I visited the meat restaurant Mansei in Kanda for lunch with colleagues for the first time. - Porko Napoletana: 980 yen The Napoletana had just the right amount of salt and was delicious, with the porko being fatty and tasty! It comes with rice and miso soup as standard, but I opted for just the miso soup, which was also delicious! I thought it might be like the Kansai-style yakisoba set meal, but the Napoletana set meal was a pleasant surprise!

I went to "TOHO Cinemas Nihonbashi" and got a little lost, but got off at Kanda instead of Ueno. Along the way from Oji Station, I already saw colorful girls in yukata here and there, wondering if there was a fireworks festival somewhere. However, when I delved deeper into the idea of a fireworks festival, I realized it could have a negative impact on my mental state (lol), so I quickly switched gears and decided to enjoy the ghost town atmosphere around Kanda Station on this Sunday, which is not usually seen on weekdays, like Will Smith in "I Am Legend." Upon entering "Niku no Mansei Kanda Ekimae Store," I was pleased to be guided to a nice table by a waiter in a dignified butterfly tie, despite my casual appearance. During lunchtime, the menu was only a single sheet on the table. But as soon as I sat down, I found "the usual" in it, so I confidently ordered the "Hamburger & Napolitan Lunch/120g." A couple who seemed like American tourists rushed in from the scorching outside world, seeking refuge at the table. I found it interesting that in a country where "Ladies first" is the norm, the man took the higher seat without hesitation. It made me realize that Japan is still behind in terms of gender equality, just like with LGBT issues. The "Hamburger & Napolitan Lunch/120g" arrived, and I realized I had forgotten to ask for corn potage instead of miso soup as I usually do. Oh well, it was too late now! I focused on adding salt and pepper in the right places and started my summer ritual with the Napolitan. The ketchup's noble red color and the flavor of the Napolitan made me forget about the unreasonable "conversion of lunch set menu to single item" imposed by the "specific health guidance support." I chanted in my mind, "Thank you, Ton," as I enjoyed the Napolitan with the potatoes as my side dish. As I indulged in the Napolitan's ketchup, I thought, it's okay to just relax and enjoy it like a child. [Movie talk below] 2021, 117 minutes, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Sweden "Innocents" A child who was thought to have a developmental disorder turns out to be an alien sent to save Earth from creatures. When the classmates who naturally befriended him reach adulthood and are in trouble, he awakens suddenly to save them all. This psychic thriller from Norway reminded me of Stephen King's "Dreamcatcher," which combines the occult, psychic abilities, aliens, and creatures. "Children can be surprisingly cruel," "A certain ability is brought about by the lack of another ability," "Children who are not yet established as individuals are more likely to synchronize with others' consciousness." These are things I have come to understand in my life. In conclusion, this thriller from Norway combines psychic abilities and the unique darkness of Scandinavia. I wonder if there are apartments like this in Norway, known for having few people? (Hey!) I always thought that in Scandinavia, people play musical instruments loudly at home because there are few people, and that's why heavy metal is popular. (It's great that you can practice drums at home normally, lol) A family that moved to an apartment to change their environment.

This time I ordered the ginger pork and got the regular size. It came with plenty of vegetables, so it was quite filling. The meat itself had a good texture and I was satisfied with it. There were toppings available, but I decided not to add any, which turned out to be a good choice. I might try adding some next time I order the hamburger!

Kanda Station is about a minute walk from the restaurant located under the elevated tracks. I ordered the Japanese-style hamburger with grated ponzu sauce. The ponzu sauce had a strong acidity to it. The price of 1500 yen, which includes rice and miso soup, felt a bit on the expensive side. The taste was somewhat average.

