I am usually looking for a really great beef stew, in where the meat is tender as butter, melts in your mouth, and it is abundant too. Very rare here in Japan, where in " beef stew" you find mostly potetoes instead of meat, especially in family restaurants... Well this restaurant is famous for it's pork chop, but have beef stew too in menu, but beef stew is not always available, especially not when you make a long drive from Sapporo to Muroran, hungry longing in your mind for a perfect beef stew, but had to make a compromise with myself and had a pork chop. That was impressive...two large slice of pork with demigras souce. Best with fried rice with prawn. Next week I called them from Sapporo, and ordered the beef stew. They made it. It was abundant, lot of big cubes of beef, but...it wasn't that awesomely tender, it didn't melted in my mouth. Taste it was OK...but was missing something, some spice. After that meal had to use heavily lots of toothpicks. After a good beef stew, toothpicks are literally unnecessary. Next time I probably choose the pork chop. It's not a coincidence, why pork chop is famous there...

As a local, they never disappoint you! Always one of the best steak restaurant in the area. Worth trying :)

Local restaurant specializing in Muroran pork dishes. Ordered the 250 gram pork chop with the demi glace sauce. It was good.

I visited for the first time in several decades, since my student days. I was relieved that the pork chap, which used to be a popular menu item, was still just as delicious after all that time. The slightly sweet sauce and generous portion of pork were truly satisfying. It's a pricey dish for everyday eating, but nice as an occasional treat.

【260324】 Muroran pork chap 250g with rice（2,190円） For today's lunch, off to “Restaurant Nonchalant” on a customer's recommendation❗️ A stylish Nordic exterior. The interior has atmosphere and character too. And above all, both the kitchen and dining area are spacious. Without further discussion, I ordered the dish above. After waiting 15 minutes, it arrived❗️ An original pork chap made with fresh pork slowly roasted in the oven and generously covered in demiglace sauce that takes 1 month to prepare. The demiglace sauce is quite tangy, tasting like half ketchup and half demiglace, and the portion is very generous. Wow, it had been a while since I'd had such delicious Western-style food. I wish there were a place like this in Tokyo~. Thank you for the meal‼️
