Founded in 1924, Tsunahachi now has locations all over Tokyo, but continues to operate its original Shinjuku shop in these old-school, battered wooden premises. The standard bowl (¥2,750), available only on weekdays during lunch, is topped with two prawns, prawn kakiage, thick eel cuts and a selection of vegetables, while the batter is thick with a crunchy texture. The whole place is filled with the whiff of cooking oil, but the food is perfectly good enough for everyday fare.
