The dishes here are usually delicious, and among them, the Henan cold noodles (mixed colors and Haneori original special sauce cold noodles) are considered the "pinnacle of chilled Chinese noodles" in my opinion. Luckily, they are usually available starting from around the Golden Week holiday in May, so I was thinking it was about time this year. I decided to go a little later than usual for lunch, but surprisingly there was a 5-minute wait in front of the register before entering. As soon as I was seated, I ordered the cold noodles for 1,100 yen. It arrived in about 5 minutes. I mixed in all the ingredients thoroughly. Mixing well to ensure the thinly sliced ingredients are evenly distributed before eating. The smooth noodles and the delicious special sauce that can be drunk alone are still amazing. So, this year, I have updated the position of the top chilled Chinese noodles once again.

At my current workplace, many women still use their maiden names, whether it's due to convenience of keeping the same email address or seal after getting married, I'm not sure. - There was a person at my previous job who changed their last name, so I almost said "Congratulations" but luckily found out they had actually gotten divorced. - The main character in the manga "Golgo 13" is Duke Togo, but I guess "Golgo" is just a code name. - The official menu name at this restaurant is #Kounan Cold Noodles, but both the staff and regular customers all seem to refer to it this way when ordering. - So today's lunch was at #Ungi #Aji no Chuka Ungi to try the #Cold Noodles that have been available since after Golden Week. It's been about 2 years since my last visit in 2021. - It arrived about 10 minutes after ordering. After admiring the ingredients and plenty of #soup and #noodles on the octagonal plate, I enjoyed the ritual of transferring them to another dish before eating. - The creamy soup with a slight acidity is a unique taste that is not often found in other restaurants, giving off an elegant impression similar to mayonnaise. - Eating this with crispy shrimp fritters, refreshing cucumber, and unique green peas is truly delightful. - I always order extra noodles because I want to savor it, and even after eating a lot, the flavor never gets old. - Come to think of it, I've been here a few times at night as well, but I've only ever ordered the cold noodles during lunch, so I want to come back before the end of the year to try a different menu item.

Daily half & half lunch for 1200 yen In the city, there are hidden gem restaurants located on the basement floor or on the second floor and above. (In my personal opinion), today's Hagi-san is also like that. Well, the entrance on the ground floor is quite noticeable, but downstairs opens up to a spacious dining area. What's more, there seems to be a separate area at the far back (probably a large private space with a round table). Today, I visited with a colleague from another branch, which is quite rare. According to my colleague, it's close to the office, delicious, and reasonably priced, so they often come here. With that introduction, you can comfortably venture underground. Now, the menu includes lunch sets A, B, C, and various à la carte dishes. I mentioned to the staff that there are so many choices, and they responded with a smile, "Having a wide menu is our specialty!" Their enthusiasm is quite appealing. After much deliberation, I decided on the daily half & half, sharing half of set A and half of set B. It comes with two main dishes, rice, soup, salad, and pickles. My colleague confidently said, "Hmm, today, I think I'll go with noodles." The mapo tofu is not too spicy, with a color that suggests it's easy to eat. It may not be authentic, but it's definitely not Japanese-style. The sweet and sour pork is delicious and tender, and I realized it was made with pork tenderloin. This is why it tastes so good. It's been a while since I had sweet and sour pork, but I'm completely satisfied. Now, let's take a look at the noodles next to me. They look delicious too. This adds more options to the Ginza lunch lineup. Bon appétit!

I visited the Ginza Hanei main store in the 7th block of Ginza for lunch. I've always been curious about this place, so I finally mustered up the courage to go. Their specialty, the C lunch set with fried chicken noodles, was delicious. It came with half a bowl of rice, salad, and pickled vegetables. The noodles were beautifully presented with a spicy sauce and topped with green onions. The soup was flavorful, and the fried chicken was crispy and tasty. The portion size was just right, and I left feeling satisfied. Overall, it was a great meal for 1200 yen. Highly recommended!

On a regular Thursday around 12:30, I visited Shiseido Parlour for the first time, located across from a magazine stand. It was almost full of office workers and bustling. I tried the summer limited edition ● Gangnam cold noodles for 1200 yen, as recommended in the magazine. The noodles arrived in about 10 minutes, served in an original sesame-flavored soup with toppings on a separate plate - two fried prawns, char siu, egg, cucumber, beans, and glass noodles. The cold soup was perfect for a hot day. It seemed like a unique style of chilled Chinese noodles with broth. Not many people around me ordered the Gangnam cold noodles; most opted for lunch sets, which were already sold out by this time. I was intrigued by some of the lunch sets, but I ended up buying a rolled sushi as a souvenir from the counter. I enjoyed it at home after heating it in the microwave. The rolled sushi was packed with ingredients like shiitake mushrooms, and I think it was worth the 750 yen. Thank you for the meal.

