たいめんけんomrice! :)

 located: nihonbashi, c4 exit

Kept wanting to try this place after seeing 朝日テルビ reporting it on TV. The reporter just kept saying " OIshii~~" "UMMM!!" the whole time when she was eating that omrice. I seriously thought she was bluffing when she said the wait is usually about two to three hours during weekdays/weekends. But nope.. she's telling the truth.. you know what's crazier? I actually waited in line for three hours for that omrice -__---~

 Just wanted to take some pictures of the interior. The whole time when i was eating i was literally staring at the people in line around the corner. It's not like i want to. It's more like they kept looking in so i had no choice but to look back at times.. and secretly feel bad for them because i know they have at least a good 20 or 15 minutes to go before they can enjoy their yummy omrice...

now.. the omrice. It is AMAZING in a way that it's so.. raw on the inside but so cooked on the outside. I got the タンポポオムライス 1950yen without knowing what 伊丹十三風 is.. turns out it was just ketchup.. Now here comes the exciting part....

 you see..??

 gotta cut them slowly (it's sooo hardd to cut thru them because of the texture.. it's just way too soft ;/ )..

 ta-da!! than you unfold them on top of your rice.
Thats the proper way of eating them.. according to the lady who worked there..

now this was my friends beef version....

 obviously the only difference between the two was just that hers came with beef and beef stew sauce.. while mine just came with ketchup and had nothing in it...

Uncle Wu made a biggg fuss about coming to this place. He kept telling us how important it is for us to dress nicely, wear nice socks, and wear nice shoes ( preferably brand name shoes?). I never quit got the logic behind it until i got to the place. I guess he just wanted us to be polite, because we will be taking our shoes off and walking around on tatami's ( the jap style floor made of wood chip boards).

 It was truly a very unique experience. It was the first time i got served at a restaurant with no tables, and waitress wearing kimonos walking around.  They were all very polite and elegant.

 fresh uncooked chirako. I've had cooked chirako's before but this was my first! It didn't taste as "seafoody" as i expected. It was pretty good. But personally i still prefer eating cooked and baked chirakos.

 Drinking red wine with cheese on a beautiful chilly afternoon at the busy streets of omotesando was a very pleasurable experience.

 i was particularly amazed by their Quiche, wasn't sure if it's because i was hungry or just that it's way too tastey. If i remember correctly they only serve thirty (or something like that) of those during noon.
