Famous for

Rice Dish, Japan

Tendon

Recommended by Leslie Tay and 11 other food critics.
"It was crisp on the outside but soft and moist on the inside and reminds me of the kind of prawn fritters mom used to make at home. Not quite what I expected, but quite tasty nonetheless."

Recommendations

"It was crisp on the outside but soft and moist on the inside and reminds me of the kind of prawn fritters mom used to make at home. Not quite what I expected, but quite tasty nonetheless."
"The popular dish is shrimp tendon, with many big shrimp tempura all over, the rice is almost hidden beneath."
"The large fried shrimp on a bowl of rice dressed with a sweetened soy sauce attracts long lines of patient customers on weekends, so go early."
"The best place to taste traditional Tendon in Asakusa is Daikokuya restaurant."
"Little shrimps and ladies’ finger covered the fluffy, very lightly and delicately sauced rice, accompanied by a bowl of clear miso soup. Indulged I did…but I just couldn’t finish everything. I was way stuffed!"
"Opened in 1886, Daikokuya Tempura is a popular store of tendon in Asakusa. Their sweet but salty seasoning has not changed since the store opened."
"It might look salty but the taste is actually quite mild. The prawns here are big and will definitely make your meal a filling one! "
"It was very yummy! Highly recommend this if you are in the Asakusa area and want to grab some authentic tempura."
"While a bit soggy than the usual tempura, the batter was bursting with sinful flavours of sweet and salty which complimented the juicy crunchiness of the massive prawn inside."
"The basic Tendon set – with one prawn, mixed tempura and kisu fish – is a good choice."
