Chiyoda City, Tokyo, Japan｜Buta-Daigaku Jinbōchō

Located on the third floor is this restaurant that serves amazing buta rice bowls at great prices. You order at the machine at the entrance then enter, find a seat at a table or along the counter then hand your docket to the staff who will serve you the food when ready. I ordered the medium size, and the char grilled pork belly was so good! It had a caramelised sweet and savoury glaze and was absolutely moreish. The rice also had the sauce running through it making every mouthful a pleasure. Prices are good value for what you get, and I would definitely go back.

Must try!!! They’re known for one thing—a bowl of delicious rice topped with smoky, salty, sweet & umami thin bacon that is perfectly grilled. Make sure to order egg & miso soup on the side. So yummy!

Amazing taste. Very reasonable price. Generous portion. The only downside is it's located on the 3rd floor and you gotta walk up the stairs. They have an elevator, but only to go down. The place is also very tight. Service was quick and friendly.
