stir-fried pork and garlic sprouts ・ Shanghai-style salt-grilled soba About the content and taste... ・ Bean sprout namul... Crispy with a just right amount of sesame oil flavor (*^^)v ・ Pork pay yakisoba... It appeared in the shape of an omelet (^o^)丿 When cut open, it contained stir-fried cabbage, onion, bean sprouts, carrots, and pork!! I've never had yakisoba like this before!! It's substantial (*^^)v with plenty of vegetables, which makes me happy ♡ The pork is also cut into small pieces, but there is no odor and it's tender!! ・ Fried chicken cartilage... It's big!! There's meat around the cartilage (laughs) It has a strong flavor that perfectly balances the texture of the meat and the crunchiness of the cartilage!! ＼(◎o◎)／! ・ Stir-fried pork and garlic sprouts... I love garlic sprouts ♡ They are still young, without any fibers, and tender (*^^)v Strong flavor!! ・ Shanghai-style salt-grilled soba... It uses proper Chinese noodles!! (＠_＠;) With cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, and pork inside (^◇^) Seasoned with MSG and Chinese seasonings (laughs) It's quite salty!! (>_<) This is a bit too unhealthy... (-_-メ) Overall... My first experience at a vinyl izakaya was interesting (^。^)y-.。o○ The seasoning is indeed strong, so you have to be careful not to overeat, but I was surprised at how cheap it was!! ＼(◎o◎)／! If you choose what to eat carefully, it's a good shop for a casual drink and an ending spot for an outing（＾－＾）

A vinyl-covered food stall-style bar with a vegetable market at the entrance. Inside, there are only tables with about 6 seats, no counter. Everything on the menu, both food and drinks, is priced at just ¥300, making it a great place for a casual meal or drink. The atmosphere has a slight Asian vibe. Despite the low price, the portions are decent, offering good value for money. The taste is average. They serve fresh vegetables, yakisoba, and yakisoba noodles. The menu is quite extensive. Despite being somewhat under the radar, it can get fully booked with reservations, and they also offer great banquet courses, perfect for gatherings like girls' night out. In winter, the place is well-heated, so it's cozy even though it's a vinyl-covered establishment.

I went to drink in Kyoto, which is unusual for Yamadera (laughs). I got off at the Keihan Electric Railway Fushimi Momoyama Station, walked along the Ote-suji Shopping Street, and then walked a little south on Ryogaecho Street to find a 300 yen flat-rate izakaya called "Yushokuya Pataya"! It's a lovely place with a cute Volkswagen bus as a landmark. As you walk further on the cobblestone path, you'll find a vinyl sheet entrance. It has a deep feeling that I like. Both drinks and dishes are all 300 yen (tax included, 315 yen). I ordered a fresh lemon chu-hi! Wow, even fresh lemon chu-hi is only 300 yen! That's cheap. First, they bring out the otoshi (200 yen), which is boiled greens, a nice touch. There is a wide variety of dishes available, including rice dishes and desserts. They even have hot pot dishes! The Keichan-yaki is 630 yen, but all other hot pot dishes are only 315 yen. I started with some edamame. There is a group of office workers drinking at the back of the restaurant, and there is also a solo customer in front. I went with a friend, but I might try going alone next time (laughs). The young female staff members are nice, and since it's not a chain izakaya, I like it. Next, I ordered ponkara, which is freshly fried chicken with a ponzu sauce. The vegetable sticks were fresh and crunchy, with radish, carrot, and cucumber dipped in mayonnaise. I also ordered the potato fries with the skin on. It's quite filling and delicious. I prefer the skin-on fries over regular fries. The daikon salad was also ordered and it was a mountain of salad (laughs). Next, I tried the tonpei-yaki, which is a dish of pork and cabbage sautéed in sauce and made into an omelet style. It was also filling and tasty! This restaurant is really not like Kyoto, more like Osaka in a way. The price and portion size are great. I didn't expect to find a restaurant that fits my taste like this in Kyoto (laughs). I need to explore more of Kyoto now. I'll definitely revisit this place. Thank you for the meal! Address: 4-300 Ryogacho, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Closed on Sundays. If Monday is a public holiday, they are open on Sunday and closed on Monday. Hours: 17:00-23:00 (Last order at 22:00) Spiciness level: ★★★☆☆ (medium spicy)

