Yushoku Dining jipangu

Since its opening in 2007, it has been loved by locals for 15 years.

What is surprising is a wide variation in menus from Japanese, Western, to Chinese cuisine.

The owner Mr. and Mrs. Watanabe said, "While we were responding to customer requests, the number of dishes increased rapidly (laughs)." The signature dish of such a restaurant with a great service spirit is the Indonesian-style spicy fried rice "Nasi Goreng".

The owner and his wife, who are very fond of Bali, learned a secret recipe from a local friend's restaurant and arranged it as a specialty dish.

Sambal chili sauce and manis, which are unique to Indonesia, are used to create a sweet and spicy flavor with a hint of shrimp, giving you an exotic feeling.

If you like spicy food, you can add chili sauce to your liking, so be sure to give it a try. The local way to enjoy it is to eat it with the accompanying shrimp crackers.

Pork curry made with plenty of fruits such as bananas, apples, and peaches, and slowly stewed.

You can choose one topping from fried eggs, cheese, various vegetables, etc. You can also adjust the spiciness.

All of the menus introduced here come with salad and soup and are a great value at 700 yen.

What's more, you can enjoy dinner at the same price.

Korean food Umejima Pappusan

“Spicy food is definitely Korean food!” Many people may think so.

This restaurant, which is right next to Umejima Station on the Tobu Skytree Line, offers everything from classic Korean home cooking and izakaya menus to slightly more maniacal dishes.

Especially recommended in the hot summer is "Bibim Reimen", which is extremely spicy despite its cool appearance.

Spicy seasoning, yangnyeom is mixed with the noodles. It surely satisfies drinkers.

On the top of the tomato in the center is the pickled daikon radish which you can enjoy accented flavor while eating a hot spicy noodle.

The noodles, which are made mainly from buckwheat flour and mixed with wheat flour, have a texture that is familiar to Japanese people. There is also a non-spicy “water cold noodles 880 yen”. By making the soup itself into sherbet-like form, you can enjoy it cold without diluting the taste, which is also popular.

Squid and green onions are stir-fried in a sweet and salty seasoning, making it the perfect accompaniment to alcohol. It is also recommended to order the "Sanchu set (with perilla) 450 yen" and wrap it in a leaf and eat it.

Healthy pure tofu (sundubu) has become very popular in Japan. The base of the soup is seafood such as clams, squid, and shrimp, and it goes well with rice. Small is for 1-2 people, and large is 1,600 yen for 2-3 people.

There are also rare menus that appear on the whiteboard inside the shop, so be sure to check them out.

Rokucho Hanten

Among the variety of Chinese cuisine, this restaurant boasts a variety of Sichuan cuisine, which is known for its spiciness.

There are various types of spiciness, and the spiciness of “Mala”, which is representative of Sichuan, is a bit different.

"Ma" means numb. By using a kind of sansho pepper, in addition to the spiciness of chili peppers, it creates a deep and unique spiciness.

Let's try "Mala", which has a high sweating effect as a synergistic effect.

Beef noodles that are popular throughout China are finished with a Mala flavor.

As you can see, it's a dish with a vivid spiciness, but the combination of coriander and Sichuan pepper gives it a much more refreshing taste than you might imagine. In addition, the noodles are made by shaving lumps of wheat flour with a sword, giving them a unique chewy texture.

It is one of the famous Sichuan dishes that stir-fried chicken with a large amount of red pepper and Sichuan pepper.

The spices are less used than the original, and it is adjusted to mild taste adding garlic sprouts, so don't worry. However, when eating, it is recommended that you be careful not to put the red pepper and Sichuan pepper seeds in your mouth.

Welcome to a Mala world, where once you get hooked, you can't turn back.
