NAKAMEGURO: Teppen Izakaya... you'll never find it unless someone tells you about it. Secret door plus Amazing Sashimi Platter!

Company dinner and we luckily scored a table for 6 on a Monday night... it was packed!

Tiny tiny entrance of a door... 

Welcome note left for those who reserve a table.

One plump chef at the helms.

The automatic otoshi appetizer for this night...

And here comes the stunning sashimi platter with Ootoro!

I'm a drinker when I go for dinner but the food was just so good that I so little alcohol.. The otoro was so melty buttery soft!  A must if you visit.

Grilled chicken with yuzu.

Grilled Tofu... perfectly crispy on the outside and super soft on the inside.

A whole Fish kinda twisted in the belly and grilled.
