Kodo has enjoyed decades of collaborations, folk song workshops, and friendship with Takio Ito, ever since Rokusuke Ei introduced us in 1996. The trick is to place each piece meat side down on your tongue for maximum flavour – don’t be lured in by the crispy golden crusts, no matter how tempting they look.Folk singer Takio Ito is renowned for his unique interpretations and powerful renditions of Japan’s beloved traditional folk songs-the soundtrack of our lives growing up in Japan. It’s an eye-opening experience exploring the various flavours and textures of pork, and you can really taste the difference from cut to cut. On the table you’ll find Himalayan salt as well as two types of sauces, and come dinner, the chef will bring out the restaurant’s signature balsamic vinegar sauce. The pork is served fresh off the fryer, piece by piece, like a set course meal, and the chef will recommend the best condiment for each one. The restaurant uses two types of pork: Yonezawa-buta Ichiban Sodachi, which has a good balance of umami and sweetness, and local Tokyo X-buta, favoured for its sweet, juicy fat. And with prices that won’t break the bank: lunch costs as little as ¥2,800 while dinner starts from an affordable ¥5,500. Omakase lunch from ¥2,800, dinner from ¥5,500įrom the folks behind the Michelin-starred crab speciality restaurant Kitafuku comes a unique restaurant that elevates tonkatsu (deep-fried breaded pork) from a casual meal to an omakase experience. RECOMMENDED: Try the best cheap Michelin meals in Tokyo Want to treat yourself on a budget? Here are Tokyo’s best omakase courses and tasting menus for under ¥10,000. However, it’s the integrity and intimacy of these tailored dining experiences that define them, rather than the terms used to label them. With so many restaurants offering their own interpretation of omakase dining, the line between omakase courses and tasting menus are sometimes blurred. It’s a culture that chefs across Tokyo hold dearly, with many incorporating omakase into their restaurants regardless of whether they’re serving Spanish tapas or charcoal-grilled yakitori. Omakase dining is all about the joy of anticipating what the chef might serve, marvelling at the near-choreographed way they work in the open kitchen, and savouring the best ingredients of the season. Nor are they strictly limited to Japanese cuisine. While it's true that these gastronomic affairs are generally reserved for a special occasion splurge, they don’t have to break the bank. The word ‘omakase’ typically comes up at high-end Japanese restaurants where in lieu of ordering from a menu, diners entrust the chef to serve a selection of recommended dishes and seasonal specials. Omakase? In this economy? We know it’s hard to believe, but there are plenty of fine dining restaurants in Tokyo where you can treat yourself to a seasonal course dinner for less than ¥10,000.
