Jambosohonten

For a hearty lunch, order a yakisoba set meal with an extra-large serving of rice. One diner chose this combination, enjoying the noodles as the main event alongside a generous portion of rice. Another reported that the okonomiyaki set meal came with a substantial pancake, rice and miso soup. It cost 650 yen at the time, and a large serving of rice was free. The menu and prices may vary, but this is a tempting option when you’re after a filling lunch centred on Japanese flour-based dishes.

Some diners favour the pork kimchi set meal for lunch and note that you can order extra rice. It’s an alternative to yakisoba or okonomiyaki. Takoyaki is available with soy sauce or ponzu as well as the usual sauce. One diner liked the light, refreshing ponzu, while others prefer the simpler flavours of plain or salted takoyaki. There’s a choice if you’re not in the mood for sauce, and you could order it alongside okonomiyaki or yakisoba to try a few different flour-based dishes.

Jambosohonten serves diners eating in as well as those taking food away. Set meals make it a place to settle in for lunch; takoyaki and okonomiyaki are options to take away.
