There are three "NENE CHICKEN" locations in Shin-Okubo. You can dine in or take out 😋 The store’s landmark is Crayon Shin-chan! There are various types of chicken, so it’s hard to choose!

Must-visit spots on your Tokyo trip! This time, we introduce three recommended restaurants in Tokyo that are perfect for summer! 1️⃣ [Himokawa Kiryu Ikebukuro Branch] This popular udon restaurant uses a style where each person fills out an order sheet, so even if you go with a group, you can pay individually at checkout, which is very convenient. The staff are kind, and the interior is clean. Above all, the udon is very delicious! Having lived in Kagawa, I often find Tokyo udon doesn’t suit my taste, but the udon here has a firm texture. Especially the wide Himokawa udon is very chewy and delicious! It’s also very filling, and the option to order a mixed serving is fantastic👍 Apparently, it’s a specialty of Gunma. The tempura is crispy and hearty, yet all dishes are reasonably priced, which is great! It’s a delicious udon restaurant I want to visit again! 📍Location: 3-18-35 Minamiikebukuro, Toshima-ku, Tokyo 171-0022 2️⃣ [Bangalore’s Kitchen] A Mangalorean cuisine restaurant I was curious about. The Mysore dosa has an authentic taste and is quite filling! The size is rare and delicious enough to share between two people😋 Personally, I found the coconut chutney a bit mild, but overall I was satisfied. Let’s get some spices in this hot summer🫚 📍Location: 2F Ginza Inns 2, 2-2 Nishi, Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0061 3️⃣ [Hong Kong Seiki Okubo Branch] A Hong Kong sweets shop famous for its pudding made with a whole coconut! It features many sweets using tropical fruits like mango, pomelo, and the yangji ganlu with coconut milk. The shop is small but the staff are friendly, and it’s a recommended place to relax. There is also a branch in Ikebukuro. 📍Location: 2F Otsuka Building, 3-1-21 Kitashinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 169-0074

In Okubo, Tokyo, in addition to shopping, the cafes and dessert shops here are also not to be missed. Here are some recommended restaurants worth checking out! Oyoppi Coffee Address: DASUGO Bldg., 2F, ２丁目-３１-18 Ōkubo Shinjuku-ku Tokyo 169-0072 This cafe is famous for its special apple blossom tea. The beautiful apple blossom shape in the teacup makes people want to take photos and check in 📸.

Scoop Coffee Address: Japan〒169-0072 Tokyo, Shinjuku City, Okubo, 1 Chome−10−15 2nd floor Although the reviews of this cafe are average, if you are nearby and have no other choice, you can come and sit down.