Kanda Station area for an early lunch. Lately, I've been gravitating towards Kanda without even realizing it. With limited time and wanting to grab a quick meal near the station, I noticed "Niku no Mansei" restaurant. Oh, I always associated it with Akihabara, but they have one in Kanda too. I instinctively walked in and was quickly shown to a spacious table. Come to think of it, it might have been over 10 years since I last dined at Mansei. Looking around, I saw many lively senior customers enjoying their steaks. I can't lose... Let's go for some meat too. I ordered the "Hamburger 120g and Domestic Beef Cut Steak 70g for 2,145 yen." The hamburger was decent. Not exceptionally delicious, but it had a nostalgic taste that I didn't dislike. The coarse ground meat was hearty, with the saltiness of the cheese adding flavor, giving me the energy to keep eating. On the other hand, the steak didn't quite give me the satisfaction of eating meat. Well, it's only 70g, so I can't be too picky... The female server's hospitality felt genuine and the relaxed atmosphere of the restaurant made it comfortable. Perhaps, this kind of service and the laid-back ambiance are what appeal to the senior customers.

Time has passed since my last visit (currently 7/3). I was starving, so I jumped in and ordered the pork cutlet sandwich for 800 yen (excluding tax). It was the same as before, which was a relief (although there was a 55 yen price increase). The taste was also unchanged. The pork cutlet sandwich is delicious. It's satisfying. The deliciousness of the cutlet is one thing, but this also means that the bread is decently tasty. If it weren't for the calorie issue, I could probably eat this every week without getting tired of it. However, I wonder if it's just me... the fried potatoes seemed tastier before. Oh well, it's fine. Complaining about this price might bring bad luck.

I visited after a month with a scratch card coupon, so I decided to use it! I ordered the black wagyu teppanyaki 120g with spicy soy sauce for ¥2145! I used the coupon to get a ¥100 discount! The meat had a sweet taste and went well with the sauce!

Every time I visit Kanda, I always make sure to stop by this restaurant! The customer service is polite and you can enjoy a leisurely time, with a wide range of dishes from hamburgers to set meals. You can have a luxurious time in a calm atmosphere, so be sure to visit when you are in Kanda!

Next to Kanda Station, there is a yakiniku restaurant called Mansei. The first floor is a restaurant, and the second floor is the yakiniku area. When you climb the stone stairs, the interior of the restaurant is dimly lit, with walls resembling stone carvings, giving it a cave-like atmosphere. Today, they didn't have the affordable and delicious lunch set I had before (sad face), so I ordered the 3 kinds of meat set (Japanese beef lean meat, Japanese beef kalbi, Japanese beef brisket). 100g for 1969 yen. It comes with rice, soup, and a choice of side dish (kimchi, bean sprout namul, or salad) with free rice refills. The beer they had was Suntory Malts Stars Dream (happy face). The meat is cooked on a gas stove. Mmm, Japanese beef is the best! All of them were tender, juicy, and delicious. The lean meat was very thin, but when eaten with kimchi, rice, and meat together, it was absolutely delightful! Japanese beef is expensive, but I'm satisfied with this deliciousness. I wish I could have eaten 150g though (2739 yen) LOL.

I had Parco Ramen here in the past! Although I had the chance to go back, I hadn't visited until today! I ordered the Parco Neapolitan for ¥1078 (tax included)! The menu shows prices without tax. The Neapolitan isn't traditional, but it's well-seasoned with only onions and green peppers for toppings! The pork has a sweet flavor and is served with pickled ginger, providing a refreshing taste! The lunch set comes with rice and pork miso soup. You can get a refill of rice! The miso soup is filled with ingredients!

Time has passed, so I'll keep it brief (currently 3/8). I wanted to eat some meat, so I came here. I ordered a 70g cut steak and a 120g hamburger for 1900 yen (excluding tax). The steak was smaller than I expected. It felt like it disappeared before I could really savor it (lol). Well, it's only 70g, so I guess that's how it is. (As expected, Kitchen Check offers the best value for steak...) The hamburger was just delicious. However, the side of fried potatoes seemed kind of old-school McDonald's-like. In other words, it seemed like a frozen, powdered type. Was it always like this? Or was it just today that they were fried for a shorter time, making them seem powdery (and not tasty)? Either way, considering the current situation, it's a bit difficult for common people to pay over 2000 yen for this... It seems that this place is more recommended for sandwiches and Korean-style rice dishes (everyone's just poor).

