Good evening~. Today's review is from the Haruyoshi area in Fukuoka City, Chuo Ward. The restaurant "Karen" is operated by JA Kagoshima Prefecture Economic Federation, offering Kagoshima black beef, black pork, and popular dishes like steamed dishes and shabu-shabu. On this day, we visited this restaurant for my father-in-law's 60th birthday celebration. He wanted to have shabu-shabu, so we made a reservation for 5 people - my father-in-law, mother-in-law, wife, myself, and my brother-in-law. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and is suitable for celebrations and entertaining guests. We were led to a private seating area by a waitress in a kimono. We ordered the "Shabu-Shabu Set Meal for 2900 yen (excluding drinks)" from the lunch menu. The meal included various dishes such as appetizers, tempura, roast beef, sashimi, and a shabu-shabu set with Kagoshima black beef and black pork. The tempura was crispy, the sashimi was fresh, and the roast beef was tender and delicious. The highlight was the shabu-shabu, which came in a unique paper pot. The Kagoshima black beef and black pork were of high quality and melted in the mouth. The broth was also delicious and enhanced the flavor of the meat. We ended the meal with dessert and coffee. Overall, we were satisfied with the meal, which was reasonably priced at 2900 yen per person. The quality of the meat was excellent, and we would love to try the steamed dishes next time. Thank you for the wonderful meal~.

I drove to a restaurant I wanted to try for lunch on the weekend, but unfortunately it was closed that day. So, I decided to try another restaurant that I had been wanting to visit, a direct store operated by JA Kagoshima Economic Federation. They serve Kagoshima black pork, black beef, and black Satsuma chicken. I was seated in an empty private room and ordered the Kagoshima black beef roast beef bowl, which is a lunch limited menu. The beef was A5 rank and it was delicious. The meal came with free extra rice, and I also had a hot coffee after finishing my meal. The restaurant was clean and had a high-class atmosphere. I enjoyed the meal and would like to visit again to try their other dishes.

It wasn't very crowded as it was during the daytime, so we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal. The lunch was priced at ¥4500, a bit on the expensive side, but it included a variety of dishes such as small appetizers, sashimi, roast beef, tonkatsu, shabu-shabu, and dessert with a drink, so we were very satisfied. The atmosphere was nice and the food was delicious. I would recommend it for business meetings and other occasions.

I last visited this restaurant 3 years ago! I made a reservation tonight to eat Kagoshima black beef and black pork! The quality is definitely maintained and you will not be disappointed! Since there are only two of us, we cannot order any more dishes, but the portion is sufficient and we are full! The prices may seem high compared to other restaurants, but it is worth it!

I had steamed hot pot and it was delicious. The meat was flavorful and the vegetables became sweeter when steamed. Even my friend who doesn't like vegetables enjoyed it. The best part is that the sauce doesn't get diluted like in regular hot pot. I would love to go back again! Thank you for the meal!

The course lunch for shabu-shabu with seasonal vegetable tempura added, finishing with black wagyu beef, and ramen made by a female cook was perfect with the noodles cooked just right. The pork belly and shoulder loin have a delicious sweetness typical of black pork. While the black wagyu beef may be pricey, its quality is undeniable.

This time, I had lunch at Kagoshima Zan❣️ As expected, Kagoshima's meat is delicious❣️ The meal was very luxurious and filled me up. It was nice to be able to enjoy it in a private room. I also introduced it on YouTube. https://youtu.be/ZeSE19aZCc4

I would like to use this restaurant often for business meals, but I used it for private use for the first time. The service and the dishes that came out were very delicious and I was very satisfied with the restaurant. I would like to use it again soon.

Spring Yoshikichi's "Karean Hakata Store" is a high-class shabu-shabu specialty store where you can enjoy high-quality meat. They have won the National Wagyu Ability Competition for 7 consecutive years, so you can enjoy Kagoshima's carefully selected Wagyu beef. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is luxurious, and the service is polite and wonderful. There are many private rooms available, making it suitable for dates or business entertainment. The meat was delicious, especially the beef which was tender and my favorite. There are many course options to choose from. You can enjoy two types of sauces, sesame dressing and ponzu. Although it is a bit pricey, I definitely want to go back.店舗情報ー◇ー◇ー◇ー◇ーStore Name: Karean Hakata Store Hours: 11:30-14:00, 17:30-22:00 Phone: 092-725-1905 Price: Approximately 18,000 yen per person Closed: New Year's Private Rooms: Available Location: B1F, Panorama Square Hakata, 3-11-19 Haruyoshi, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

Hualien's lunch set is so luxurious and surprising! The food and atmosphere are very satisfying. It's great to be able to have a mature meal. It seems like you have to make an effort to go at night, but lunch is definitely worth it and recommended! (o^-')b !

Located at B1F Panorama Square, 3-chome Haruyoshi, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, "Karin" is a store directly operated by JA Kagoshima Prefecture Economic Federation! The restaurant uses Kagoshima's "black beef & black pork" as well as being a base for promoting Kagoshima brands. The interior has a luxurious atmosphere with spacious private rooms and open floor seating. We tried the recommended course, "Kagoshima Gorgeous Shabu-shabu and Sukiyaki Course: 9,000 yen". The course includes 6 dishes: appetizer (three varieties), sashimi, tempura, black beef fillet, black beef sirloin, black pork belly, vegetable assortment, rice, soup, pickles or udon, and dessert (sweet potato ice cream or sorbet). The quality of the dishes, from the appetizer to the sashimi and tempura, was impressive. The main meats, black beef fillet, sirloin, and black pork, were all delicious. The quality of the meats may vary depending on the course level, but the "Gorgeous" course offers satisfying choices. The meal ended with udon and dessert. The staff, dressed in kimonos, provided good service. I would recommend this restaurant and look forward to visiting again in the future. Thank you for the meal. Enjoy Gourmet Life☆

The quality of the meat and the interior of the restaurant were good, but I didn't feel much hospitality or customer service spirit. I had sukiyaki, but the seasoning was not to my liking, perhaps because I am used to the sweet soy sauce from Saga. The setup with the electronic cooker and iron pot was a bit confusing, as there was no explanation after the first piece of meat was cooked. We had a reservation for 6:30, but we didn't start eating until 7:30 due to the slow pace of the staff. It seems like the prices have gone up recently, as we ended up spending over 30,000 yen for two additional meat dishes for two people. Adding rice and miso soup to the sukiyaki set costs an extra 2000 yen excluding tax.

