🍤 Kaneko Hannosuke Food Experience

I arrived right at opening time on a weekday and got in without any wait.

While waiting for the tempura to be fried, I loaded up on the pickled side dishes that come with the meal.

The three types of pickles are tsubozuke (pickled daikon), ika yuzu (squid marinated in yuzu), and takana mentai (mustard greens with mentaiko). They were so good I went back for refills multiple times.

The lunch set comes with unlimited rice and miso soup refills.

The soft-boiled egg tempura that comes at the very end is the real star. Crack it open over your rice, drizzle a little soy sauce from the table, and you've got the perfect bite.
