渋谷たまごけん【TAMAGO-KEN SHIBUYA】

I actually stumbled upon this restaurant by accident. I originally planned to have omurice (omelette rice) tonight, but the restaurant I found was packed with a long queue, so we quickly looked for another place on our phones! The reviews for this place looked pretty good, but it was located in a very strange spot. When we followed the directions, we found that the restaurant was actually quite small, and as soon as the elevator doors opened, we were right in front of this omurice place, which had only about 10 seats inside!

The ordering system was self-service, so once we placed our orders on the machine, the food would be delivered to us! The dishes took a little bit of time to prepare, and although the omurice looked fairly ordinary, it truly surprised us with its taste!

I highly recommend:
❤️ Hamburger Steak Omurice
The hamburger patty was extremely tender and juicy, and with every cut, you could see the juices flowing out. Paired with their curry, the flavor was just fantastic! The omelette was cooked so it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and you could really smell the aroma of the egg mingling with the curry. I absolutely recommend this dish! Even I, with my small appetite, finished the whole serving!

My friend had the steak curry rice 🍛, which was also pretty good, but I felt the steak wasn’t as tender as the hamburger patty. Still, the curry was nice. If the steak could be a bit thicker and more tender, I believe it would be even better!

Overall, I really recommend this restaurant. After all, there are so many delicious things in Japan, and you don’t necessarily have to search for those highly recommended places to find good food. Places like this small restaurant hidden upstairs can really offer you the local flavors that the Japanese 🇯🇵 love! I encourage anyone going to Tokyo to give it a try!
