Bonito Shokudo Gohan + Bonito Shokudo's Special Raw Eggs There is a TV show that I love called "Seven Rules" ( ), and I have wanted to eat this breakfast since I saw the broadcast of the show. I finally made it. I'm so happy. I wanted to go so bad that I left my friend who is not good at bonito flakes in the middle of Tokyo and stood in line by myself without feeling guilty. Yay, yay, yay. A beautiful lady with bonito-colored hair and a twisted hachimaki shaved bonito flakes right in front of me. A bonito entertainment show. I tried to act calm and quiet since I was alone, but secretly I was very, very excited 🔥🔥. The system is titled "Spring Bonito Festival" and you can choose one bonito flakes you want to eat from 5 different bonito flakes. And then ！！！！！！！！！ Katsuo-chan-san tells you the story of all the bonito flakes one by one. This is very interesting. I had never thought about the process of turning bonito into bonito flakes, and I learned that the process differs depending on the person who makes it. I don't have anywhere to show it off (laughs). By the way, I chose "Kinshichi Shoten's" bonito flakes. I was told that they make bonito flakes while playing classical music. Amazing. It's like a fetus. They say it's a bonito flakes with a salty taste at the end after the tenderness. And ！！！！！！ When you are eating the super quality nekomamama, Katsuo-chan chooses to put a different type of bonito flakes on top of the rice in the form of "Oitikatsuo". The "otei katsuo" was from Sakai Shoten. Kokoro-bushi. The name "Shinbushi" was given to the dried bonito flakes because all of the children have the kanji for "heart". That's a good story, isn't it? Kindness of kindness, of kindness, of bonito flakes. I had never had a chance to compare bonito flakes since I was born, so it was a very exciting morning! It was great to be able to move freely in Tokyo on a sunny day during the Katsuo Shokudo event. It was fun to be interviewed by the TV crew from Telemacho. At the end, when I told them I was from Toyama Prefecture, they told me that the bonito flakes from Himi were fatty and delicious, and Katsuo-chan cheerfully said "Thank you very much! I can't wait to come back 🐟 again 🐟. Oh ！！！！！！！！！ I forgot to mention ！！！！！！！！！ The miso soup with lots of ingredients and the dashimaki tamago (rolled egg) are super tasty ！！！！！！！！！ #🐟 #🍚

A store specializing in dried bonito flakes that you want to support. It is already a popular restaurant in various media. Don't go there on a vacation morning. I waited for 2 hours. Weekday mornings are recommended. Business hours vary so check their Facebook page for hours of operation. Then, we went inside the restaurant! He is a manly man! And thank you very much! It's so cool to hear "katsuobushi" spoken in katsuobushi language! Is the world going more and more in a maniacal direction to become such a popular restaurant with rice and dried bonito flakes? I like it! Counter only. Children are allowed. But everyone eats too slowly! This is a morning restaurant! Lunch time is also available, but everyone should eat a little earlier. I understand that you want to stay longer, but..., There are a lot of people waiting in line, so I just eat quickly and go home. Enjoy the bonito flakes! Thank you for the food! That's how I feel. I will go back again because this is habit-forming.

Exploration of restaurants that refuse to be interviewed ● Bonito and rice (800 yen, free with a large serving of rice) The set includes, A large bowl of rice topped with bonito flakes Miso soup with a variety of ingredients (on this day, nameko mushrooms and enoki mushrooms were served) Nukazuke (pickles) Raw egg (150 yen) When you first eat the rice with only bonito flakes, your nostrils are assaulted by a shock as if you have jumped into a pool of bonito soup! Then, a light drizzle of soy sauce gives it a richer flavor and makes you feel as if you could eat as many bowls of rice as you want. I left only half of the rice, added a raw egg and some bonito flakes (free of charge), and finished the dish. The owner of the restaurant sent us off with a homemade breakfast and a "Thank you very much for the arigatsu, have a nice day! I was so healed by the personality of the owner who sent me off with "Thank you for the arigatsu, have a hanagatsuo day! The supplier of bonito flakes changes every month, so I wanted to go there every month.

I went to a place that is often introduced on TV 🐟𓂃 * Go to Shibuya for the ultimate breakfast in Tokyo 🚃💨! Even on a weekday, there were many people lined up before the restaurant opened. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 * Once seated, the beautiful owner, Mai-san, carefully explains to us the differences in taste depending on the part of the fish and where today's bonito flakes come from◎ * After that, she shaved the bonito flakes right in front of us, and they were so fluffy that they almost overflowed from the bowl. This time, we compared the taste of male and female bonito flakes with the "Oigatsuo" service, and we were surprised at how different they tasted...! * P.S. I had a great time before the event. P.S. The person in line in front of me that day happened to know the owner? I was so happy to be able to share some of his bonito oil with him, which was also delicious and a perfect match. *

This is the best place to eat special bonito rice @Shibuya I finally made it 😆. Katsuo Shokudo. There are only two types of dishes on the menu. The owner, Katsuo-chan, a beautiful woman who looks like Yuko Oshima, selects today's bonito flakes (Kochi on this day) and shaves them in front of your eyes. With a lecture on bonito flakes, you will be very satisfied. ☺️ The miso soup is made with white miso paste and is to my liking.

You can eat the bonito flakes shaved right in front of you! Moreover, they use bonito flakes from Sakai Shoten, two-time winner of the bonito Olympics! I was able to taste the pinnacle of Japanese breakfast with the bonito flakes in the soy sauce and in the egg rolls!

I had freshly shaved bonito flakes from 4.5 kilograms of bonito and 8 kilograms of bonito. 4.5 kilograms was fluffy and 8 kilograms was sweet.
