Hotel Oriental Express Tokyo Kamata, conveniently located near Haneda Airport
All the restaurants introduced in this article are within walking distance of Hotel Oriental Express Tokyo Kamata, except for the special ones. Stay at Hotel Oriental Express Tokyo Kamata and enjoy the delicious food that only Kamata can offer!
Aoki Restaurant Kamata East Exit
This is a popular restaurant that serves pork cutlets made with the brand pork "Hayashi SPF."
In the small shop with only eight seats at the counter, regulars order with ease.
Take-out lunch boxes were also ordered one after another.
This time I had the fried horse mackerel, which was crispy and fluffy with plump meat and very satisfying!
The homemade tartar sauce topping was a perfect match.
Definitely try this when you're hungry.
Rice balls
At Onigiri Konga you can enjoy delicious rice balls wrapped in fragrant seaweed.
This shop is supervised by "Otsuka Bongo," a famous rice ball shop that has long queues.
The restaurant is small, with only six seats at the counter, but customers were constantly coming in for takeout.
Kongasan's popular "Egg Yolk Marinated in Soy Sauce" is made with softly pressed rice balls stuffed with plenty of egg yolk.
The saltiness of the soy sauce was just right, and I'm glad to be Japanese and able to truly appreciate this deliciousness...!
For a 50 yen discount, you can also get a smaller rice ball called a "half" so please consult with your appetite.
Hokkaido Ramen Kaede
Hokkaido Ramen Kaede is located inside Keihin Kamata Shopping Arcade Asto.
The restaurant, which has just under 20 seats, is a popular spot for ramen lovers, both men and women.
Their signature dish is apparently miso ramen, but this time I tried the limited-edition "Back Fat Soy Sauce Tonkotsu."
The mellow specially selected soy sauce made at a brewery in Hokkaido and the delicious back fat create an exquisite harmony.
The medium-thick curly noodles, sourced from Sagamiya Seimen, a long-established noodle factory in Sapporo, are perfectly mixed with the rich soup, and you'll finish it in no time!
They have set menus that include gyoza and rice balls, so it's recommended for lunch.
Dining Sabies
This popular local Western restaurant is located on the right hand side of the alley just before the Konparu Main Building in Asuto, Keikyu Kamata Shopping Arcade.
It is a small, cozy space with 4 counter seats and 10 table seats in total.
During lunch time, customers flock in one after another.
Choose "Hamburg steak and fried salmon" from "Today's lunch"
Comes with a nice salad, soup and extra-large serving of rice.
This satisfying menu includes juicy hamburger steak and crispy fried salmon topped with homemade tartar sauce.
If you're looking for traditional Western food such as their signature Saby's hamburger, fried horse mackerel, and omelet rice, this is the place to come!
Grill Suzuko
Grill Suzuko is a traditional Western restaurant that was founded in 1964.
I tried the extremely popular dish, shogayaki, made by the head chef, a former sumo wrestler.
Thick pieces of meat were brought out from the hot plate making a sizzling sound!
It is topped with plenty of ginger.
Lunch comes with salad, rice and miso soup.
Its impressive appearance, different from ordinary thinly sliced meat, is sure to whet your appetite.
It's so delicious that you won't be able to stop eating it with rice, along with the accompanying carrots and potatoes soaked in a special soy sauce!
The thick cut loin is very tender and the knife goes through it easily.
It was my first time eating thick ginger pork, but it was a very satisfying dish.
I thought it would be heavy because it looked so impressive, but I ended up eating it all in no time.
I'm also interested in the crab cream croquette, which is only available for dinner...!
Bonus: Spicy curry specialty restaurant "Hirui-ya" in Omori, Ota Ward
10 seconds walk from Omorimachi Station on the Keikyu Line.
"Hirui-ya," a spice curry specialty store, makes curry every day with a passionate desire to make "Nori Curry" a specialty of Omori, Ota Ward, the birthplace of nori farming.
All of the curries served here are free of synthetic additives, chemical seasonings and are gluten-free.
We use carefully selected seasonings such as additive-free miso and domestic rice oil.
Contrary to its dark appearance, it has a deep and gentle flavour, with the taste of each ingredient brought out by the spices.
It is topped with flavorful seaweed from the local shop Namiki Nori-ten.
I was impressed by the deliciousness of the tender chicken and was able to thoroughly enjoy this "healthy curry"!
This time I had the standard seaweed curry, but there are also a variety of other menus available, such as a mixed curry or a three-kind platter.
Please enjoy this dish that allows you to enjoy the mineral-rich seaweed.
Please come visit us and experience the deep charm of Kamata! Walking around the town is also fun.
