Tokyo boast the specialty dish 'Tendon'. There is unbelievable queue at front of the restaurant at a lunch time and you have to wait. But it is worth waiting. It has many crispy shrimps, large congers, eggs, shellfishes with a secret sauce. The tendon is ultimate delicious.

There are fish, vegetables, and meat tempura. The rice can be refilled, so you can sprinkle the soup stock steamed in a clay bottle to make the soup stock chazuke. It's also good for girls and dates.

Those who don't know how to order may be confused at first. It's completely do it your self style (but you can ask kind staffs). And since they have many holidays, you might want to confirm before visiting.

Their distinctive features are good amount of batter coating, a secret sauce taking out the tastes of tempura, and the good balance of all foodstuffs. It was made by fine skills of a long established restaurant.

There are two natural grown big shrimps that cannot stay in a bowl. Very nice fresh and chewy shrimp. It can't be eaten such a dynamic tendon except in Setouchi.

Shima Table is right next to the port. 'Sazae' a turbo cooked in its own shell, rice with turbo, and tempura of fresh octopus are all superb as Ogi Island's specialties! Try some when you arrive at Ogi or before you take the ferry to leave the island.

At Ogijima of Kagawa prefecture, MADOKA is a tourist home and an eating house. It has a scenic window seats that commands the calm seascape of Ogi Island, and you can eat the local specialty seafood. And tempura of octopus has good chewiness I like very much.◎Window seats are special seats where you can see the beautiful sunset. They open until the stocks out, so it's better for you to go earlier or make a reservation.

Soba noodle displayed in Bocchi-mori style on a bamboo colander with fresh natural wasabi (Japanese horseradish) grained by yourself, crispy tempura, and the local hot sake. This taste can be realized in this area with clear air and mysterious huge trees. Please enjoy the fresh soba noodle.◎It's the most crowded restaurant in this area with many soba shops, so there's often 1 hour wait even after lunch time. Let's try Soba-yu (hot water after boiling soba), Soba-karinto (snack), and Soba-manju (sweets with soy bean jam), which are popular in Nagano Pref.

A tempura specialty restaurant 'Funabashiya' has a long history over 100 years since it opened. At its branch restaurant in Kinshi-cho, which is directly connected with Kinshicho Station, you can eat genuine tempura of the seasonal foodstuffs. What's more, it commands the view of Tokyo Sky Tree! I like Sashimi as well as tempura here!
