About this spot
In Ueno's bustling Asakusa district, Tsukushi serves Monjyayaki and Okonomiyaki that are thick enough to stand on a chopstick without breaking. The batter is rich and savory, topped with generous piles of cabbage, pork belly, and a glossy egg yolk that you must scramble directly onto the hot griddle for maximum flavor.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Monjyayaki first as it takes longer to cook than the Okonomiyaki.
- Ask for extra bonito flakes (katsuobushi) to sprinkle on top right before serving for an intense umami kick.
- Bring your own chopsticks if you prefer thin ones, as the restaurant often provides thick wooden pairs that can be difficult to maneuver with small toppings.
