Dining bar SHOKUDO PLUG is located a 3-5 minute walk from Nakazakicho Station. It is a popular spot with an open and warm atmosphere, perfect for the sunny season. It gets so busy on weekends that there are often lines out the door. They offer a wide selection of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, making it a great place to enjoy a light drink even during the day. This time, I ordered the popular PLUG'S hamburger plate. The hamburger is long and impressive with thickly sliced tomatoes and layers of folded lettuce. It's too big to take a bite in one go, but when you try to fit it all in your mouth, the flavors of the buns, patty, cheese, vegetables, and sauce all come together beautifully. It was delicious! The plate also comes with potatoes and ketchup and mustard, which is a nice touch, making it a satisfying set menu until the very end. I highly recommend visiting this place. Thank you for the meal!

After finishing my meal, I went for a leisurely walk and stumbled upon this shop. I had lemonade and cake! They had a terrace seat as well, making it versatile for different purposes. This time I used it as a cafe, but I definitely want to try their lunch next time!

I made a reservation for a visit. The restaurant was fully booked on a Friday night. I was there for the rice carbonara, but the shrimp was delicious. The rice carbonara was not as rich as it looked, with a nice flavor of cheese and cream. Personally, I found it a bit lacking in flavor. The atmosphere and service in the restaurant were good.

I had been curious about this cozy cafe in a back alley of Nakazaki-cho, and after seeing it featured on TV, I decided to visit. The food was delicious and the staff's service was excellent, so I will definitely be coming back! Some recommended dishes are the Rice Carbonara, Tanba Chicken Roast, and PULG's Cobb Salad.

I had cake earlier and for lunch today! It was delicious!! I wanted to try both lunch options, so I shared, but both were tasty. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, and we were able to get in without waiting too long, so I would like to go back again.

Carbonara rice seems to be popular among young girls, and I was curious about it too, but I was worried that my stomach couldn't handle it and I might get tired of it halfway through, so I ordered Poke rice instead. It was my first time trying Poke rice, so I couldn't imagine the taste, but it was delicious with an easy-to-eat seasoning. The seafood included salmon, octopus, and another type that I can't remember. My friend had the carbonara rice, and I took a bite, but I'm glad I didn't order it because it looked great but was actually quite heavy and the taste was lighter than expected. My friend also struggled towards the end, haha.

When I went to Osaka after a long time, I visited this restaurant that I had been curious about. I had the rice carbonara for lunch, along with homemade lemonade. The rice carbonara is a dish that represents carbonara using rice. The rice was mixed with egg and topped with carbonara sauce and cheese, with an egg on top. The taste was as I had imagined from the appearance, and the quality was even better than expected, very delicious. The interior of the restaurant was stylish, fitting for the Nakazakicho area. I went just before lunchtime on a weekday, and there were already about 6 groups waiting in line. I imagine it gets crowded on weekends, but with this deliciousness, I felt it was worth it.

This cafe in the bustling Nakazakicho area is always busy with customers. It has a casual and stylish atmosphere, and the lunch menu seems to be quite popular. I ordered their famous rice carbonara and a hearty dish with chicken on top of rice (forgot the name). The portions are generous, perfect for those who want to eat a lot. The flavors are bold and a bit junky, but delicious. A great spot for a satisfying meal!

A must-visit shop for cheese lovers. The specialty Rice Carbonara has a strong Parmesan cheese flavor. It is rich, creamy, and so delicious that you'll want to keep it all to yourself. The portion of rice is actually quite large, so it might be tough to finish if you have a small appetite. The Chicken Over Rice is spicy, and when shared with the Rice Carbonara, it offers a completely different taste which is just right.

I tried the Rice Carbonara that caught my attention! The taste is delicious, but the portion is simply too much! It fills you up with rice, so I honestly recommend sharing it! They have a variety of other menu options, and it got packed within about 30 minutes, so next time I'll try a different menu.

I didn't plan to visit this restaurant, but since I was nearby, I decided to go. It was around 12:20 pm on a weekday, with 2 customers already seated and 7 more arriving later. I ordered the Carbonara Rice (1,100 yen) from the menu I had checked beforehand. Shortly after ordering, I was served a crispy salad with French dressing and a simple soup with beaten egg whites. The main dish arrived in about 7-8 minutes, and it was quite impressive to look at. The Turmeric rice was covered with a generous amount of white Carbonara sauce, topped with a bright orange egg yolk in the center. The Carbonara sauce was rich in cheese flavor and aroma, with a hint of spiciness from dried parsley and coarse black pepper. Crushing the egg yolk added a creamy texture and intensified the rich taste. Although the portion of Turmeric rice wasn't large, the overall flavor was so intense that even the normal serving felt quite filling. It was a delicious meal.

