【Ordered Menu】Tempura Rice Bowl JPY 5,500Kuromame Tea JPY 880Total JPY 6,380This tempura restaurant is a 5-minute walk from Yotsuya Station.I made a reservation for OMAKASE at 17:55.◯ Tempura Rice BowlThe ingredients include the following 8 types:● Kuruma Ebi (Tiger Prawn)● Shiba Ebi (Grass Prawn)● Sakura Ebi (Cherry Shrimp)● Shiro Uo (Whitebait)● Koshia Bura (Japanese Wild Vegetables)● Takenoko (Bamboo Shoot)● Kogomi (Fiddlehead Fern)● Shiitake MushroomThis is a classic bara tempura rice bowl, where each ingredient is battered and deep-fried, then placed on rice. After adding the tempura, a rich sauce is drizzled on top, followed by the kuruma ebi to finish it off.The batter is not overly thin, and the inside is slightly rare. The sauce is on the lighter side, allowing you to savor the flavors of the ingredients.◯ Pickled Ginger and Grated Japanese Radish◯ Red Miso SoupLast month, I also had the tempura rice bowl at the Nakameguro branch, and while the sauce was thinner, there wasn't much difference overall.Although it's a bit pricey for a tempura rice bowl, the quick service and delicious taste made it satisfying.It's convenient that you can choose your reservation time from afternoon to evening.This time, I made a last-minute reservation since I had a yakitori reservation in Yotsuya an hour later, and this place was nearby.It was a great meal.
