A neighborhood eatery serving Japanese-style Chinese cuisine run by an elderly couple. Visited this place by walking from the nearby Showa Memorial park. There are lunch sets for 800JPY, but I opted for the stir fried vegetables and rice set (with soup and pickles, not pictured) for 750 JPY. Nothing special - it was a simple soy-sauce fry-up, not exactly flavorsome or having wok hei, and and certain bits of the vegetables were not fresh. However, the portion of fiber was generous - and the nice lady gave me an orange at the end too. The place is also quite smoky too - from the wok activity and close quarters - so do be prepared to have it in your clothes. No English is spoken or written here (as with anything that's not touristy!) - but if you can read/speak basic Japanese, or Google Translate - you'll do fine - and have a nice authentic experience in a quiet suburban neighborhood! Edit: Just found out that this place is pretty close to the American village - so give that a visit? Didn’t see any US personnel though.

A small Chinese restaurant inside a housing complex. Parking for 1 car next to the shop. It didn't feel clean; the lid of the wet wipes on the table was so dirty I couldn't touch it. But the older lady chats with you in a friendly way, so it doesn't feel unpleasant. Ramen 600 yen, fried rice 600 yen, kids' ramen 350 yen, lunch set 750 yen—cheap. The ramen was just okay. The fried rice was pretty bad, I'd say… the flavor was on the light side with some spots strongly seasoned and some not seasoned at all, and the egg was in clumps and slightly burnt. There was hardly any kamaboko or chashu in it.

Apparently they're currently closed on Mondays and Fridays Perhaps the husband has passed away, as the proprietress runs it, and the menu has only a few items It's become a hangout for the neighbors and smoking is allowed　please be careful

A local Chinese diner (machi-chuka) deep inside the Oyama housing complex. Run by a married couple. About 5 counter seats and 2 tables on a raised tatami area. I was coming back from a day camp and felt a little peckish, so I ordered wonton and a half fried rice. The half fried rice had plenty of egg, and the diced naruto was nicely browned and fragrant, which I felt added a surprisingly good flavor. The wonton soup was quite lightly seasoned, so even drinking it all you barely feel guilty lol. The wontons were the type with little filling. The amount was just right for me, but if you're a big eater, you probably don't need to go with half-size fried rice. I went with luggage loaded on my bicycle and wearing a backpack, so the wife asked me, "Are you on a bicycle trip?" When I answered that I wasn't going that far…, she said warmly, "How nice, it's full of dreams." The husband also came out of the kitchen and poured me a refill of cold barley tea, and seeing this kind couple put me at ease. I'd like to go again to try other dishes.

The fried rice and ginger pork were delicious. The portions are generous too, great value for money. Those who care about hygiene might want to be careful... Maybe a lunch service? They gave me an iced coffee.
