博多の海鮮料理 喜水丸 博多一番街店 — Restaurant in Fukuoka

博多の海鮮料理 喜水丸（博多一番街店）の朝定食を食べに行きました。

多分、今、検索している人も明太子食べ放題の朝定食で調べていると思いますので、覚え書き残します。

朝7:30から開店ですが、整理券は多分7:00位から発券できると思います。今回は日曜日の7:10にお店に到着。待ちは10番（組）でした。

食べ終えた7:30の時点で待ちは15組でした。

博多駅、整理券を取ってからの待ち時間に座る場所がないためどこかで時間を潰すか、お店の前で待っていることになります。

博多駅近くのビジネスホテルに宿泊していれば、先ずは整理券を早い時間に取りに行くとよいと思います。

そして、朝定食ですがすべの定食に、明太子、味噌汁、辛子高菜、そしてご飯が食べ放題です。

ご飯の量は注文するタッチパネル上で、少な目、普通、大盛を選択できます。

また、お代わりもタッチパネルで行います。

周りを見ると男女関係なくご飯をお代わりしてる様子。遠慮なく、私もお代わりします。

今回の定食は焼きサバにしました。この焼きサバも1匹と、1/2サイズと選択できます。

この焼きサバも脂が乗っており、朝から幸せです。

次回も博多出張の際は、ホテルでの朝食ではなくここ、博多の海鮮料理 喜水丸でたべます。

Hakata Kaisenyaki Kisui Maru (Hakata Ichibangai Branch): A Breakfast Review

I went for the morning set meal at Hakata Kaisenyaki Kisui Maru (Hakata Ichibangai Branch). I imagine many of you searching right now are looking for the all-you-can-eat mentaiko breakfast set, so I wanted to share my notes.

The restaurant opens at 7:30 AM, but you can probably get a numbered ticket starting around 7:00 AM. This time, I arrived at 7:10 AM on a Sunday and was 10th in line. By 7:30 AM, when I finished eating, there were 15 groups waiting. Since there's nowhere to sit and wait near Hakata Station after getting your ticket, you'll either need to find somewhere to kill time or wait in front of the restaurant.

If you're staying at a business hotel near Hakata Station, it's a good idea to go get a numbered ticket early.

The All-You-Can-Eat Breakfast Set

For every breakfast set, you get all-you-can-eat mentaiko, miso soup, karashi takana (spicy mustard greens), and rice. When you order on the touch panel, you can choose your rice portion: small, regular, or large. You also order refills via the touch panel. Looking around, I saw both men and women getting rice refills, so I didn't hesitate to get a refill myself!

This time, I chose the grilled mackerel set. You can also choose between a whole fish or a half-size portion. The grilled mackerel was wonderfully fatty – a truly satisfying start to the day.

Next time I'm on a business trip to Hakata, I'll definitely be skipping the hotel breakfast and eating here at Hakata Kaisenyaki...

Not recommended

I ordered the Sashimi Teishoku and I was so surprised by the size and volume of Sashimi slices. LOOK AND COMPARE THEM WITH THE MENU PICTURE.

The service was bad too. Even I was waiting with my name registered in the ipad, no body noticed. After being waited for more than 10 mins one person noticed and apologized and let me in.

However they have unique point too. You can have rice, soup, mentaiko and takana for free no volume limited.

Since the quality of the food is good, it is really pity that they are cost cutting by cutting sashimi SO SMALL. And the price is still super expensive. I do recommend that you visit...

The first time we went there, it was about 9:30 but they stopped serving breakfast. The next day we arrive before 9:00 and successfully got a ticket for the breakfast. We waited for about 30 minutes. The Mentaiko, miso soup and rice are all unlimited. I personally found the Mentaiko bit too salty but good value for money.

The staff didn’t seem to be able to speak English. When they called out the numbers, it was all in Japanese. We had to use the google translate to understand how our number is pronounced...
