Japanese soul food, bento boxes and Ryokan feasts
On a side street in the town of Sakai, a small restaurant sits emblazoned with welcoming banners full of kanji characters. Inside, two low tables are embedded with long, metal warming trays and seat no more than 20. Across the small space, two chefs chop and stir over a low griddle, pouring out round batters of eggy batter filled with seafood, wagu beef and vegetables in various combinations before spreading sauces on top.