Pataya-san is one of the shops I often use! The atmosphere inside the shop is great and full of personality! And all the dishes and drinks (including beer and other alcohol) inside the shop are all priced at 300 yen each! It's incredibly wallet-friendly! The dishes served are also made by the former patissier shop owner, so the taste is impeccable! Highly recommended are the tonpei-yaki, yakisoba, and the pride of the shop, the Pataya salad made with mostly pesticide-free ingredients! The tonpei-yaki needs no further comments, it's delicious! Order it! The yakisoba comes in various flavors like sauce, salt, and spicy, and the portion is surprisingly large for just 300 yen! The taste is excellent! The fresh salad, piled high with freshly picked vegetables, is brought to your table every day! The special onion dressing perfectly complements the crisp salad! And all of this for just 300 yen!?! You'll be amazed! You won't be able to eat convenience store salads anymore! The portion is about 2.5 times larger than convenience store salads! The staff are also unique, cheerful, and friendly, making your experience even more enjoyable! You'll want to come back to this place again! The menu is extensive, so it's good to try various items! The shrimp fry is also delicious, so I recommend it! This shop is quite precious, as they seem to be offering dishes at a cost almost at the break-even point and giving back to customers. If you happen to be in Fushimi, be sure to give it a try! It's a strong ally for students and those coming back from work, that's Pataya! You'll surely become a regular customer!♪

I went out for drinks with 8 colleagues. Food and drinks all cost 300 yen each, so it's easy to calculate how much we spent. It's a casual space where you can eat and chat comfortably, perfect for socializing. If you like the chaotic atmosphere of Asia, you'll love this place. The staff are friendly and nice. We ordered about 3 servings of each dish since the portions are small. The hot pot is recommended! The gyoza hot pot was delicious, with about five different options available. We also tried the tonpeiyaki, ponkara, and mushroom butter. I was happy to have garlic cheese potatoes as a snack. The variety of drinks is quite good too. This place is more about enjoying the atmosphere than the taste. It's better to go with around 3 people rather than a large group.

I stopped by after work because I wanted to have just one drink. This food stall is operating under a tent, but in the winter, they cover the tent with vinyl and use a stove inside to keep it very warm. I was thinking of having a hot water mixed drink, but because it was so warm, I changed it to draft beer. Here, both drinks and food are basically 300 yen (including tax), which is very cheap. I ordered the popular Ponkara as a beer snack, which was written as the third most popular on the wall. The kimchi served as a side dish with the beer was very delicious. I wonder if they make it here? The Ponkara had a slightly thick coating, but the chicken tempura with thinly sliced onions soaked in ponzu sauce went well with the beer. There were elderly groups enjoying hot pot, men drinking beer with two colleagues, and women having dinner while reading a book. It's a nice place to casually enjoy a drink without worrying too much.

This is also Ume-Koji High Line. An outdoor food event was held using the abandoned railway tracks that were no longer in use due to the opening of a new station in Ume-Koji. Here is the beef tongue yakisoba that my husband bought. It was delicious with plenty of beef tongue. The noodles were thick and chewy. Surprisingly, I got full quickly. This shop also had dishes like butter-grilled shiitake mushrooms, which I personally wanted to try more...lol

On February 11, 2013, there was a warm food gourmet festival held in Mie from February 9 to 11, where a restaurant selling dishes for 300 yen each was present. Their Ponkara dish costs 500 yen and consists of lightly fried chicken with a sweet and savory sauce and green onions on top. The fried chicken itself is average, similar to what you would find in a bento box. However, considering the restaurant's 300 yen price point, the dish feels quite expensive for the portion size. Overall, it was a decent meal. ★★★ Thank you for the meal!
