If you want to eat omelet rice in Tokyo, this is the place! 3 carefully selected Western food restaurants in Bassi







Among the famous omelet rice restaurants, there is one that I did not choose. At the top of the list is Shiseido Parlor. Although it is probably the most beautiful omelet rice in the world, both the rice inside and the tomato sauce on top were too bland for my taste buds. By the way, the hamburger was dry and had a slight pungent smell from the ground pork. Wouldn't it be better to refocus yourself a little? ``Azabu Shokudo'' also fell. The chicken rice was bitter (perhaps because the peppers and mushrooms were burnt), and the taste was cloudy and not very good. On the other hand, ``Taimeiken'' is comparable to the following three stores, but it is not listed here because it will be listed under a different item. I would like to report that such a situation occurred.








I don't call myself a long-established store.

It is a well-known restaurant that cannot be pushed or pushed. A steady stream of customers arrive as soon as the store opens at noon. Some customers are looking for a great value lunch, while others want to drink delicious draft beer from noon. It's crowded and lively with people of all ages.

 

Meiji42Perhaps because they have been working in this area since 2010, the price is quite low compared to the content. Although it is now recognized as a beer hall, it was originally a Western restaurant. If the beer is good, the food is also very good. They have a reputation for sharp beer, so even though I don't usually drink beer, I ordered the "Half & Half Draft Beer" for lunch (lol).

Now, the omelet rice that I have eaten the most in my life is from this restaurant. I would like you to see its heroic appearance. A moist, well-cooked omelet drizzled with ketchup, it looks exactly like it should if you ask me (I wrote about the less-than-ideal omelette in detail last time).

 

If you split the omelet with a spoon, you'll see chicken rice made from chicken and onions. The butter has a rich flavor, and the ketchup taste is neither too strong nor too weak, and the acidity is just right. It's the perfect seasoning for chicken rice wrapped in an omelet. Therefore, the part of the egg that came into contact with the rice was soft and half-boiled. That's an important point. It's great if you put it in your mouth together! It has been decided.

 

Moreover, with this quality,1100Yen is impossible! It's great that even though it's in the center of Tokyo, the prices are comparable to what you'd pay at a coffee shop on the outskirts of the city.

Shredded cabbage is served on the side, and the luncheon's signature tomato dressing is surprisingly delicious. It's full-bodied, with just the right amount of sourness and a little sweetness, and it's truly wonderful. The pleasure of tasting this is one of the reasons to visit this restaurant. By the way, one500It's sold in yen.

 

Well, actually, this restaurant has a number of wonderful dishes - ``Fried shrimp (using extra large natural shrimp)'', ``Handmade minced meat cutlet'', ``Pork cutlet'', and ``Hamburger steak''.……I have a lot to say about this, but I'll save that for another time. Anyway, let me point out that the faces of the customers eating and drinking here are filled with joy. Last but not least, the friendliness and kindness of the employees is also worth mentioning.

The happiness of eating omelette rice and crab cream croquette
Asakusa "Grill Grand"

Isn't this another famous restaurant? It looks like he's going to push me. That's right, since its founding.80A super famous store that has been around for over a year. But it's delicious, so I can't help it. In recent years, I have seen Matsuko Deluxe highly praised on TV. This store is 2FApart from the private room, 1FThe number of seats is small. That's why it's a battle for seats day and night (though you can make reservations).




Grill Grand Crab Cream Croquette Grill Grand Crab Cream Croquette



Omelet rice is part of the set menu for lunch, and comes with a mini salad and corn soup. The dressing on this salad had a good taste, but it was too strong, and the soup was bland, perhaps on purpose. At this point, the excitement drops a little, but when the crab cream croquette, which 80% of the customers order, comes out next, the mood immediately picks up.

 

After all, it has won the Gold Award in the cream category of the Croquette Grand Prix for seven consecutive years. It doesn't have much of a crab flavor, but the béchamel sauce tastes good, and the way it's fried is perfect. People recommend that you eat it as is, without adding any sauce, and that's exactly right. This is definitely a must-add item.

It's also great that the omelet rice is brought to you right when you finish eating the croquettes. Please take a look. Well, it has perfect form and beauty. Similar to the aforementioned ``luncheon,'' this is the ideal omelet rice that I have in mind.

 

The ingredients for chicken rice are chicken, onions, and mushrooms. It was stir-fried to remove the sourness and had a really nice ketchup flavor. It is moist. And the part of the omelet that touches the chicken rice is wonderfully melty. Adding a little ketchup and eating everything together is nothing short of blissful.

 

Probably, among the classic style omelet rice, it is slightly better than "Luncheon" in terms of overall balance, and may be the best in Tokyo. Let's get that out of the way.

 

The menu also includes beef fillet cutlet, beef stew, stewed hamburger steak, pork loin cutlet, fried prawns, gratin, and more, so no matter what you eat, you're sure to be very satisfied. If possible, it would be best if you could come in a large group and sample 5 to 6 different types before your omelet rice.

Ideal omelet rice experience at a famous downtown restaurant

Well, it seems like the third house is probably going to be there after all. This restaurant ranks third in terms of deliciousness, following the two restaurants mentioned above.

 

First, I ate a small potage. It tastes like potatoes, onions, and bacon and is quite good.

Now, omelet rice is classified as an egg dish at this restaurant. You can choose your toppings from ham, chicken, shrimp, or crab, but the prices vary. Ham is the cheapest1700Yen, shrimp and crab2400It's a yen. The customer next to me ordered ham and I ordered chicken. What arrived was an ideal-looking omelet rice.

 

Flip the egg and eat the chicken rice. The ingredients are moist with chicken, onions, and mushrooms, and the flavor is light. As it is called an egg dish, the omelet part is very creamy inside. Eating a rich omelet with rice and ketchup creates the ideal balance. However, points are deducted for the fact that the chicken rice wrapped in egg is biased.






Tsutsui pork ginger Tsutsui pork ginger




All of the other menu items look delicious, but I highly recommend the famous "Pork Ginger". It's chewy, has plenty of ginger, and is very delicious. It's a popular restaurant, so you won't be able to get in unless you make a reservation in the evening.

What does "If you don't eat this, your life is ruined" mean?
Bassey, an editor with over 40 years of food-loving experience, is rumored to be a Reiwa-era Brillat-Savarin, or even the return of Furukawa Roppa, who rushes west and east to eat every time he hears there's something delicious to eat. A heart-wrenching gourmet essay.

 



Author profile

 

Bassey is a foodie who has been eating around for over 40 years. In addition to Japan, he regularly goes to Hong Kong to eat Chinese food at his own expense, and also travels to Taiwan, Singapore, Bangkok, and Seoul for delicious food. During his time as the editor-in-chief of a travel magazine, he visited many Michelin-rated restaurants around the world, especially in Europe, and later on in the World's Best 50 restaurants. We want everyone who loves food to try ``Crab Miso Bean Paste Noodles'' from ``Tenkorou'' (Hong Kong). Actually, I like the Chinese food at this restaurant the best in the world. Another example of the best Western food is "El Seger de Can Roca" from Girona, Spain, which was ranked number one on the World's Best 50 list. Ah, I want to go there again.
