Beaten raw egg is usually used as the ideal sauce for sukiyaki.

やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI チキン南蛮定食 Fried Chicken with Tartar Sauce Teishoku

A few years ago (In 2016), tartar sauce was always served on the side with your meal. You could mix some of the ingredients yourself, leaving it smooth and creamy,
or adding things like chopped radish pickles, making it chewy and a bit salty. It was a good system.
But now unfortunately, they only serve smooth tartar sauce directly on top of the chicken. I really miss the old way of serving tartar sauce.

Anyway, this chicken dish still tastes scrumptious. 😋

What is chicken namban?
Please look over another blog about it.

Tips

やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI

One of YAYOIKEN's specialties

They use really tasty 100% Japanese-grown rice, and they offer free refills!

If you order a standard set meal 定食 Teishoku, you can get a free refill for yourself from the prepared rice table.

To be honest, their rice is delicious!
Common restaurants usually use cheap and low quality rice when they offer free refills.
When I have their set meal, I'm always full and satisfied after eating some rice.

Unfortunately, when you order the other rice foods below, the free refills of rice is not applicable.

  • Bowl type items 丼
  • Kids' menu お子様メニュー
Rice Serving Robot Machine おかわりロボ - やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI

In September of 2020, they changed the rice refill system from preparing the rice jar to a rice serving machine in the photo above.

  1. Put your rice cup on the tray.
  2. Push the rice size button.
  3. Do not touch the cup during serving the rice.
  4. ※音が鳴り終わるまで、茶碗を動かさないでください
    You can take it after a beep sound stops.

You can get free refills of pickles, hot tea and iced water yourself.

First, push ロック解除 Unlock button.
Next, push 給湯 Supply button.

だし Dashi Broth やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI

You can also get free refills of Japanese dashi broth from a pod on the left in the picture above. The tap on the right is cold water. Help yourself.

だし Dashi Broth やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI

It would be a good idea to simply drink the dashi broth with nothing, like warm soup. It is very light taste, but it has good Umami taste.

だし Dashi Broth やよい軒 JAPANESE TEISHOKU RESTAURANT YAYOI

Japanese people often eat rice soaked in the dashi broth or Japanese tea like a porridge of rice with pickles and so on.
