If you’re in the area visiting Odaiba and are wanting to grab some food there are plenty of options in the area. Specifically within Diver City Plaza. There’s a large food court on the bottom floor and then several restaurants on other floors of the massive mall.

Torimkura

Torimkura is one of the restaurants located in Diver City. It caught my attention since it specializes in Oyako-Don. What exactly is Oyako-Don? It’s a simple Japanese dish that includes tender pieces of chicken, egg, and rice. The sauce that coats everything is generally both salty and sweet. It’s a real comfort food in Japan and is very popular.

The Oyako-Don

There wasn’t much of a decision on what to get here. They had a lot of options outside of Oyako-Don but this was definitely a restaurant known for its Oyako-Don, so I had to go with that!

The first thing that really jumps out once the dish is served is the bright orange egg yolk. How they serve this without breaking the yolk I have no idea.

Without a doubt the egg and chicken mixture is scrambled well and really is a nice mixture. It covers a warm bed of rice.

Breaking the egg yolk and mixing it into the rice, egg, and chicken, really added a rich and creamy element to the overall bowl. It adds a different flavor in addition to the mildly sweet and savory sauce that coats the egg, chicken, and rice.

The pieces of chicken were quite tender and flavorful. It was good. I only wish there had been more. I was certainly left craving more chicken.

Is It Worth A Visit?

Oyako-Don can be found throughout Tokyo. With Odaiba being a bit of a trek from Central Tokyo I wouldn’t make a trip specifically to Diver City to eat here. If you find yourself out in the Odaiba area sight seeing and needing a bite to eat, than sure, it’s worth a stop. But there will be a lot of other options to choose from as well. Overall it’s a solid bowl of Oyako-Don but isn’t something I’d go out of my way to get again.
