Markanville
It is said that it used to be the center of Hanamaki.
Marukan Building was built at that time.
Currently, it is severely deteriorated, and only the store on the 1st floor and the large dining room on the 6th floor are open.
Although it was closed once, it seems that another company took over the management and reopened due to the strong demand of the citizens.
For citizens, “Marukan Shokudo is a place of memories for all generations, from children to the elderly.”
Inside the store
There are 500 seats in the store. Sit wherever you like, then give the ticket to the waiter.
Chopstick holders with Showa atmosphere. This is also a specialty of Marukan Shokudo. Key chains and T-shirts were also sold on the first floor of the building.
Menu
The menu here has a wide variety of Western and Japanese dishes. I think the price is relatively reasonable.
The most popular meal menu!
The most popular meal menu “Napoli cutlet”
Tonkatsu is on top of Neapolitan. Napolitan was also delicious with a rich sauce, and I was very satisfied with the volume.
【Specialty】10-step soft serve ice cream
It is a famous 10-tier soft serve ice cream. It’s not that I put out too much cream by mistake, it’s unbalanced from the point of the menu table (laughs)
The price has gone up a bit since then, but it’s still very reasonable.
And the specialty of the Marukan Building Daishokudo, the 10-tier soft serve.
The standard way to eat it is with chopsticks, as it will fall apart if you hold it in your hand.
The inside is hollow, and I think it takes a lot of skill to stack up to this point. It looked like a white rose when I looked into the inside of the soft cream.
By the time I finished eating, my body temperature had dropped and it was cold (laughs)
