Akasaka Hanamura

Take your time to enjoy each item of carefully fried tempura.

A long-established tempura restaurant established in 1921. The menu offers course meals for both lunch and dinner. The courses are sumptuous, and include two seasonal specials and desserts.

The dinner "bamboo course" includes three Amakusa prawns, four kinds of fish such as whitebait and squid, kakiage, and seasonal vegetable tempura. Try the light-flavored ingredients simply with salt, and the strong-flavored ones with grated daikon with yuzu and tempura sauce for a refreshing taste. Kakiage is also recommended to be served on top of rice in a tempura bowl.

You can watch the tempura being made right in front of your eyes.

For the batter, dilute whole egg and flour with 4 times water. And they try not to stir the ingredients as much as possible to avoid gluten, which is the cause of poor heat. When frying, they use a thick Kuji iron sand pan that does not lose temperature even when the ingredients are added, and they add the ingredients to the pan in order of lightest flavor in thick white sesame oil heated to 170 to 180 degrees Celsius.
Many people from different generations and countries come to eat tempura made with techniques nurtured over many years.

Homu-Restaurant Wakaba

Original omelette rice with demi-glace sauce as the main ingredient

A long-established Western-style restaurant established in 1970. The restaurant attracts many fans with its many Western-style dishes prepared by a chef who loves cooking and its comfortable atmosphere.
The specialty is "Wakafu Omelette Rice (butter-flavored rice + demi-glace sauce). A beaten egg mixed with fried pork, onions, and green peppers is covered with buttered rice. The key to the flavor is the demi-glace sauce, which the chef carefully prepares over a period of three weeks. The sauce is characterized by a rich, mature taste with a moderate bitterness, and when intertwined with the half-boiled egg and buttered rice, it creates an exquisite mellowness.

The cozy atmosphere and customer service attract many repeat customers.

The owner, who entered the culinary world immediately after graduating from junior high school, opened the restaurant at the young age of 22 after training at a number of famous restaurants focusing on Western cuisine. Today, he stands at the restaurant with his two daughters, still wielding his skills in the same manner as when the restaurant was first established.
The interior of the store is a cozy space like a Showa-era coffee shop. Many repeat customers visit the restaurant for its reassuring atmosphere and warm food. Desserts and drinks such as coffee are also available, making it an attractive place to take a breather after a meal.

If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy quality yakitori in Akasaka, this is the place to go. We recommend the "Omakase Course," which includes four seasonal appetizers and seven types of yakitori skewers (including vegetable skewers) recommended for the day. We use carefully selected brand-name chickens such as Kuroiwa-dori, Horohorodori, and Suigo Aka-chicken. The artisanal technique of slow-grilling the chicken over binchotan charcoal enhances the flavor of the ingredients. The meal ends with thick chicken broth ramen noodles or rice topped with fragrant nori seaweed.

Enjoy a glass of sake carefully selected by the owner.

The sake is prepared by the owner, who visits the brewery and carefully selects sake to pair with the yakitori. nearly 100 varieties of sake are available, so you can ask the Staff/staff member for a recommendation and order accordingly.
