On a quiet again road of Tsukiji Market is Tohto Grill. I first went as a brand new rent of Uoriki seafood firm. We had an early morning go to to Tsukiji to see the auctions: tuna, uni, dwell seafood, and processed seafood. The one factor we missed was the produce public sale.
Breakfast was at Tohto Grill, within the basement of a nondescript constructing. Again then the restaurant was full of fishmongers, lots of them smoking. Now Tohto Grill is non smoking and sadly a lot of the fishmongers are working at Toyosu Market, so the restaurant is usually quiet.
Here’s a current breakfast was a every day particular of tonkatsu, tuna donburi, salad, and miso soup. For the basement cut price worth of solely 950 yen ($6.50). Most diners sit going through the tv perched in a single nook of the room. It’s commonplace for the opposite diners to order a beer or saké, as they’re ending their work day. I nonetheless am beginning my day as I’m right here earlier than a market tour.
Tohto Grill was lately talked about within the New York Occasions in a enjoyable article by Timothy Taylor. Taylor san writes about cooking courses he takes in Tokyo. The article began earlier than the pandemic. Great to see it accomplished with a second go to after the border reopened.