I entered the store around 6 p.m. on a regular weekday. I usually go to the main store in Akihabara, but it seems that the GO TO coupon can only be used at this store, so I walked here for some exercise. By the way, this is my first time visiting Mansei at a location other than the main store. Perhaps it's a bit early, but I was the only customer from the time I entered until I left. Also, I noticed immediately after entering that there was an unpleasant smell coming from the kitchen, even through my mask. It seems like the grease trap cleaning is not being done properly... It's a shame because the food is delicious. I will definitely go back to the main store next time. Thank you for the meal.

I revisited the restaurant today because I had a delicious "Iron Pot Bibimbap" last time. Today, I ordered "Galbi Tang" which was also spicy and tasty. The portion of galbi was a bit small, but overall, the meal was enjoyable and reasonably priced. The bibimbap is especially recommended as it is flavorful and the crispy rice at the bottom adds a nice touch.

I ordered the recommended "Pork Cutlet Neapolitan" for lunch at the shop. It was smaller than in the menu photo, but I thought this size was just right. The juicy pork cutlet on top of the Neapolitan was delicious. It was a set meal with rice and miso soup (vegetable soup) included, making it a great deal. I will definitely come back for lunch again.

Located in Akihabara, the main branch of "Niku no Mansei" is known for dishes like the pork cutlet sandwich, but it is actually a Western-style restaurant. As my commute is to Kanda Station, I have been curious about this place for a while. I ordered the Cheese Hamburg with Demi-glace sauce. It comes on a sizzling hot plate with a 150g hamburger patty topped with cheese, so it is more substantial than I imagined. The sauce was not exactly to my liking, but considering the price, the spacious seating area, and the attentive service, I would definitely consider coming back. Plus, you can get a free extra serving of rice.

After returning from my trip, I had dinner at the Kanda Station front store of the well-known "Niku no Mansei." The hamburger steak 120g and cut steak set was a classic Japanese meal with no flaws. In my opinion, the side miso soup and pickles were one of the key points of evaluation. This is important, right? Overall, it was a satisfying meal. Thank you for the feast.

I used to go there before. The hamburger with cheese and fried egg topped with special sauce was a perfect combination. The price might be a bit high, but the taste is rich and satisfying. I recommend it to those who want to eat hamburgers near Tokyo Station.

This is the Kanda Ekimae branch of Niku no Mansei. I visited around the end of lunchtime, so I was able to enter without waiting in line. I saw that they accept the Tadaima Tokyo Plus app outside the store, so I still had some credit left and I wanted to try Niku no Mansei for the first time, so I decided to have lunch here. I chose the service lunch set with a 120g hamburger and ginger pork, with the recommended demiglace sauce. The dishes were served after waiting for about 7-8 minutes. The sizzling hamburger on the hot plate got me excited to eat. I thought I would go easy on the rice, but the hamburger and ginger pork were so delicious that I was happy to have a second helping of rice. The miso soup was also tasty! I was full and asked for the bill. I was able to use the Tadaima Tokyo Plus app without any issues. I actually intended to go to Yakiniku Sakaba 2919 Kanda branch, but I got lost and couldn't find it, so it was a happy mistake to end up here. Maybe next time I'll try the Napolitan. Thank you for the meal.

I had lunch at Niku no Mansei near Kanda Station in Tokyo. I ordered the hamburger lunch and salad lunch. After eating, I also had soft serve ice cream for 160 yen, which can be ordered after 13:30. It was disappointing that the female staff member's response was not very good when I informed her that my companion would be arriving a little late for our meeting.

This is a long-established Western restaurant located right under the elevated tracks, with a red sign and a cow design mark as its distinctive features. Their main dishes are hamburg steak and steak, with spaghetti Napolitan also available. I tried the lunch menu which included a tenderloin cutlet with just the right amount of fat, served with grated daikon and ponzu sauce. It was soft and delicious, with a great harmony with the ponzu sauce. The steaks are all made from high-quality meat and served on a hot iron plate.
