Tentenkyokyo Umean

Tempura, Soba

¥¥¥

‘Tentenkyokyo’ carries the heartfelt wish that guests will enjoy tempura and soba to their heart’s content. Shiba shrimp, skewered and deep-fried, is a standard of soba-shop tempura beloved since the Edo period. Although the sea from which shiba shrimp were once harvested has been reclaimed as land, the tradition lives on. Shiba-shrimp tempura embodies the spirit of Edo, and the food culture resonates even today. For your omakase set menu, you can choose whether to include small dishes in the bill of fare or focus solely on tempura.

Yoshoku · Bib

¥¥

Since its inception in 1905, this Western restaurant has been run by four generations of the same family. The chef’s famous cutlet is deep-fried in lard carefully trimmed from the pork he will fry. Everything is done by hand, as it has been from the first generation. The youthful energy and practiced skill of the chef is evident in every detail, even down to the hand-chopped cabbage. Traditional flavours and skills testify to his mettle. Delicious fare and the gentle ambience of a family enterprise make everyone feel at home.

Tompachitei

Tonkatsu · Bib

This popular spot lies in a back-alley near Ameya-Yokocho. Defending the restaurant’s noren is its third-generation chef, who grew up in this part of Ueno but sharpened his skills in Europe. Tonkatsu here is primarily pork loin cutlets. Applying his knowledge of Western techniques, the chef fries thick cuts of pork in relatively cool lard over a gentle flame. With rock salt, Worcestershire sauce, tonkatsu sauce and soy sauce on offer, it’s fun to compare how each tastes. Be prepared to queue first.

Thai culinary culture interpreted through Japanese ingredients. She moved to Bangkok and honed her culinary skills, now offer her cuisine prix fixe. Chopped mix of pomelo and seafood derives from the table of the royal court; rice vermicelli yakisoba is inspired by Bangkok street food. Curries are prepared with fresh-pressed coconut milk. Regional cuisines are reproduced using fermented or matured homemade seasonings. KHAO overflows with inquisitiveness and passion for Thai cuisine.

‘Harmony’ and ‘circulation’ are the keywords of this dining experience. Through his partnerships with farmers, the chef returns compost to revitalise the soil. The prix fixe presentation starts with a bowl of soup. Vegetable ends are used in the soup’s creation, expressing a wish for a society that doesn’t waste food. Prepared with French techniques, the fare is simple and light. The grey of the interior creates something of a laboratory feel.

A ‘sugidama’, a traditional ball made from sprigs of Japanese cedar, hangs from the eaves of a house with a unique green décor. The restaurant is the creation of Milan-based Yoji Tokuyoshi and the concept is ‘Italian food with Japanese ingredients’. To draw out the delicious flavour of ingredients in season, preparations are kept simple. A menu focused on à la carte selections encourages guests to enjoy freely. The richly seasonal menu offers something new to discover on every visit.

Chef Guillaume Bracaval expresses the Japanese landscape in his cuisine. Travelling across the country to familiarise himself with ingredients, he experienced its abundant nature first-hand. The map of Japan indicating where all his ingredients come from traces his journey. Wanting to create delicate and healthy dishes, he limits his use of butter and cream. Desserts inspired by contemporary art are highly original. Perched on the hotel’s top floor, the dining room affords stunning views of the city below.

Kagurazaka Ishikawa

Japanese · ★★★ Michelin

¥¥¥¥

Hideki Ishikawa’s guiding principle is ‘mui-shizen’: serve cuisine that is true to nature, free from artifice. Flavours are light, respecting each ingredient. Simplicity makes presentations all the more impressive, with consideration for harmony among flavours. Niigata rice is cooked fresh and served in earthen bowls, imparting the taste of the chef’s homeland. Kitchen and service staff work together with the practised solidarity of a well-rehearsed team.
