●Name Menya Hisashi ●Access 3-3-9 Nihonbashi Kayabacho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 🚗Use nearby parking ●Points Actually, this was my first time trying ramen that is said to be Jiro-style😅 The noodles are from Kaikaro in Asakusa The flavor is concentrated with dark soy sauce The photo shows the bean sprouts and normal garlic I only ordered the extra-large portion, but I'm not sure I could eat it all... There are about 10 seats at the counter, The noodles are thick so they take a while to boil, but I think the turnover rate is fast In conclusion, it was delicious😊 The char siu was especially delicious I'd like to come back when I want to eat something hearty or get energized #Tokyo #Gourmet #Ramen

I visited Brothers, a hamburger shop near Ningyocho Station. I love hamburgers and have tried many different places, but this is the best so far. The patty is full of meat juice, and the texture and flavor are excellent. In addition, balance is key in a hamburger, and this one is wonderfully well-made with every part being just as good as the meat. #cafehopping #triplucky2022 #gourmettrip

#Tokyo Food Guide A bowl of the seafood donburi, which was once the best in Tokyo, costs less than NT$300. If you eat one-third of it, you can get more rice for free to make sea bream soup rice. The Nihonbashi seafood donburi tsujiban is really delicious. It is recommended to come in the afternoon when there are fewer people so as not to wait too long.

#Tokyo Food Guide "Tsukiji Honganji Café Tsumugi" located in the information center next to Tsukiji Honganji Temple offers many Japanese meals, desserts and a variety of tea drinks. The most popular one is the special set meal called "18-course breakfast". "Course" means "one dish" in Japanese. As the name suggests, this meal contains a total of 18 dishes, such as "Yuzu Tofu", "Yuba Salmon Roe", "Roast Duck with Sansho", etc. The 18 dishes are arranged on a wooden rectangular tray, and the visual effect is quite eye-catching. The daily supply of "18-course breakfast" is limited. Although you can wait for a table on site, it will be reserved for guests with reservations first. It is recommended to make a reservation in advance through the official reservation website to avoid being disappointed. The 18-course breakfast has been on my list of cafes to go to for a while. I tried to make a reservation several times but there was no availability. This time, about a month ago, I happened to see a time slot at 8:30 a.m. on a weekday, so I quickly pressed the reservation button. You will receive an email notification after the appointment is successful. I am looking forward to it from the moment the appointment is successful. When I went there that day, I was seated on the sofa. The food was served in less than 10 minutes after I ordered. The "18-item breakfast" set includes a bowl of white porridge, a bowl of miso soup, 14 side dishes, a piece of fruit and a dessert, a total of 18 dishes. The white porridge can be refilled for free, and it also comes with a cup of green tea. The price is 2,200 yen. The dark green one on the upper right is the dessert Matcha jelly. Apart from the dessert and the fruit on the left, the rest are side dishes. The orange one below the matcha jelly is seaweed mentaiko. I personally think this dish is quite spicy. If you are not able to eat spicy food or if you have children, you may want to be careful. It is very relaxing to enjoy breakfast while looking out at Tsukiji Honganji Temple from the large floor-to-ceiling windows. If you like Japanese breakfast, it is recommended to make it the first stop of the trip. Address: Japan〒104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 3 Chome−15−1 Honganji Temple Hall Painting in the building

Excellent stamina! Garlic specialty store that is sure to become addictive □Garlic x Garlic Kitchen 📍Suitengu, Tokyo About a 3-minute walk from Suitengu Station on the Tokyo Metro. We came to a garlic specialty store that uses garlic from appetizers to desserts. Super Peperoncino Carbonara with garlic egg yolk sauce Garlic toast Apple juice They use sweet garlic from Takko Town, Aomori Prefecture, and it was certainly sweeter and more fluffy than regular garlic. Their specialty garlic toast is topped with garlic and is addictively delicious. The Super Peperoncino also contains about five times the usual amount of garlic, making it excellent for stamina. The amount of garlic in the carbonara was modest compared to other menu items. I also ordered apple juice, which is said to have a deodorizing effect on garlic dishes, and it was rich and delicious. Eat garlic dishes and feel energized from the inside out! #0yentravel #Suitengu #lunch 📍Address: 1-12-11 Nihonbashi Ningyocho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 103-0013