This time I visited Hanaren Hakata store. It is located at 3-11-19 Haruyoshi, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, in the Panorama Square Hakata B1F. I went for lunch and the atmosphere was amazing, giving off a sophisticated adult vibe. I ordered the pork cutlet set meal. The dishes were carefully selected and the presentation was outstanding. Thank you for the delicious meal.

This restaurant, managed by Kagoshima JA, offers Kagoshima beef, pork, and chicken. It is recommended for entertaining guests as they have private rooms and also offer lunch options. I often come here for lunch because my company is nearby, but this time I used it for dinner after a long time. It was a Friday and popular restaurants were all full, but when I called this place, they had an available table which was lucky! This place is famous for their steamed hotpot (steamed shabu-shabu), but this time I opted for sukiyaki. I ordered just the meat as I wanted to enjoy the flavor. I savored the sirloin sukiyaki. The sukiyaki made with Kanto-style broth was light and refreshing. It might not be satisfying for those who prefer Kansai-style, but it allowed me to fully enjoy the taste of the meat. I was too hungry to take a picture before eating everything.

I used it for a lunchtime business meeting! The entrance is spacious and has a luxurious feel. The restaurant is also spacious and well-designed, making it perfect for entertaining guests! This time, I ordered the "Kagoshima black pork loin cutlet." The food was brought out promptly. The dishes themselves also exuded a sense of luxury and attention to detail. The cutlet was delicious, although I didn't feel it was exceptionally tasty given the atmosphere. I heard they use good quality meat from JA Kagoshima. It seems like their main dishes are steamed dishes and sukiyaki, so I would like to try those next time. Thank you for the meal.

This time, I visited the Hanaren Hakata store located at 3-11-19 Haruyoshi, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, in the Panorama Square Hakata B1F. It seems to be operated by JA Kagoshima. You can't go wrong with their meat. The store is located underground along the Kokutai Road in Panorama Square Hakata. The building has a nice atmosphere, with a clean white curtain at the entrance. The entrance gives off a luxurious vibe. The rooms are elegantly designed in a Japanese style. The staff dressed in kimono also add to the experience. We started with a toast with beer and ordered the special Kagoshima black beef and black pork steamed dish for 5,800 yen. The course included an appetizer, black beef sirloin, black pork shoulder loin, black pork belly, rice, soup, pickles, and dessert. The beautifully marbled meat was delicious, and the pork was tender and tasty. The beer and highball also complemented the meal well. We were satisfied and had a great dining experience. Thank you for the meal.

In late autumn of 2018, after a long time, I went to a cozy private room with five middle-aged men. We couldn't decide between pork and beef, so we each ordered two servings, which worked out well with five people. We made sure to add the "Black Pork Cutlet" dish, which is a must-have. We ordered the "Special Black Pork & Black Beef Shabu-Shabu Course" and the "Special Black Pork & Black Beef Steamed Basket Course." Personally, I prefer the steamed basket because the meat fat drips onto the vegetables, making it delicious. But the pork bone ramen at the end of the shabu-shabu is also hard to resist. For those who are indecisive, I recommend ordering both to enjoy a variety. It was my first time eating here in a while, and it was delicious as always. Even the cheapest course is satisfyingly tasty. I love the sesame sauce with black pepper. The butterfly dish was also good.

In Nakasu, Fukuoka, there is a direct-operated store of JA Kagoshima Prefecture Economic Federation called Karensan. You can enjoy Kagoshima black beef, Kagoshima black pork, black Satsuma chicken, etc. in various styles such as shabu-shabu, steamed in a seiro, teppanyaki, etc. A colleague from Kagoshima told me that the steamed black pork at Karensan is delicious. The steamed black pork has a rich flavor and goes well with plenty of vegetables. The photo is of the black pork cutlet. My son, who was still hungry after shabu-shabu, ordered this additional dish. I have also had the pork cutlet for lunch, and despite being thick, it was tender and full of flavor. It was here at Karensan that I first discovered the deliciousness of Kagoshima black pork.

Great atmosphere and generous portions of black pork shabu-shabu! They also have a variety of shochu, including 3M, and you can enjoy Kagoshima's local alcohol. Perfect for business entertainment and other occasions.

The restaurant is located in a food building underground. The other two shops only open at night, so the corridor is dark. It seems difficult to have lunch there alone, but I found it convenient. I ordered the black pork steamed in a bamboo basket, and it was satisfying with a good portion. Despite being underground, there is only a service elevator at the back which can be confusing to find.

It is a style of steaming black pork and seasonal vegetables in a large steamer. It looks visually appealing with good volume and color. I took someone from the Kanto region this time and they were pleased, so I'm glad.

Kagoshima JA manages the restaurant and uses locally sourced pork and beef from Kagoshima. The steamed dishes look luxurious, healthy, and delicious.
