Tempura Asanuma has been leading the genre of tempura with its philosophy of respecting the ingredients, serving them with a light batter and salt. In contrast, Chef Asanuma presents a style that emphasizes the batter itself, blending it to complement each ingredient, and frying the tempura to a crisp perfection in 100% sesame oil. This is served with a dipping sauce for an exquisite experience.【Beverage】❶ Oolong Tea【Price】JPY 28,000 (tax included)【Omakase Course】❶ Hatoshi A familiar dish, Hatoshi features shrimp paste sandwiched between crispy bread.
