NERIMA: Good Munchies where burgers start at 500 yen! Thin patty but bun was nice. (SONY RX100M3)

Counter seating for about 6 and there is a table for 4 at the entrance.

Finally made it to Good Munchies in Nerima.  The plan was to get the bare minimum 500 yen burger with no topping, no sides and no drink but my hungry self went for the drink/french fries set +350 yen and toppings... avocado 180 and cheese 150 yen. 

Perfectly presented!  I went for the french fry wedges.

Little sis got the cheese burger with the thin french fries... you gotta go with the thin french fries for sure.  So crispy on the outside and chewy with great flavoring.

There seemed to be a mustard type sauce on the nice chewy bun...  The patty was unusually thin and there seemed to be no juiciness to it.  Avocado had a bit of greying...  It just wasn't something I would be craving even though I live a short bike ride away.

If you have a look at the dinner menu it will give you some hints on how toppings are combined.

Stamp card! If you go 15 times then a free standard burger for you!  The best part of the experience was the super attentive waiter... so friendly and all smiles.  I think its well worth it if you only got the standard 500 yen burger but with multiple toppings pushing the price over 1,000 yen then it just wasn't worth it to me.  The beef patty should have been thicker leading to more juiciness... too thin and too medium well for me.

HEIWADAI: Anrakutei Yakiniku for a super value alternative to McD's! 500 yen lunch set! (Sony RX100M3)

I don't frequent Anrakutei often because its more of an all you can eat type of Yakiniku BBQ spot rather than a set meal kinda place.

But their 500 yen lunch set sure is a great alternative to McDonald's.

Lunch is served until 5pm and around 3:30pm I had the entire section of the restaurant to myself.

Lunch menu with many sets! 

Some nice meat options... looks yum.

Gas grill.

But in one tiny corner thats hard to spot you will see their east expensive 500 yen lunch sets.  They have reduced the meat from 100 grams to 80 grams.  Went for the GyuButa (Beef Pork) double lunch! http://tokyobelly.blogspot.com/2013/04/kotakemukaihara-anraku-tei-500yen.html

Boom! 500 yen including tax... nice value that includes kimchee (or salad), seaweed soup, meat, rice and a aninidofu dessert with pineapple topping.

Not sure which is the beef and which was the pork... hmm.

Kimchee so tasty!

Tiny garlic packages.

Put a bit of garlic on my yakiniku.... added so much flavor. 

Overall it hit the spot and for 500 yen you really can't go wrong.  Remember that the meat is very unmemorable but if you add some garlic and sauces it can be quite tasty!
