Tendon (Tempura Rice Bowl) introduction

Tendon (天丼) is a delightful dish combining crispy tempura with rice, generously topped with a sweet and savory sauce. Different from enjoying tempura on its own, tendon brings a unique harmony of textures and flavors that captivates everyone who tries it. This iconic dish, considered one of the "Three Delights of Edo," features fresh seafood like tiger prawns, sand borer fish, and conger eel caught from Tokyo Bay. The ingredients are expertly fried to a golden crispness using fragrant sesame oil, highlighting the essence of Edo-style tempura. Indulge in the rich aroma of sesame oil and the mouthwatering flavor of the sweet and savory sauce in this classic Edo-style tendon. It's a true taste of tradition!
