Hello, good evening. This is My Delicious Food GO. On the last day in Hakata, I decided to have motsunabe (tripe hotpot) for my final meal. I found a place while wandering around with the mentality of "motsunabe it is!" I had motsunabe, which was delicious with a soy sauce base. It was a bit disappointing that the only option for the finishing touch was ramen. They could also make it risotto-style, but as a hardcore Japanese food lover, I decided to skip the risotto. I wonder which country's cuisine risotto originally belongs to. Maybe England? Today, thinking about risotto, I want to leave Fukuoka. The restaurant had limited seating, but the staff were friendly and the food was delicious. Goodbye Fukuoka.

I went to eat curry with motsu (offal) and it was seriously delicious. The staff said they have free toppings available. I heard that and ordered cheese, mentaiko mayo, and coriander. They heated it up on an IH heater for motsu nabe and made a creamy cheese curry‼️ I ended up eating too much. The staff was kind too. I'm thinking of going again next time.

First experience trying motsunabe in Hakata. I was surprised by the complete lack of any unpleasant odor! The meat was so juicy and delicious, I could eat as much as I wanted. The champon noodles at the end were excellent, soaking up the delicious soup. I was truly impressed. This time I had a soy sauce flavored hot pot, so next time I want to try the miso flavor.

I had motsunabe, braised pork, and mentaiko. The motsunabe had chewy hormone that was very delicious. The braised pork was a bit too sweet for my liking, but the meat was tender. The mentaiko had gold flakes on top and tasted delicious. However, the staff seemed a bit disorganized and slow, which caused some tension among customers waiting in line. Despite the tasty food, I felt it was a shame due to the service issues.

Popular motsunabe (offal hot pot) restaurant in Hakata. Located inside Hakata Station building, so it's easy to access. The interior is compact and crowded, but the turnover is good so we didn't have to wait long to be seated. Ordered the popular motsunabe. The portion of leeks seemed slightly smaller than the main store, but it was consistently delicious and the plate emptied quickly. A perfect place to enjoy motsunabe quickly in front of the station.

Having a light drink with motsu oden. KITTE "Motsu Sakaba Rakutenchi" I went to "Motsu Sakaba Rakutenchi" located in KITTE Hakata for some motsu oden. It's nice that they offer more than just motsu nabe, you can also enjoy some light snacks. The oden and drink set is only 1100 yen! So, I had a draft beer... The restaurant is close to the entrance of the building, so there is a lot of foot traffic and no wall for the restaurant, which can be a bit distracting... but you get used to it quickly. The oden came with 5 items per person and the motsu nabe pot. The motsu is nicely skewered. It looks like it's placed on top, but it's actually inside. Overall, it was a nice place for a casual drink. ● Restaurant Information Motsu Sakaba Rakutenchi 050-5872-8688 9-1 Hakata Ekimae, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City KITTE Hakata B1F

(November 2022) Hakata Station in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture is crowded. I like regular Rakutenchi so I decided to go in. The hormone (intestine) skewers... Once you try it, you'll understand why it's not normally found in oden... It might be worth trying it just once... Well, it's a convenient location so I might use it? But there's a nice Rakutenchi in Yodobashi right nearby...

A friend from out of town suddenly came to Fukuoka, so we were looking for a place where we could eat motsunabe. We couldn't get a reservation on the same day, so we ended up going to a famous restaurant in a building next to Hakata Station. The restaurant had an open layout similar to a food court, which made it hard to have a calm meal, but the food was delicious as expected from a renowned restaurant. Despite the staff being busy and the atmosphere feeling more like an izakaya, it was a good place to casually drop by for a meal. My friend enjoyed the experience as well.

Near Hakata Station, I was looking to satisfy my hunger, but it was past lunchtime so I decided to try something different and chose motsunabe (tripe hot pot). It had been a while since I had been to Rakutenchi, and although all motsunabe places are delicious, Rakutenchi is the best! They serve plenty of vegetables and a moderate amount of tripe, which is not particularly chewy but has a cheap and Fukuoka-like appeal that I enjoy. The interior of the restaurant is small and has a cheap feel to it, with a cheesy drama playing on TV that seems to be about the founder's story (I think). Overall, the food was consistently delicious. I also enjoyed the champon as a finishing dish. Thank you for the meal!

