[TOKYO] Day 8: SASANOYUKI 11 Course Tofu Tasting & Ueno Park Recipe

Dear Food Diary:

When ChubbyReader Kenneth suggested Sasanoyuki I immediately added it to my Tokyo Eat list. The idea of a tasting made entirely out of tofu variations was intriguing and totally unique. Nothing really similar back in NYC. Though, we did once have Kyotofu, but even then, it was a more of a modern and hip tofu dessert spot.

Sasanoyuki has been making tofu using traditional methods since 1691. It supplies tofu to the Imperial family! If it’s good enough for the royals, it’s definitely good enough for this Chubby.

I enjoyed a 11 course tofu tasting before a nice walk in the finally sunny (been raining these few days) Ueno park.

I arrived at 11:30am on the dot, without a reservation. Table for one…
