Originally we wanted to try a small homey restaurant in 赤坂 called 天茂. However, when we got there, we saw a bunch of businessmen sitting around the table and the owner said a bunch of Japanese words to us. Although we don’t understand Japanese, we can tell that they are already all booked for lunch. Once again, we have to go with a plan B. We decided to go to 天松 in 渋谷 because we will be going to the area for shopping anyway. When we went inside the restaurant, there was no one else in the main area of the restaurant. We were given corner seats with a great view of the chef cooking right in front of us.
We wanted to compare the two different styles of tempura, so we ordered a 關東 style tempura-don and also a 關西 style tempera set. Various types of seafood and vegetables are served as tempura. This includes shrimp, white fish, sea eel, pumpkin, broccoli, and green bean. In the 關西 style tempera set, each piece of tempera is cooked individually and served on the plate immediately. I prefer the 關東 style tempura because of the richer taste. My husband likes the 關西 style tempera better because he thinks it’s lighter and crispier. So, which style is better? I think it depends on the individual’s taste.
