One set includes Japanese rice, one main dish, two side dishes, and delicious soup. There are various options such as the Tonkatsu set (deep-fried pork cutlet), Karaage set (Japanese-style fried chicken), Salt-grilled fish set, and Teriyaki grilled fish set.

In addition, if you are in a hurry, there are also quick dish options such as Tempura Soba (天ぷらそば) commonly found on street corners. The hot soup with smooth soba noodles is served with crispy tempura shrimp on top. It is delicious, fast, and full of nutritional value. Moreover, just stepping into a convenience store, you can find various Onigiri (おにぎり) rice balls with fillings such as salmon, tuna, egg, natto, or pickled plum, as well as freshly brewed coffee from an automatic drip machine at a great value to fill your stomach and keep you ready for work or walking all day long.

Made from rice flour filled with sweet and fragrant red bean paste, they are perfect when paired with hot green tea that has some slightly bitter. Alternatively, if you prefer something crispy, we recommend Senbei (せんべい), a snack made from wheat or wheat flour that is shaped into round or flat discs, then dried and grilled over the fire until crispy. It may be seasoned with salt, shoyu, sugar, or wrapped in nori seaweed. You can find many Senbei shops in Tokyo’s old downtown area and shopping districts around the city. Finally, end your afternoon delicious journey with Taiyaki (鯛焼き), a well-known Tai fish (Japanese red seabream)-shaped bread filled with sweet red bean paste. It’s extremely satisfying when eaten hot from the oven.

Fish roe and squid meat are also available. To take it up a notch, place the sashimi on top of steamed rice and pour tea or hot soup over it in a bowl, creating a Japanese-style dish called Chazuke (ちゃづけ), perfect for warming up on a cold day. As Tokyo is known as the best place to eat ramen, there are plenty of unique ramen dishes for you to choose from.
