I / DAL BHAT

A fried egg on the rice.

Dal (lentil soup) and bhat (rice) at the centre, sides and achar around them, on one plate. Served here as the thali set (¥1,200) — and the house style crowns the rice with a fried egg.

III / THE STORY

The tandoor that came back.

No record gives the founding year. Regulars' blogs remember when a dal bhat set cost one coin — 500 yen. The house rule, confirmed across food diaries: a fried egg goes on top of the rice. In the winter of 2022 the shop moved once, then returned to its original spot in Hyakunincho by the end of that year. From eleven in the morning to night, the tandoor and the dal bhat carry on.

“Wrapped Tibetan-style, like gyoza — juicy broth spills out from inside. Delicious.”
— Google review (on the momo · Local Guide)

Inside the tandoor — naan clinging to the clay wall over glowing coals
