(63) No doubt you will be into Oden lunch (OTAKO near Tokyo station)

Oden lunch set of OTAKO near Tokyo station.
800 yen.


Oden is a kind of pot including numerous variety of ingredients.

Boiled egg, fish dumpling, tofu, fried tofu, konjac, fish mousse, Japanese radish, fish sausage, flour dumpling, tomato, beef gristle and everything.

I suppose there are as many as the Oden restaurants and stands on the street.

And the traditional restaurants have ingredient(s) they invented.

Usually, oden is very casual food, so the restaurants are tiny and narrow.


This restaurant is also traditional one but fortunately occupies wide space near Tokyo station.

A special dish is Tofu rice, which is one topped with big tofu on the rice.

Rice is tasted lightly with soy sauce.
Tofu is soaked in soy sauce.

On the top of that,,,

When you go to Oden restaurants, I strongly recommend you always order Japanese radish (DAIKON) and fried tofu (or GANMODOKI).

All of them always prepare these two ingredients because all Japanese always order and compare with other restaurants.

Owners never cut corners for them.
