I love the croquettes here! Delicious! (๑´ڡ`๑)

"2014.07 New Review & 2 Photos" Why is it that fried foods lined up neatly at the butcher shop's fried food corner are so enticing? Especially when there's a sign for a special sale, it's like being drawn in by a net, isn't it? This time, I was particularly sensitive to the announcement of "Now starting the croquette time sale for 50 yen!" and I fell right into the trap (laughs). I was planning to buy croquettes, but ended up buying ham cutlets instead! I really like these (laughs). At that time, I managed to stick to just the croquettes for 140 yen. When I got home and cut into it, it was surprisingly thick for the price! With one bite, the unique aroma of the butcher's fat (lard, perhaps?) mixed with the taste of ham. Mmm! It's a ham cutlet that is typical of a butcher shop. I enjoyed it with sauce and mayonnaise. It was a great deal to savor the ham cutlet from Takedaya for 140 yen. Nice performance! Next time, I might buy the 50 yen croquette and tonkatsu as well. I now have more reasons to go to Kyoto Family for their cutlets. My rating during the visit in June 2014: Overall: 3.4, Food & Taste: 3.5, Service: 3.5, Atmosphere: 3.6, Value for Money: 3.6, Alcohol & Drinks: 0.0"

This is "Takenoya" on the first floor of Kyoto Family. They sell high-quality Japanese beef, but today I bought some fried food for takeout. They were a bit cheaper than usual because it was a special sale day. Croquette ¥38 (excluding tax) x It feels like it shouldn't be sold Minced cutlet ¥48 (excluding tax)◎ Very delicious! The minced cutlet, made with high-quality meat, was incredibly delicious. It seems to be packed with the flavor of good meat. However, the difference between the croquette and the minced cutlet is too extreme. Compared to the delicious minced cutlet full of Japanese beef taste, what is this croquette exactly? It feels like it's made by mixing dried potato powder, skim milk powder, and water. I couldn't find any ground meat even when I poked it with chopsticks. I hope they improve this even if it's cheap. I will definitely come back next time just to buy the minced cutlet. This place is highly recommended.

There is a parking lot available at Kyoto Family, so I took advantage of the discounted prices on Fridays and got some takeout. They offer a variety of side dishes like croquettes and sausage fries, which seemed popular among other customers. I chose the lotus root and green pepper stuffed deep-fried dishes. They cost around 120-140 yen each and are quite generous in size! The thick layer of minced meat and the flavorful lotus root were delicious. The slightly bitter green pepper also paired well with the minced meat, making it a satisfying meal. I would love to buy them again on a discounted day. They are perfect for a home-cooked dinner. Thank you for the meal.

Director Shinichi Fujisaki of BODYPIT KYOTO here. I felt like having motsunabe (offal hot pot) since morning, so I headed to Taketaya, the meat shop inside Kyoto Family. The meat here is incredibly delicious. The offal is also fresh. I was able to enjoy motsunabe at home thanks to their ingredients! Thank you very much.

On the first floor of Kyoto Family, there is a butcher shop. They offer both face-to-face sales and pre-packaged meats on refrigerated shelves, as well as fried foods. I purchased an easy and convenient seasoned barbecue meat pack for dinner. It was just the right amount for my husband and me, and the price was reasonable. We enjoyed it for dinner. The balance of fat in the pork belly meat was good for the price, and the sauce was also delicious. Thank you for the meal!

The rating of the shop during the visit was 3.05. The reason for the change in croquettes was that the croquette artisan retired. The new croquette looks different from before, as it used to be small, thin, and cute, but now it is large, thick, and has a sense of weightiness. The taste is sweet and gentle, with a rich flavor that makes you want to eat several pieces. It is satisfying enough to eat just one croquette. Although there may be mixed opinions about the new croquette, I think I will continue to buy it without change.

Kyoto Family, well, those outside of Kyoto probably wouldn't know about it. It's a small mall located quite far west in Kyoto city, part of the Aeon group. Now, there's a regular customer of a certain shop there, a meat shop, who is quite friendly with the staff. It turns out, this person also works in the same mall. Sometimes, they bring over some meat as a gift, and that's what happened this time. First up, beef tongue (no photo). Oh, it's delicious. And then there's the misuji. Another tender and flavorful cut of beef. It's been a while since I could eat this much, so this amount was just right. Thank you for the meal.