In Osaka, there is a restaurant in Umeda that is themed after a New York diner called "食堂PLUG". One of their signature dishes is the Rice Carbonara, which is a unique take on carbonara using rice instead of noodles. The cheese is rich but not too heavy, and the portion size is not too big, making it easy to eat and delicious. They use "dragon eggs" in the dish, which makes it creamy and smooth when mixed in. I also want to try their Chicken Over Rice and Tacos next time I visit.

I went to the NY-style all-day dining "Shokudo PLUG" ☺️ This time, I tried the popular street food from NY food trucks and food stalls, "Chicken Over Rice"! The chicken was super tender and had a spicy seasoning that was delicious. The red sauce was slightly spicy and really whetted my appetite. The rice was saffron rice. It was a lunch plate with a generous portion! I was very satisfied. If you're interested, definitely give it a try! ☺️⏩ Chicken Over Rice ¥1,100 *Lunch and cafe times are non-smoking establishments.

【Cafeteria PLUG】Osaka @plug_nakazaki A shop located about a 5-minute walk from Nakazakicho Station on the Tanimachi Line! A perfect-looking masterpiece! Its name is Rice Carbonara! As the name suggests, Carbonara is made with rice instead of pasta! Once you crack the egg, the irresistible smell fills the air haha (Menu eaten) ▪️Rice Carbonara ¥1,100 (Store details) Cafeteria PLUG 050-5872-5918 1-8-3 Suehirogari Bldg. 1F, Nakazaki Nishi, Kita-ku, Osaka City https://tabelog.com/osaka/A2701/A270101/27087169/ #Osaka gourmet #Osaka lunch #Osaka dinner #Osaka gourmet tour #Cafeteria PLUG #Rice Carbonara #Carbonara #Carbonara recipe #

I found a stylish restaurant with a terrace where all the menu items looked delicious. After much deliberation, I ordered the daily special spicy curry. It had just the right amount of heat and came with soup and salad, making it a satisfying meal!

Poke Rice ¥1,200 Cafe Latte (drink set) ¥300 Salty American Blueberry Pie ¥650 (apparently they couldn't import cherries, so it was blueberry instead) The seasoning of the dishes was really strong, and the Poke Rice had well-seasoned seafood along with a great balance of rice and salad to eat with. The Blueberry Pie was also delicious. It had large salt crystals on top, adding an accent to the sweet and sourness of the blueberries. My friend's Apple Pie looked delicious too, so I'll try that next time.

The rumored Rice Carbonara is truly a sinful taste. In short, it's delicious. The restaurant is also stylish. However, there is one fatal flaw. If you're a guy dining alone, you'll stick out like a sore thumb among all the groups of girls or couples! Haha!

I visited for a lunch and day drinking. I was impressed by the fact that they had Kahlua milk on their drink menu. Many places don't offer it at night, so I was very happy to be able to drink Kahlua during the day. (I am a Kahlua milk enthusiast) It was a happy moment for me to enjoy my favorite drink and delicious food. I had been curious about the carbonara rice for a while, so I was glad to finally try it. It was a bit disappointing that I couldn't smoke at my table during lunch, but I heard you can smoke at night, so I would like to visit again to experience a different atmosphere.

I went before 2 o'clock on a holiday and there were several groups waiting outside. It was packed inside, so I decided to eat on the terrace. It would be more pleasant outside once it warms up a bit. I ordered the Chicken Over Rice for 1100 yen and a set drink of Premium Malt for 300 yen. Even though it's a set drink, the portion is generous. The chicken is boiled and then grilled, making it tender with a spicy seasoning that is delicious (a bit spicy). The rice is saffron rice. They were asking customers who came after 2 o'clock if they wanted lunch or just to use the cafe, so it seems like you can still have lunch even after 2 o'clock.

At 2:00 pm on a regular day, there was no line but the restaurant was quite lively! I sat at the counter seat. The rice carbonara for 1100 yen was rich...! It wasn't that big, but it was enough to make me full. The egg was so rich that it was almost bright red. I might like it more than carbonara, haha. The pudding and tiramisu were sold out, so I had the cheesecake. The seasonal tart was actually made with strawberries. The cheesecake had a refreshing taste and was delicious. The staff at the restaurant were kind and wonderful. I would like to go back to try the pudding again.

I saw Carbonara Rice on Instagram and wanted to try it. I happened to come across it on my way to the next cafe, so I decided to go in. My friend had just eaten two hamburgers in a row, haha. The Carbonara Rice was also rich and filling.
