Chinese restaurant Chicken and Shiso Fried Rice Set Meal for 780 yen (normal serving 500g). In front, there are tables for 5 groups of various sizes. The image is equivalent to 8 tables. It seems like the restaurant extends further back, but the full view is not visible from the aisle. The tablecloths have a green background with a traditional Japanese pattern, giving a Japanese dining room vibe. Upon ordering, a set of soup, simmered shiitake mushrooms, broccoli, and carrots, and pickled vegetables are served immediately. Each portion is quite generous. The soup contains fine rice noodles and carrots. It's a mix of Chinese and Japanese flavors. Before finishing even a bite, the fried rice is served. It's a large portion... A mountain that would be considered a large serving in a regular restaurant. The refreshing taste of shiso leaves gives it a pleasant mouthfeel. The rice is both fluffy and moist, with a good texture. The chicken is plentiful and tender. The flavor is somewhat overshadowed by the shiso but not too strong. Even if a dish is delicious, one might get tired of it after a while. However, the soup is not too heavy, the simmered vegetables have a light saltiness, and the pickled vegetables are not too salty, providing a nice break for the chopsticks (or spoon). It was delicious until the last bite. The menu offers options like medium serving (750g) for an additional 100 yen, large serving (1kg) for an additional 200 yen, and extra-large serving (1.5kg) for an additional 300 yen. The prices are reasonable, but for me, the normal serving was just the right amount (slightly on the larger side). The lunch menu only had one type of dish per genre, and it was a bit disappointing that a more traditional fried rice option wasn't available.

Today's daily special was black vinegar sweet and sour pork set meal. When I had regular sweet and sour pork before, I found it a bit too sweet, but today's black vinegar sweet and sour pork had just the right flavor. It was packed with plenty of meat and had a satisfying portion size. I truly enjoyed a happy meal.

I met again after a long time. Stir-fried black pepper beef and garlic sprouts set meal!! It's delicious! It was so satisfying that I wanted to have a second helping of rice, but I was worried about my stomach bulging, so I resisted. I also love the small dish of yuba. It was the perfect combination.

I finally got to try the daily special menu item, ginger pork stir-fry, which I rarely see. It was a generous portion with a lot of onions. The taste was a bit on the sweet side and lacked a strong ginger flavor. It's not recommended for those who prefer a more refreshing ginger taste in their stir-fry. The side dish changes daily, and I really love this one with yuba.

Mustard seed master... It was a menu I wasn't familiar with. For me, at least. I was curious about what it was like, so I ordered it. And then, right after ordering, it hit me. Is it a mustard seed version of my favorite beef black pepper stir-fry set meal?! A while later, it was brought to me, and it was exactly as I expected. The acidity of the mustard seeds comes to the forefront. My preference is black pepper!

I have been repeating this dish so many times that I can't even count with both hands. While their fried rice is famous, personally, I want to highlight their amazing mapo tofu!! Once you try it, you won't forget it - it's a addictive dish with a sweet and spicy flavor. The mapo tofu is topped with a sweet hoisin sauce and visible sprinkles of Sichuan pepper. You first taste the sweetness, followed by a spicy kick. It's also delicious when poured over the fried rice. I've brought several friends here, and they all praised it. The fried rice comes in a regular version and a seasonal variation, both are delicious. Personally, I can't forget the salted chicken fried rice that I tried once... Everything on the menu is tasty, but I highly recommend the shumai over the dumplings in Tianjin style. The thin skin wrapped around the juicy meat is a delight. The 100 yen almond jelly is also a favorite of mine. It has a strong milky sweetness and a texture more like soft cheese than tofu. The restaurant is run by just one older brother, who has an amazing memory. The retro-style toilet was recently renovated.

When I ordered the shrimp fried rice for 850 yen, it came out in about 1 minute... It was fast, too fast... It was a normal serving size, but surprisingly, it was 500g as stated. You can also get a large serving, but it's quite big so be careful. There's a penalty for leaving food uneaten...

Located within walking distance between Takaramachi and Higashi-Ginza Station, I entered the restaurant around 2:30 PM with a last order at 3 PM. There were a few customers, so I took my time finding a seat. I came here wanting to eat fried rice, but the lunch menu today only had minced meat and black pepper fried rice, which was too spicy for my liking. It seems they also had regular fried rice available. It was a mistake on my part. The portion size was indeed sufficient. The person next to me left some of their regular portion, while the person on the other side finished their medium portion. In addition to the fried rice, there was a small side dish resembling potato in a thick sauce, pickled vegetables, and Chinese soup included in the set for 850 yen, which was reasonable.

From the weekly changing rice bowl set to the Tomato Egg Rice Bowl set. It has quite a visual appeal. As the name suggests, it only has tomato and egg. I was imagining things like wood ear mushrooms being included, but I was wrong... I got a little tired of it halfway through.

I was looking for a lunch spot and noticed a line forming before the opening, so I decided to check it out. Since I got in right after they opened, I was able to get a table quickly even though it was a Saturday. It seems like they mostly do shared seating. I ordered the black pepper stir-fried beef with garlic shoots set meal. However, I regretted my choice after ordering... Everyone else seemed to be ordering fried rice, so I realized it must be a popular dish at this restaurant. I didn't do enough research... But I do like garlic shoot stir-fry, so I was looking forward to it! While waiting, they brought me pickled vegetables, soup, and spring rolls as part of the set meal. I love pickled vegetables, so that was delicious! However, the main dish of garlic shoot stir-fry turned out to be... too spicy with too much black pepper for my liking, and I couldn't eat it... Is this how it's supposed to be? I'm sorry, it was unexpected. I don't like leaving food uneaten, so I tried my best to eat it, but I had to give up after finishing only a third of it. I'm really sorry. If I have the chance to go back, I would like to try the fried rice!

