At Genzaemon in Ichijoji, choose from set meals such as chicken tempura and hamburger steak, or try yak udon. With counter seating and manga to read, this set-meal restaurant also suits a solo lunch.
01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
At Genzaemon, the chicken tempura set meal is a natural choice for a meal with manga to read. One lunchtime visitor recalled that their set came with 5 pieces of chicken tempura, and praised the accompanying sauce. Another diner described the chicken tempura as Oita-style, served with vinegar and soy sauce. Alongside the chicken tempura set meal, the menu includes Set F, which pairs chicken tempura with a Japanese-style hamburger steak. You can make the chicken the focus or enjoy it with another dish.
Other choices include a mixed-fry set meal with chicken, squid and pork, and a yaki udon set meal with a choice of sauce or soy sauce. Diners have remarked on the wide range of set meals and generous portions. For a substantial meal, the grilled offal or ginger pork set meals are also options.
The restaurant has counter seating only; one visitor reported around 12 seats. Some diners have enjoyed a leisurely meal while reading manga from the walls and shelves, and one recalled ordering coffee afterwards. It is also suited to eating alone, and is open for both lunch and dinner. Genzaemon is a place in Ichijoji to settle in for a set meal and some manga.
