Menu at “Sekai no Yamachan Thailand Main Branch” (Photos, Prices, Review)
I tried the weekday lunch set, the “Miso Tonkatsu Teishoku” for 250 THB. The miso pork cutlet was decent, but the shredded cabbage wasn’t very fresh. It came with pickles, soup, and green tea.
Other weekday lunch sets available included Chicken Nanban Teishoku, Moyashi Itame Teishoku, Moya Tama Teishoku, Fried Rice Set, Kimchi Fried Rice Set, Garlic Fried Rice Set, and Karaage Teishoku.
In addition to the lunch sets, there’s also a grand menu. I ordered the “Maboroshi no Tebasaki (Phantom Chicken Wings)” for 5 pieces at 139 THB. It felt essential to order this. This is it – the familiar phantom chicken wings. I hadn’t eaten them in Japan for a while and was reminded of their taste.
I also ordered the “Neo Yamachan Salad” for 210 THB, which was quite substantial and satisfying.
