"Open for: Lunch and dinnerPrice range: $You’ll find dozens of shops lining this street in the Tsukishima neighborhood all serving monjayaki, a local dish similar to Osaka’s okonomiyaki. The setup at every shop is essentially the same: Diners select fillings such as mentaiko (spicy pollack roe), mochi, and cheese, and cook the monja themselves on a large iron plate set into each table with the help of a tiny spatula. The trick is to spread the mixture out thin and wait for it to crisp up (the staff will gladly show first timers the proper technique). Paired with an icy mug of beer, it’s a fun meal. Know before you go: The street is blocked off at night for pedestrians, letting visitors peruse the shops and giving the whole scene a festive atmosphere." - Yukari Sakamoto
