Located in an alleyway of Sakae, Ajidokoro Kanou is a long-established casual dining restaurant beloved as the originator of the miso katsu bowl. Their signature original miso katsu bowl is a lavish creation featuring a freshly fried, extra-thick cutlet immersed and simmered in a secret Hatcho miso sauce. Despite its rich appearance, the flavor is not heavy, and breaking into the soft-boiled egg resting on top envelops everything in a smooth, savory depth. Adding a generous topping of green onions introduces a crisp texture for a refreshing change of taste. The first-floor counter seats, which offer a close-up view of the chef's skilled preparation, are ideal for stopping by alone after work or while sightseeing. Enjoy this time-honored specialty bowl to your heart's content in a retro space that retains the nostalgic charm of the Showa era (1926–1989).
