Otakou

Every time I visit Japan/Tokyo, this is one of the restaurants I always visit. The restaurant serves oden, which is a traditional meal in which various ingredients are cooked in broth for hours. You order the food you want and it is served immediately. Single serving and the cost differs depending o...n the ingredient. I like to finish the meal by ordering ochazuke (rice bowl with some ingredients in tea broth, I recommend either the wasabi or ume, or plum). The Japanese like to order small dishes for dinner and then "conclude" the meal by ordering a rice dish or ramen. For full experience, I suggest sitting at the bar so you can see all the ingredients and the chef preparing the dishes for the customers.
