🍜 Chinese Cuisine Budai Main Store中国料理 布袋 本店

The main store in Sapporo features multiple brand chain stores. It is well-known for its fried chicken dish "Zangi," which is highly praised alongside popular Chinese cuisine. Zangi is similar to fried chicken nuggets, characterized by marinating the chicken in a sweet and salty soy sauce before frying. The restaurant uses three different temperatures of oil for frying, and each Zangi is handmade. First, the chicken is fried in medium-temperature oil to seal in the juices. Then, it is slowly cooked in low-temperature oil, and before it is fully cooked, the chicken is removed and left to rest for over five minutes to allow the residual heat to distribute evenly. Finally, it is quickly fried in high-temperature oil to crisp up the outer layer. The finished chicken nuggets have a crunchy exterior and tender, juicy chicken inside, attracting many customers from Hokkaido and beyond to taste this delicious dish. Another signature dish is "Mapo Noodles," which features Mapo Tofu poured over soy sauce ramen with a smaller amount of broth. Originally a staff meal, it was later added to the menu due to the surprisingly delicious combination of Chinese noodles and Mapo Tofu.
