Kinokaori — Restaurant in Tottori

I never actually got to try it. They were open in the morning on August 11, 2022 (a national holiday), and their hours said they’d be open until 7 pm. I arrived at 5:40. The door said 営業中 (open for business), so I opened it and sat down. A man (the owner?) grunted something twice to someone in back. Eventually a woman comes out (his wife?) and says “Oh, we’re already closed for the day!” “Despite the door being open and the sign on it?” “Sorry! Please come back!” (All of this conversation was in Japanese).

There is no chance I will be back. If they can’t maintain their hours or simply CLOSE THE DOOR AND CHANGE THE SIGN when they’re not open, they aren’t worth my time. And if the man sitting there was the owner, his rudeness doesn’t deserve patronage...

A bit unusual medicinal curry, but with a great and rounded taste. Well complemented by the rice, that soaks the sauce up well. It makes for a hot and comforting combination. The curries come with a salad that consists of raw and boiled vegetables with a sesame dressing. The salad seems to change daily and I might have caught a less lucky day, but was still happy about a vegetable side. The place is popular and gets crowded during lunch time on a weekday, but there were still enough table and counter seats even if a bit cramped and service is still surprisingly quick. The shop is part of the shopping street that is covered against rain and heat, so it's convenient in...

Mindblowingly tasty. Was looking for a place near the station and found this place highly rated on tabelog. Warm little cafe that is so friendly to foreigners (they do have english menu), but most importantly the curry is unique and addictive. Apparently it has some health benefits too?

Had hamburg don and came back a 2nd time for croquette don. Super fresh...
