What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A legendary neighborhood Chinese restaurant in Nara's oldest shopping arcade, Tsubai Ichiba, operating for over 50 years. Locals pack in for lunch daily in this Showa-era market atmosphere. Miso wonton noodles, fried rice, and gyoza are all affordable and delicious. Remarkably rated 4.65 on Yahoo Maps.

Locals call it a legend of Nara's town Chinese cuisine. Over 40 years in business for good reason. Perfectly executed fried rice, simple yet satisfying ramen broth. The elderly owner still works the wok at 80.
