あらいやオートコーナー

Established 50 years ago, the friendly and entertaining owner at Araiya Autokoonaa-san has over 70 years of experience in bento sales. Located along National Highway 51, this highly seasoned store features rare bento vending machines, retro table games, and meticulously crafted miniature models inside. Araiya Autokoonaa is filled with excitement and fun. Both the yakiniku and karaage bento are only ¥330 each! Simply insert a coin and a hot bento will appear! The pork is tender and slightly sweet, perfectly coated in sauce, with no hint of any unpleasant smell. The tsukudani kombu is delicious as well. Pouring the sauce over the rice makes for the ultimate meal. According to the amicable owner, another bento vending machine is currently being repaired. Let's look forward to the day when this endangered species of vending machine is resurrected at Araiya-san. It was a truly delicious meal. Thank you very much.

Although I had been curious about it, I had never had the opportunity to visit until the other day when I finally went. While the location information on the car navigation system made it easy to get close, I was unsure if I would easily find the exact spot upon arrival. However, there is a decent-sized convenience store nearby, so I think it would be easy to recover if needed (although I apologize to the convenience store...). Inside the restaurant, there were vending machines and various game machines, but none of them were operating (perhaps because it was relatively early). There was no option for a pork cutlet bento, only choices of grilled meat and fried chicken bento were available for purchase. Honestly, I had some reservations about eating there, so I decided to take the bento home. Both bentos were flavorful, satisfying, and had a nice texture. While I had wanted to try it at least once, I don't think I would go back there multiple times, unless it was convenient. Overall, I am glad I was able to try the bento I had been curious about.

At Retro Vending Machine, they have bento boxes like grilled meat and pork cutlet for only 330 yen each. Don't forget your disposable chopsticks! The food is delicious! Unfortunately, they do not accept 500 yen coins or 1000 yen bills. Only 100 yen coins, 50 yen coins, and 10 yen coins are accepted.

よくあるレトロ自販機コーナーと言うよりは、330円弁当自販機1台のみ作動している掘っ建て小屋である。他にも2台自販機ありますが、故障しているようです。 500円玉使用不可。 写真だと弁当の大きさがわかりづらいが、コンビニ弁当の小さい方と同じぐらいである。二郎系ラーメン普通に食える人なら3種類の弁当全て食えます。弁当は全て国産品で作っているとの記載あり。 外側にあるジュースの自販機は作動しています。 敷地内に車は2台程しか駐車できませんが、皆様裏側の道に路駐して買いに来てます。 小屋内の右側にはゲーム機が2台あるが、電源は入っていなかった。 左側にはメモ帳があり、数々のコメントが書かれている。 このような昭和的コーナーは少なくなってしまい、自販機も大切に扱ってほしいものです。 群馬県藤岡にある ななこし なんかもボロくて味わいあります。

330円という激安でなかなか美味しい素晴らしきレトロ自販機。 売り切れの場合どうなるんだろうという不安感半端ない。 焼肉弁当は豚肉の焼いたものと昆布佃煮とご飯。毎度思うけど味付けがすごくしっかりしている印象。 今回は唐揚げとカツも購入。唐揚げは流石にカラっとしたものは難しかったが、鶏自体がしっかりしっとりしていて悪くない。 また、この値段でちゃんとカツもぼちぼち入ってていい。こっちはややサクッとした歯ごたえが残っていた。 ちなみに小銭が切れたときに隣の自販機でジュースを買ったのだけれど、120円の激安コーラが価格的に超嬉しかったがまぁまぁおいしくない。 いろいろと面白さ全開の是非長く続いてほしい店。
