Utsunomiya, Tochigi, Japan｜道場宿 おもち茶屋

Wow... this place is Jjin. I was looking for a home-cooked meal and went here on the recommendation of a Japanese person. Not only was the food delicious, but the atmosphere was really nice. This restaurant maintains the interior of a wonderful old mansion. I think it would be nice to bring it when an important guest from abroad comes. Foods made with rice cakes were also unique and delicious. Highly recommended.

first visit There were many reservations written in word of mouth, so I made a reservation by phone, but when I arrived at 11:25, there were more than 10 cars in the parking lot and it was very crowded. I was surprised by the congestion that went beyond my expectations. When I entered the store and told the reservation, I was politely passed through the seat and immediately ordered the mochi gozen. About half of the customers who came after us also ordered the "Omochi Gozen", so it seems to be popular... There seems to be a lot of seats in the store, and the tatami room you pass through has a retro radio, and it looks like an old private house. . The dishes are voluminous with cheese grilled isobe, kinako mochi, agedashi zoni, mini udon, small bowl of boiled seaweed, and anmitsu. The food served in the Showa retro atmosphere was exceptional. The polite response of the store clerk is also wonderful It was a good shop worth visiting even if you made a reservation

I'm worried about Omochi Gozen! It was an old folk house with a very nice atmosphere, and it felt like I was at my old grandma's house. I was guided to a seat in the back, and I was excited when I walked through the narrow corridor. It's a rice cake, so I'm very full! I would love to try other menu items!
