About this place
When a hearty lunch or dinner calls for something satisfying, freshly fried karaage bento is hard to beat. Situated in the Hightown Shiohama shopping arcade, Daichan Shiohamaten operates as a dedicated specialty shop serving a wide range of takeout boxed meals.
The signature karaage bento is built around 4 hefty pieces of Japanese fried chicken, delivering plenty of substance for diners craving a meat-centric lunch. Beyond the classic soy-sauce seasoning, the menu branches into distinct flavor options: a sweet chili version, a gently spiced chili bento that pairs naturally with steamed rice, and a hot variation tossed in a house sauce spiced with habanero pepper. Options to adjust the piece count or combine flavors give customers flexibility depending on their appetite.
Fried offerings extend well beyond standard chicken nuggets. The selection includes chicken wing bento rich in collagen and combination boxes featuring fried gyoza dumplings alongside karaage. Diners can also pick from fried white fish, deep-fried oysters, breaded prawns, tonkatsu, or an assorted mixed fry bento, while a dedicated children's meal accommodates younger eaters.
Along with cash, the shop accepts credit cards and contactless payments such as PayPay and Rakuten Pay. While there is no dine-in seating, advance orders and delivery options make it convenient to bring freshly prepared bento straight home.
