The retro Showa-era architecture and warm, friendly atmosphere, plus the connection to the 'It's Tough Being a Man' movie series, make this one of Tokyo's must-visit spots.
Kanda Tamagoken Akihabara
The yellow restaurant sign marks the Omurice (Omelette Rice) restaurant. The restaurant is small with only 11 seats at the counter, and has an open kitchen where you can watch the Chef preparing food.
The fragrant rice with the half-cooked eggs is so good! The eggs are soft and creamy, and when you take a bite with the hamburger steak, the flavors go perfectly together. The pickled veggies help cut through the greasiness, too.