One day for lunch, I headed to a Chinese restaurant in Ginza to try the cold noodles that I had been curious about. The restaurant is called "Ajino Chuuka Hagoromo Ginza Honten" and is located in the basement of a building next to Hotel Musse Ginza Meitetsu in Ginza 7-chome. The restaurant has been in business for 54 years and the atmosphere inside is a mix of a Chinese restaurant and a Western-style eatery. The menu includes lunch sets A and B which change daily, and the signature C lunch set. In addition to dim sum, rice dishes, and noodles, there are also various other menu items available. I ordered the "Kounan Ryoumen" for 1200 yen, a cold noodle dish served with a special sesame-based sauce and various toppings such as shrimp tempura, char siu, egg, cucumber, and green peas. The noodles and toppings were served separately, with the noodles having a chewy texture and a flavorful sesame soup. The toppings were delicious and well-prepared, complementing the noodles perfectly. I also ordered the "Hagoromo Meibutsu C Lunch (Zha Ji Mian)" for 1200 yen, which included fried chicken with a spicy sauce, served with noodles, half a rice, salad, and pickles. The noodle soup had a refined chicken flavor with a soy sauce base, and the fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. The salad and pickles added a nice touch to the meal. To accompany my meal, I also tried the "Long Long Spring Roll" for 750 yen, a long and crispy spring roll filled with shrimp and vegetables. It was a tasty and satisfying appetizer. Overall, the dishes at this restaurant had a traditional Chinese flavor and were meticulously prepared. It was a refreshing change from the typical casual Chinese eateries I had been visiting lately.

Wearing a feather and eating Kanan Ryomen. It's basically cold Chinese noodles. You eat the noodles soaked in a sour soup with toppings. I always wonder why the noodles are called "harusame" even though they are noodles. It doesn't get in the way, though. This is the perfect dish for the hot season. #Ramen #RamenClub #Noodlestagram #ColdChineseNoodles #Ryomen #Kanan #Ginza #Feather

First of all, I was very impressed with the efficiency and thoughtfulness of the staff. The appearance of the Long Spring Rolls was questionable, but they were filled with plump shrimp and had a crispy texture despite being fried. I enjoyed being able to customize the seasoning to my liking for each dish. I look forward to trying other items on the menu. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

Ginza Tei was already full when I arrived, so I had to look for another restaurant nearby. I ended up at this Chinese restaurant and ordered the C lunch set for 1,200 yen. I waited for a while, but my beer never arrived so I canceled it. The portion size was okay, but the presentation of the food seemed like it was leftovers from the previous customer. The overall taste was average, and I left feeling unsatisfied with my lunch. Thank you for the meal.

I went to Hanagoromo to eat anago, but it was closed, so I decided to go to the restaurant I had been meaning to visit. When I descended the stairs to the basement, the chic interior made me realize that this was Ginza. The service was also very good. I was seated and ordered the famous "C Lunch" - deep-fried chicken and warm noodles. It arrived promptly. I took a sip of the soup first. The gentle chicken broth was delicious. It had a subtle saltiness that paired well with the thin noodles. The lightly seasoned deep-fried chicken was juicy and plentiful. When I tried putting the deep-fried chicken into the soup and eating it, it was a great combination. Pickled vegetables were also delicious, and you can't underestimate the skill of a long-established restaurant.

This weekend was a hot summer day. I visited the long-established Chinese restaurant "Uyui" in Ginza. I wanted to try their summer specialty dish, "Kanann Cold Noodles" (1,200 yen)! It's a type of cold noodles, where the noodles and toppings are served separately. The broth that the noodles are soaked in has a tangy vinegar flavor that is addictive. It has a creamy richness like mayonnaise, with a sesame soy sauce-like acidity. The toppings include shredded omelet, cucumber, char siu, glass noodles, and green peas. The taste hasn't changed in over 10 years. The unchanged taste is the reason why this dish has been a specialty here for over 50 years. It was a Saturday, so there were many office workers dining as well. The restaurant has plenty of seats, but it quickly filled up by noon. I heard many people ordering the "C Set" with fried chicken made from local chicken. Just imagining it makes my mouth water. Every year, when the weather gets hot, I think of this dish, but this time there was a bit of a gap. It's amazing how a taste that you can recognize after over 10 years is still so delicious! While waiting at a traffic light, I took a photo. Last year and the year before, I had to wear a mask even in the scorching heat. This year, we can finally enjoy summer without a mask.

I was thinking about having chilled Chinese noodles, but my mood did a 180 when I saw the menu and ended up ordering the five-ingredient yakisoba. It was served in a royal-looking dish with luxurious ingredients, but it turned out to be mostly cabbage and noodles. The shrimp on top kind of fooled me. But the taste was good. I'll save the chilled Chinese noodles for when it gets a bit hotter.

