Chuka Dining Iida

For a filling lunch, consider a bowl of twice-cooked pork or mapo tofu. Diners have commented that the rice portions are generous, and that the miso-based sauce, pork and vegetables in the twice-cooked pork bowl go well with rice. Some say the mapo tofu bowl is gently spiced and makes a satisfying meal.

Several diners have mentioned the contrast between crisp lettuce and the fragrant rice in the lettuce fried rice. The menu also includes gomoku fried rice, made with a variety of ingredients, and takana fried rice with pickled mustard greens.

For noodles with gyoza, there is a tan-men and gyoza set, as well as a ramen set with half a portion of fried rice. Diners who chose the tan-men have noted its generous serving of vegetables and mild-tasting broth; one review also praised the gyoza’s chewy wrappers. Gyoza can be ordered on its own, with varieties including perilla-leaf and cheese, or as an assortment of three—an easy way to add a side dish.
