I got off at Uji Higashi Inter and came to Sukiya right away. Lately, I often come here for breakfast before golfing. The breakfast set at the gyudon chain is cheap, filling, and just right before golf. ✔️Natto Bacon Egg Breakfast 460 yen The taste is average everywhere, but it's a good deal and fills you up.

Salmon set meal 520 yen, egg 60 yen, nori seaweed 30 yen 【Total】610 yen I entered the restaurant around 10:30 a.m. Today, I have plans in the evening, so I knew my meal schedule would be irregular, so I decided to have a light lunch early. It was a TKG (Tamago Kake Gohan - raw egg over rice) with seasoned seaweed, which I haven't had in a while, and it was delicious (๑′ᴗ‵๑) It filled me up just as I expected. I'm satisfied, satisfied (^^) Thank you for the meal m(_ _)m

Salmon and natto set meal for 620 yen. I woke up at a weird time, so I decided to have brunch. There's nothing particularly special to mention, but it was nicely put together. I was about 70% full, so it was a bit lacking in quantity, but overall I'm satisfied. Thank you for the meal.

On January 4th (Saturday) around 13:25, I visited. I've recently been hooked on taking walks, and even though I don't walk much on this side, I came seeking meat. The meat I had during New Year's was expensive and not that great, so I came for revenge... It's quite a budget-friendly option! That's fine by me! It's perfect for B-class gourmet. The rice comes in a large serving for free. The difference from before is that now it comes with two raw eggs! It's so nice~ Add 200 yen for double the meat serving! It was delicious! Thank you for the meal!

Around 1pm on November 28, 2018 (Wednesday), I have been gaining weight rapidly recently, and although I want to eat delicious food, I have started to worry that things might get serious if I continue at this pace. So, I have started a low-carb diet as a way to comfort myself. I saw online that even at the nearby Sukiya restaurant, they offer some low-carb menu items, so I decided to go to the "Sukiya Uji Higashi IC store". I sat at the counter and looked through the menu book provided, but I couldn't find it anywhere!!! Oh no! Could it be limited to certain stores? Just as I started to panic, I found the low-carb menu on a different sheet. Phew, that's a relief... I immediately ordered the "Low-Carb Beef Noodles" for 490 yen (tax included). The dish was served in about 4 minutes. The bowl contained fried tofu, tempura bits, green onions, and plenty of beef and onions for gyudon. When I lifted the noodles with chopsticks, I saw flat curly noodles come out. The menu stated that it was konjac noodles. When I tasted it, I could definitely feel the unique elasticity of konjac, but it was still enjoyable. The fried tofu was of a decent size with a sweet seasoning and a normal texture. The broth had a good flavor of bonito dashi. The seasoned beef and onions also paired well with the low-carb noodles. Overall, it was a tasty meal for a konjac noodle dish. And all of this for 490 yen, truly commendable, Sukiya! This menu item is worth trying out. Thank you for the delicious meal ♡♡♡♡

Since the SAO clear file was sold out, I just had a regular gyudon set. Mixing in the egg added a nice richness to the flavor.✌️

"Pork miso soup is recommended on cold days. It will warm you up."

I got off the train at a station between two destinations and was feeling hungry around 12:30. While walking aimlessly, I stumbled upon a Sukiya restaurant. I was hoping for something more special like famous ramen, but there was nothing else around. If I kept walking, I would have reached Byodoin Temple, where all the shops are touristy and expensive. So, I decided to settle for Sukiya. It was just like any other restaurant with counter seating. I heard they are considering raising prices soon, which might take away its charm. I ordered the regular salad set for 500 yen. The taste was decent for the price. I might visit Sukiya again before the prices go up.

I don't usually eat at Sukiya, but I decided to go to the store near Uji Higashi Interchange. There were only 2 or 3 customers inside, all having beef bowls so early in the morning. I ordered a beef bowl, but it seemed like there was only one staff member working and they were quite busy. It made me wonder if Sukiya has changed their employee structure. I also saw a similar scene at the Seta store the other day, where the service to customers was lacking and the beef bowl was overly salty. Sukiya, please step up your game a bit.

On this day, I was working in Uji City (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ. I was paired up with our company's foreman (NO.2) for work. Lately, I've been working with the foreman more and more. The foreman is set to retire next year, but he seems like he'll be active for another 10 years. Naturally, I have lunch with the foreman when we work together, but there's one problem. The foreman, who is married, doesn't have to make a bento box for his wife because she's not a morning person due to health reasons, so he's a nice guy. However, when it comes to lunch, he always suggests going to a convenience store for food, and I can't stand convenience store meals. I vowed to never eat convenience store food, but the foreman always insists on going there for lunch. It's like two parallel lines that will never intersect. So, on this day, as expected, we ended up going to a convenience store for lunch. We arrived at a convenience store near the site, but the parking lot was full. I suggested a good ramen shop nearby, but the foreman insisted on going to another convenience store a little further away. We ended up at a convenience store at the corner of the entrance road to the Uji Higashi Interchange on the Kyoto-Shiga Bypass. Across the intersection, there was a Sukiya restaurant. It was better than convenience store food, I guess. The foreman and I went to Sukiya to have lunch. It had been a while since I had lunch at a major beef bowl chain. We entered the restaurant, which was crowded during lunchtime. Sukiya offers a variety of beef bowl options, but I decided to go with the classic beef bowl. As I was looking at the menu, I came across a "Mini Curry Set." It was a tempting set where you could have a little curry with your beef bowl. I fell for it and ordered the Mini Curry Set with a regular beef bowl. The set arrived quickly. The curry had chunks of potatoes, carrots, and meat, just like in the menu photo. It was a bit exaggerated, but there were indeed plenty of large pieces in the curry. I wondered if they used the same retort curry as Matsuya. Well, it's not as good as homemade curry, but it's better than convenience store food. I started eating the curry, which was on the sweet side, like children's curry. It's a flavor that everyone can enjoy. The curry had large pieces of ingredients, which was nice. Overall, it was a good meal.

I've been really into fried chicken recently, especially the fried chicken curry after the negi-tama gyudon. However, sometimes when I go around 10-11pm, I can't eat the fried chicken. I don't know if it's maintenance or something else, but it's disappointing for those looking forward to it. It would be better if they could announce the times when fried chicken is available. That way, I could go at that time and avoid feeling disappointed. Well, it's delicious so I'll be going back again.
