changed to 2:00 AM (last order 1:50 AM)
starting 2/10) Quickly finish washing dishes . Cleaning . Inventory check. Staff) Did the meat soba change to chicken
soba? Owner) The main reason is the meat soba's
cost ratio was just too high. Owner) Keeping a high-cost item on the
menu in today's climate … Owner) Having that item forces us to
raise prices on other items too. Owner) It's fine to offer meat soba, but
if we do , we have to make up the profit
elsewhere It leads to raising prices across the
board or other adjustments . The meat soba just wasn't profitable
enough . Staff)So you switched to chicken? Yeah. It's not just because chicken is cheaper. Of course
, we researched chicken soba too , looking
at other places But when we combined chicken soba with
tanuki toppings , the chicken tasted
incredibly delicious. Staff)It was delicious. I tried it too. This chicken isn't just boiled ; we marinate it in beer first Marinating in beer tenderizes
the chicken, so we soak it for over an hour, then simmer
it in our special broth. While chicken costs less than pork, we put
in the extra effort The main reason is that if we can create
one profitable item we can avoid raising
prices elsewhere Staff) But it was delicious . Owner) Thank
you . Staff)The yuzu really comes through. We could have just kept the meat soba as
is , but charging an extra 200 yen for it would make it feel a bit out of line with
our price range . It would make people
think, " Is there really a dish that
expensive ?" It uses domestic yuzu from Kochi
Prefecture. Soba with yuzu can be a matter of taste, but people who
like it really love it. Our rich broth and this yuzu, which is
light and refreshing, go really well
together. Chicken Soba (Regular) 630 yen Raw Egg 90

open? Owner: Exactly 10 years. Staff: In terms of Chinese cooking
experience ? Owner: 20 years. Owner: I opened the shop in my 11th year ,
so it's been 20 years total. This year is a milestone . I admired Marufuku Restaurant (a nearby
Chinese restaurant). Their chef's wok skills were so cool . I declared that when I was in elementary
school , and my parents just went with it, like "You
should become a Chinese restaurant owner."

, so maybe it suited me . I wonder if it's my
calling. He taps the knuckle he'd taken out . He warms the curry he'd prepared . He adds the chicken and pork broth to

and it was brutal . It's a scary profession if you get food
poisoning —it could end your career. But that training is why I'm here now, why I've been able to
reach so many people . It's all thanks to the master. I wouldn't go back, but I'm glad I did it. That training
period, I guess. Setting condiments on tables , bagging chopsticks restocking wet towels. Staff) Is the kitchen one-person
operation? Owner: Stir-frying the pot is incredibly tiring I'll have some tea! Owner: These kids have a ton of stuff to
do. They wash dishes, make dumplings, fry
things, and I make them handle the register too.

increased, taking deliveries would be
pretty tough. Next year, this kid is going to get a job
here . Owner: They're working really hard ! (Working) really hard. Staff) Will you be joining us next year? I'll be joining next year I'll work hard after graduating high