I had a hectic schedule when I arrived in Hakata, but I asked to at least let me enjoy my meal slowly. And what better way to do that than with a hot pot! While walking around KITTE, I came across a place called Motsu Sakaba, which made me happy just by its name. I ordered the must-have motsu nabe (offal hot pot), oden with 5 varieties, and sumotsu. The sumotsu had a satisfying crunchy texture, the motsu was irresistible, and the oden was delicious with a light broth. Finally, the motsu nabe arrived, filled with plenty of leeks that I love. Imagining the tender and moist texture of the ingredients made my mouth water. The vegetables soaked in the broth were also incredibly tasty. Adding champon noodles to the hot pot was a brilliant touch, and it felt like a perfect way to savor Fukuoka. It was a short visit, but it felt like a dream come true. The meal was so delicious, and I left feeling completely satisfied.

On the second day in Hakata. After eating Mizutaki, the next thing to try is motsunabe, right? So, I went to a reasonably priced motsunabe restaurant near Hakata Station that a friend recommended. The restaurant has a very open layout from the outside. However, the taste and cost performance are quite good. I even bought a motsunabe kit that I can make at home (laughs).

I used it during my trip to Fukuoka. On a Sunday for lunch, the famous Hakata Ramen shop in the same facility had a long line, so I ended up at this restaurant. I thought the motsunabe (offal hot pot) from lunch was not bad. If you sign up for Rakuten's membership, you can receive the special spice from this restaurant as a souvenir, which is quite handy as it has various uses.

In the midst of the pandemic, Rakutenji has opened three new stores in March, showing a challenger spirit. They are working hard on sales, with flyers being delivered to homes. The new stores feature the classic motsunabe, as well as motsu curry and motsu oden as specialties. The motsu oden has a light broth, leaving a slight odor. At 260 yen per stick, it is quite expensive. As for their curry... the large pieces of motsu didn't seem to go well with it, haha. If you bring the flyer, you can get the curry at half price. At 440 yen, it's a good deal, but 880 yen is expensive.

I visited KITTE Hakata underground to see what it was like. There is a motsunabe restaurant and a hormone shop in KITTE underground, so I was curious about what kind of menu they offer. The menu includes the famous motsunabe, as well as motsu oden, motsu curry, and other Fukuoka specialties. I ordered vinegar motsu for ¥280, oden daikon for ¥180, shirataki for ¥180, Hakata buri motsu skewer for ¥260, and beef Achilles for ¥280. The portions were small and there were many items sold out. The oden was cooked in the motsunabe broth. The vinegar motsu was spicy with lots of chili peppers, which was unexpected. The beef motsu was cheap, but there weren't many options for side dishes, so I only had one Highball. It was a bit disappointing. Thank you for the meal.

I visited the new Rakutenchi at the underground of Hakata KITTE, which I was curious about. I really like the motsunabe here because it is cheap and delicious, but how about this place? Some of the dishes that were particularly delicious were: - Hakata buri motsu skewer 260 yen (a bit expensive) - Super carbonated Lemon Sour from a specialty izakaya 380 yen It seems like you can also eat motsunabe here, so it's good for tourists! I am a bit concerned about the curry. Overall, the prices seem a bit... high to me... (；ω；) The store is quite open and located near the entrance of the building, so I am a bit conscious of the people around laughing It's not bad, but...

This time, we visited Motsu Sakaba Rakutenchi KITTE Hakata store located at 9-1 Hakata Ekimae, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City. This place opened on March 31st. The interior is designed like a food stall with lots of flowers and souvenirs for sale. They offer a variety of dishes like motsu oden, curry, karaage, motsu nabe, and other side dishes. We started with a toast of premium malt beer and ordered motsu oden including Hakata-style motsu skewers, Hakata simmered egg, and konjac. The motsu was chewy and delicious, and the simmered egg was flavorful. We also enjoyed a Jim Beam highball after the beer. It was a great experience, and we will definitely visit again when we have the chance. Thank you for the delicious meal!

Ordered the Motsu-Nabe King Curry (990 yen), Hakata Soy Sauce Karaage (730 yen), and Fukuya Squid Mentaiko (440 yen).

I used this restaurant when I went on a live performance trip. It was Monday afternoon, but it was crowded with many fans because there were live performances on the weekend. At first, the staff was handling everything alone, but the food was served quickly and I was very satisfied. If I have the opportunity to go to Fukuoka again, I will definitely use this restaurant again.
