Tokyo is such a varied city that one never fails to find new innovative ideas - from fashion to technology to cuisine. A Tokyo chain of restaurants that has recently caught the eye of lifestyle, culture, and travel magazine Monocle is Soup Stock Tokyo. Soup Stock Tokyo was mentioned by the UK publication as an innovative brand upholding a novel concept worth sharing the world.
And the fennel bulbs guess here's the reason why:
A set menu comprising 2 bowls of soup of your own choosing plus sesame seed rice. On this tray is a bowl of lobster bisque and cream of leeks. Both are just amazing, both bursting with flavor. At first the thought of having soup and rice for dinner is a bit weird, but it's just very comforting, especially on a chilly evening. This set costs Y990. Soup Stock has branches all over Tokyo, including this one in Fuchu-shi.
Another remarkable restaurant chain that's worth sharing is Freshness Burger. Founded in 1992, Freshness Burger sells burgers made from fresh and organic ingredients. Even the menu indicates where the beef and the vegetables come from. Another interesting thing to note about this chain is that its branches have a very homely ambience, resembling a coffee shop more than a burger shop. This was taken in a shop at Inagi-shi, just a few steps away from the Keio line Inadazutsumi station.
And true it is to its mission, the burgers are just the best the fennel bulbs have ever tasted. The lettuce was all green and spotless and the beef was soft, juicy, and just utterly tasteful. The cheese and the onions were also delightful. It was just blissful. Burgers cost anywhere between Y500 - Y700.
And care to have some hot cocoa (Y250) after those really delicious burgers?