Having lunch at "Hagoromo" in Ginza 7-chome. The small entrance leads to a staircase heading underground, with each step down bringing a cool breeze and a delightful aroma that excites the senses. The restaurant is surprisingly spacious, with sturdy tables and chairs neatly arranged in a traditional Chinese cuisine setting. I used to frequent a chocolatier named "Brondel" nearby, where they would break large chunks of chocolate with a hammer to the desired size, a place I enjoyed visiting with Tanaka-kun. It reminds me of the nostalgic days in this neighborhood. The staircase leading underground is a bit steep, and Tanaka-kun, due to a previous fall on a rainy day, was slowly descending while holding onto the railing. I often ordered the "fried chicken noodle" lunch set, which came with chicken tempura, soup noodles, rice, and salad. It used to cost 1000 yen, then 1100 yen, and now it's 1200 yen. Still a great deal. The set arrived quickly, with the plates filled to the brim on the tray. The salad plate always slightly tilted, which I found charming as a sign of their service spirit. The soup noodles were topped with white leeks only, in a clear and refreshing soup base. The noodles had a satisfying texture, starting firm and gradually softening as they absorbed the soup. The chicken tempura was crispy with a sweet and spicy vinegar sauce, served on a bed of boiled Chinese cabbage. Placing the tempura on top of the noodles enhanced the flavors, as the oil and sauce mixed with the soup, creating a delicious combination. The rice portion was small, but it served as a palate cleanser between bites of noodles and tempura. The vegetable salad included crispy fried wontons and crunchy sliced lettuce, adding a nice contrast in textures. Each element of the meal was flavorful and enjoyable, making it a favorite dining spot for me.

Before lunchtime, just before 11:30, I tried stone-grilled ankake yakisoba for the first time. It was piping hot and had a nice crispy texture. The meal came with a salad before and mango pudding after, making it a great value course.

I went to Shinbashi for a health check-up, and after finishing the tests, I decided to have an early lunch. The restaurant I wanted to go to starts serving at 11:30, so I changed my plans and went to this place instead. Since it was just before opening, it was not crowded. I ordered a half-sized lunch, and the soup was delicious. I heard that the basis of Chinese cuisine is soup, and this restaurant, being an established one, certainly lives up to that reputation. A restaurant that serves delicious soup is bound to have other delicious dishes as well.

I visited the restaurant around 1:40 PM on Monday, and it was about 40% full. I was seated at a table right away. I was looking for a cold noodle dish and the staff recommended the Henan cold noodles, so I ordered that along with some pan-fried dumplings. The staff were very attentive and provided excellent service. The Henan cold noodles were served with the noodles and toppings separate, which was fun for arranging them on the plate. The soup was flavorful and enjoyable. The dumplings were not crispy but chewy, and the filling was delicious. The yakisoba and set menu options looked appetizing too, so I would like to come back again.

A Chinese restaurant located in the middle of Ginza and Shinbashi. The name of the restaurant was familiar, but I always felt intimidated by its upscale appearance. This day, after being turned away from another restaurant, I gathered the courage to go in. Going down the stairs to the basement, the interior was surprisingly spacious and had a calm atmosphere. The customers were of various ages, showing that it was popular among a wide range of people. I ordered the daily special stone-grilled delicious stewed rice bowl (I think it was 1100 yen). It arrived in about 5 minutes with a side salad, pickled vegetables, and soup. The sizzling hot stewed sauce on the stone bowl was appetizing. I realized I had plans to meet someone later, so I was worried if I could finish it quickly. The seasoning was well-balanced, and the cooking was skillful. The shrimp seemed to be added later after being fried, so the ingredients were not too tough or too soft. And most importantly, it was piping hot. I ate quickly and ended up burning the roof of my mouth. I wish I could have enjoyed it more leisurely. The staff was efficient and attentive. A recommended restaurant for when you want to enjoy a leisurely Chinese lunch.

I searched for a place to have lunch in Shinbashi and decided to try this downtown Chinese restaurant that had caught my eye before. The atmosphere inside was retro and had a deep sense of taste. The restaurant was crowded with madams and businessmen, and it seemed like only those who knew its goodness came to this underground restaurant on the first floor. The dishes were generous in portion and tasted great, so I added it to my list of places to revisit when I'm nearby.

I visited DX restaurant after watching it on TV as a newcomer. The reason for my failure was that I had eaten elsewhere before coming here. Well, my stomach was already full, so I only ordered a little bit of food. Since it is authentic Chinese cuisine, it takes a little time for the food to be served. If the conversation is lively, you won't even notice the wait, but for impatient people, the waiting time may be a bit much. When I saw the dishes that people around me were enjoying, I regretted eating somewhere else before coming here.

Ginza lunch. It's rare to see such a beautiful ramen. The clear soup, free of any off-flavors. Smooth, chewy noodles... Simple but victorious. You can tell it's a specialty. The best ramen, this is what's good, what's the best. Enjoying it with the set of oil-drizzled chicken and vegetables. Pure bliss. Lunch in Ginza is happiness.

A Chinese restaurant in Ginza. I visited for Saturday lunch and ordered the C lunch set with fried chicken and noodles. When I placed my order, they said it would take 20 minutes or more, but it actually came out in about 15 minutes. The flavors were consistent and not too strong. It feels like a family-friendly neighborhood Chinese restaurant that prioritizes stability over boldness. The fried chicken had a light coating and a good meaty texture, so I recommend it. Payment is cash only for lunch.
