Tokyo Tsukishima Monji Yakishoku: Enriching taste and culture

Monja Yaki originated in Tsukishima Town, Tokyo, and is considered a specialty dish of the Kanto region. Vegetables, seafood, and meat are fried on an iron plate until they are fragrant, then topped with batter and fried until solid. The rich man thought it was a bit like assorted yaki. Tsukishima Monjayaki Tamatoya is a popular Monjayaki (もんじゃyaki) restaurant. It has many branches in Tokyo. There happens to be one in the Tokyo Station Kuroji Yokocho underground shopping mall. After solving the maze of the underground shopping mall, I finally found it. Dining time is During dinner time on Friday, I finally had a good taste after waiting in line for 30 minutes.

After taking your seat, scan the QR Code and order online. There is a Chinese menu.

The first thing is the egg roll served by the boss. The clerk beat the raw eggs and added some green onions, spread the cream evenly on the iron plate and poured in the egg liquid.

The iron plate squeaked, and in less than a minute, the fragrant egg rolls were on the table, one for each person as an appetizer.

Today's main meal is pork assorted fried noodles and mixed seafood monjayaki. The table is a bit small and the food can hardly be accommodated.

The assorted fried noodles are average, not too salty, but filling.

For seafood monjayaki, first put all kinds of seafood aside and fry slowly until cooked. At the same time, put the cabbage in a circle, add the batter stock in the middle, and wait for 3 minutes.

Finally, add the seafood to the batter stock, and it won’t take long for the seafood monjayaki to be completed! In fact, the rich man felt that it tasted a bit like drinking soup, and it was quite delicious to eat it bite by bite with a spatula. It is worth mentioning that the taste is rich, the shrimps, scallops, and scallops are all quite fresh, and they don’t taste too salty. Rich people recommend it.

rich man experience

Overall, Tsukishima Monjayaki Monopoly is highly recommended. Every dish is prepared by the staff at the table, but you didn’t have to wait for long. The staff was full of energy. It is a very unique Japanese Tokyo food and is worth trying. However, the temperature of the iron plate was very high. It was actually a bit hot to sit next to it. In addition, the air-conditioning in the semi-open space was not cold. The boss provided free iced water and I drank two large glasses of it. That’s right! You can only order half portion of some Monja-yaki dishes, which is great news for those who want to try a few more flavors. Rich people recommend it!
