Meat lunch at a great price in Akihabara! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside "Delicious Meat Restaurant Yamano" Karaage Set Meal 980 yen!

When you come to Akihabara, you may have a hard time deciding where to have lunch.

To help you decide, here are some Akiba eats recommended by Shun Gori, who is a regular visitor to Akihabara even when he has nothing else to do.

As an Akibaite who likes to spend money on his hobbies, I assume that you can spend no more than 1,000 yen for lunch, so the amount you can spend this time is 1,000 yen or less.

After thinking about what to eat, I decided that Akibanites want to eat meat with gusto, so I paid a visit to "Yamano," a delicious meat restaurant.

Yamano is located across the street from Shosen Book Tower, about a minute's walk from the Showa-dori exit of Akihabara Station.



The restaurant has one table for three, one table for four, and one table for six people, and a counter with four seats for a total of 16 people.



The lunch menu includes "Don Gozen," "Yakiniku Lunch," "Steak Lunch," and "Set Meal," with a large portion of rice served for free.



Since my budget was less than 1,000 yen, I ordered the "karaage" set meal.

When I placed my order, the waiter replied, "It will take about 10 minutes to be served. It will probably be served freshly deep-fried. I knew I wanted to enjoy my fried food freshly fried and hot, so I agreed with the reply.



Here is the "karaage set meal" for 980 yen. The rice is a normal serving.
The main dish consists of five pieces of fried chicken. The 980 yen set meal, which includes a salad, pickles, and miso soup, is probably very cost-effective for an Akihabara lunch.



The karaage is of course freshly fried and hot, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The juices overflow when you bite into it, and it is the embodiment of what fried chicken should be like.
The chicken meat also has a firm and elastic texture, as if the restaurant claims to be a "restaurant with delicious meat," and it seems to be made from the best meat.



It is well seasoned, so you can eat it as it is, but it is even better with mayonnaise or salt and pepper on a small plate.



The salad and miso soup are also included, so the meal is well-balanced.




Next time, I would like to try the "Harami-don Gozen," which costs only 1,000 yen.
If you are wondering what to have for lunch in Akihabara, why not try this place? The lunch time closes when all the rice is gone, so be sure to get there early!
