About this spot
Tucked away in Asakusa, this izakaya-style spot serves monjayaki that is distinctly thinner and stickier than its Osaka counterpart, perfect for dipping into the rich tare sauce. The open griddle allows you to watch chefs flip their savory pancakes while sipping a cold beer or shochu in a lively, casual atmosphere.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the 'Matsukura' style monjayaki if you prefer a crispier exterior and chewier interior texture.
- Ask for extra tare sauce immediately upon seating, as the salty glaze is essential for balancing the savory pork and cabbage filling.
- Visit during lunch hours to avoid the peak evening crowds that fill the small counter seats.
