Denenkyo is a Chinese restaurant located in a residential district of Tokyo, Yoga.
The restaurant's meal concept is mom's cooking from Beijin.
Chinese food is already very well-known in Japan, but the restaurant is aiming to introduce real local home food of China.
In the menu list, we can find many familier menu and ingredients for Chinese and Japanese; gyoza(Chinese dumpling), oyaki (salty round shape cake), kakuni(diced pork stew), mapo-tofu...
What we had are surely slightly different from what we usually know as Chinese food. Cooking way is simple but I believe that selected ingredients, authentic spices and the professional chef from the hometown country make the difference.
Definetely I prefer these dishes to ones available in typical Chinese restaurants.
The port stew(kakuni, 角煮) is its speciality and is served with sauteed vegetables and thin baked rice papers.
Soup and mapo-tofu are provided by thick earthen pot.
Mapo-tofu is the best match with rice!
The restaurant is decorated charmingly with antiques. They are another delight there.
Lunch special course 8 dishes and dessert at 3500yen.
