Dinner at 食堂おがわ

(SWIPE FOR MORE PICS) One more post on product takeouts from Ogawa which I found to be very cute are these boxes of condiments. One is ちりめん山椒　Chirimen (Japanese anchovies) Sansho (mountain pepper). The tiny fish were cooked in soy based sauce and mixed with sansho pepper seeds, and they are extremely delicious and great for eating with rice (pic 1 top, top 5, pic 6 left) . In the shop you can order Cha-Han (fried rice) stir fried with these chirimen sansho. I liked it so much so I bought... More

In the shop you can order Cha-Han (fried rice) stir fried with these chirimen sansho. I liked it so much so I bought one during COVID19 for my home cooking, not just on plain rice but also for scrambled egg, on top of cold tofu or tamagoyaki, and even with spaghetti (that was so yum 😋). I already got a second box and going to get one for my mom when I go to HK.

The other box was 独活土佐煮 UDO TOSANI. It is a plant called Udo, some called Japanese mountain asparagus, cooked with katsuobushi and seasoning (pic 1 bottom, pic 6 right). Slightly sweet and the udo became very soft. When you heat it up, it also had a melty consistency. Love it so much with my steaming hot rice!

Once again the two packaging were so adorable! For the chirimen sansho, the paper wrapping was printed with Ogawa san’s carving of a man eating a bowl of rice. The Japanese words said 「食堂おがわのちりめん山椒」”Shokudou Ogawa’s Chirimen Sansho” and 「注意:ご飯がとまりません」　“Attention: Cannot Stop Eating Rice” 🤣🤣🤣.

And for the Udo it simply said the shop name and Udo Tosani.

Both are so cute and actually a lot of quantity and you can keep them in the fridge to use as condiments anytime 😋

This very casual izakaya has an astronomical tabelog rating. And trust me, for a good reason. Ogawa-san and his team produce very competently fantastic and varied food. Go there and try to eat as much as possible of the daily menu which they draw up on the back board.
You will thank me!
