Upon being seated, diners at Kudan—a favorite among sake aficionados—select a sake cup from a colorful selection of options presented in a basket. Oden, a staple winter hotpot of fish cakes and vegetables, is an ideal partner—and Kudan’s specialty—but you will also find excellent seasonal sashimi, vegetable dishes and more. In Tokyo, oden is often made with a strong-flavored broth, but owner Kawabe-san makes his in the lighter Kansai style, which is much harder to find and worth a trip alone. (Kudan件: 目黒区鷹番3-7-4 関口ビル)