【Memo, Points】The restaurant featured on TV shows like "Every" offers fried rice in various sizes: regular (500g), medium (750g), large (1000g), and extra-large (1500g), with each size upgrade costing an additional 100 yen. If you can't finish your meal, you can purchase a container for 500 yen to take the leftovers home. 【Motivation】I was curious about the large-sized fried rice and decided to visit after seeing it on TV. 【Order, Visit Date, Situation】I ordered the mixed fried rice set (850 yen) with a medium size (750g) for an extra 100 yen. I parked my car on the street parking spot (60 minutes for 300 yen) and arrived around 11:20 on a Tuesday. The restaurant was about 80% full with customers when I arrived, but there was no line outside. After I left around 12:15, there were about 7 people waiting outside. I was seated promptly upon entering the restaurant. 【Impressions】The pickled vegetables were delicious, the potato salad and soup had unique flavors. The fried rice was lightly seasoned and not too greasy. I added some pepper and pickled vegetables from the table to keep the flavors interesting until the last bite.

I was really torn between the weekly special beef and garlic sprout black pepper set meal and the daily special Yurinchi set meal... In the end, I chose the Yurinchi set meal because I don't come across it as often. The Yurinchi sauce is light and refreshing. It goes really well with the fried food. I think it has green onions, pickled vegetables, and onions.

Today I was in East Ginza from the morning. It's so hot... I came to this famous restaurant known for their incredibly large portions of fried rice. I originally planned to try the daily special sweet and sour pork, but when the person in front of me ordered "regular fried rice!" I couldn't resist and ended up ordering the same. I really wanted the mixed fried rice. First, I had the spring roll salad, soup, and pickled vegetables. I nibbled on those while waiting for the main dish. And here it is, my fried rice. This is the regular portion size. I dare not attempt the medium or large sizes, it's a challenge even for a pro. I enjoyed it while mixing in the pickled vegetables and spring rolls. Whenever I'm nearby, I always feel like eating at this restaurant. It was a delicious meal!

When I visited before, I had high expectations because they served a unique cold noodle dish. However, this time I ordered the five-ingredient cold noodles without looking at the menu. I thought, "Was this dish really so ordinary?" The ingredients included tomato, char siu, cucumber, shredded egg, and simmered shiitake mushrooms in a sweet and savory sauce. The noodles were a bit stretchy. The soup was a sweet Edo-style broth. Overall, it was disappointing how ordinary it had become.

After finishing my lunch, I feel so happy and satisfied that I don't want to move at all. It's rare to have such a satisfying lunch experience. If you want to immerse yourself in this feeling, come to Goku this week and try the "Grilled Beef Belly and Winter Melon Stew Set Meal" with me. Put the melt-in-your-mouth beef belly on top of rice, pour the flavorful sauce over it, and you'll feel like you're in heaven!

I often use this place at night, but it was my first time for lunch. I was planning to skip lunch to diet, but the menu I saw on the signboard passing by was too tempting... (tears) Most of the salarymen around me were eating fried rice. Goku's famous fried rice is really delicious, but the amount is quite large and there is a penalty for leaving any leftovers! I hesitated, so I ended up ordering the pork and squid oyster stir-fry set meal. It arrived in 3 minutes, and it looked like enough for three people... The thought of the penalty for leaving any leftovers crossed my mind. The set meal should be fine, right? The side papaya and carrot salad, pickled vegetables, and even the amount of rice were all large. Can I handle this... The penalty crossed my mind, so I managed to finish the main dish and rice like a big eater! It was delicious but my stomach hurt. I'm sure it's okay to leave some of the set meal, but I couldn't bring myself to do it, so I finished it all. It's quite a challenge for girls because it's a large amount, so it might be better to order less rice or ask for a smaller portion at first. Instead of dieting, I ended up overeating for the day, haha. But it's a really good deal.

Every week they offer a different fried rice dish. The portions are generous and satisfying. I visited during lunchtime and ordered the soy sauce-flavored pork fried rice set for 850 yen. It was served in about 5 minutes. The fried rice was a bit lukewarm, possibly pre-made. The soy sauce flavor was strong today. If it had been served hot, it would have been more flavorful. Despite that, I'm glad I got to try their weekly special fried rice. It seems like about one in three people orders fried rice during lunchtime. Considering the speed of service, it's understandable. Overall, I enjoyed it!

The address is Ginza 1-chome station, which is closer to Takaracho station. It is crowded with reasonable lunch options, and the popular choice here is the shrimp fried rice set. Everyone else also ordered the shrimp fried rice. When you sit down, macaroni salad, egg soup, and pickles are served immediately. After a bite of salad, a large portion of fried rice is served. It's a huge amount, probably too much for women to finish. There seems to be about four bowls of rice. I'm full. The taste is a bit salty. I would like to try other set meals next time. There are horse racing photos on the wall, maybe the owner is a horse owner?

This time, I tried liver and leek stir-fry for the first time. It's not often on the menu, so I was happy to finally try it. The seasoning was wonderful. The liver was not dry, but moist and very delicious. I was very satisfied with the generous portion of liver and leek stir-fry.

At Goku, the oyster sauce dish was stable and reliable. It was my first time trying it, and it looked and tasted as I expected. Of course, it was delicious. The boiled tofu side dish was light and tasty, but a bit difficult to pick up with chopsticks. ^_^

Fried tofu is great. Even though it's called Sichuan stew, it's not that spicy. It's full of vegetables, including Chinese cabbage. As always, it's a hearty portion! I love dishes with fried tofu, but they don't often appear on the menu. ^_^
