-----------------------------------------

Today, I would like to introduce Tenyoshiya, a very popular tempura restaurant located on the 2nd basement floor of the Nomura Building in Nishi-Shinjuku, which has been in business for 14 years and has won the Gold Prize for 12 consecutive years!

This is "Tenyoshiya"

Despite the great popularity, this time, it will be closed as of the end of June

When I asked the store, it was closed by the judgment of the headquarters, and there was no plan to move, and "Tenyoshiya" will disappear from Japan...

Hey, hey, hey! 😳

Closed!? Wait a minute!

Although it is a tempura bowl with a pretty good price of 1800 yen, the content is not strange even if it takes 3500 yen.

You don't have to do this!

I have to go eat! 😱😱😱

So, here we come!

When I heard the closing at the end of June, I thought the same thing.

It's Saturday, but... there's a long line lol

But if you miss this, you can't eat anymore!

If so, long lines aren't a pain lol

People from various countries are also lined up in the line

You can see that it was also popular internationally

Enter the store and be guided to the counter

First, a long line to moisturize my dry throat

I'll have a cup of cold tea.

Finished the order and made it like a spirit unification

I'll wait carefully lol

the sound of frying tempura

the crackling sound of being fried

Expectations are rising lol

Finally served Tenkichi bowl!!

First impression! Big!! 😳

I think the bowl is also a little big

As if towering from that bowl

Lots of tempura!!

Compared to Tendon of a certain Tendon chain

I think it's almost twice as much!?

Sheng of

The first thing that stands out is shrimp tempura!

There are four shrimp tempura, but

Two are fried together, and two are two and four

De, big... 😳 The fact that two shrimp, which are large enough for even one, are put together further emphasizes the size...

There is also a large shrimp tempura menu...

I wonder what will happen... lol

Have them evacuate to the tray once

Next is tempura of cod!

This is also big! And the body is thick!!

When lifted with chopsticks, it is heavy!

It seems to be edible!!

This is also temporarily evacuated

And the biggest tempura!

Enoki mushroom tempura!! It's nicely opened and fried

His appearance is like a peacock 😳

The biggest but cheapest food?

Nice lol

Tempura is still on the bowl

Pumpkin tempura, squid tempura, egg tempura and seaweed tempura

Since I evacuated the big game, I finally

I wonder if I can go eat lol

Serve the pot pickles on the table on the edge of the bowl

Ready to go hungry Max!

Well, let's start with squid heaven!

The moment you bite, huh?

Squid tempura... I thought it had a firm bite... what? It's really soft!??

It's not plump, it's squid with a fluffy texture!

Wow 😳 there is such a squid heaven ♪

How about enoki mushrooms?... Crispy ♪

Ohhh ~ ♪ Light! Really light!

I can taste it crispy lol

Now... from here...

Those who can paste the main among tempura

First, from Madara...

How big... It's heavy...

Speaking of cod, it is often eaten in a pot

It's plump and delicious, but...

It's much bigger than the fillets used in the pot 😳

Well... One bite!

What?... Ehhhhh!?

From the moment you put it in your mouth...

It melted away...

What is this!?

Will it melt away like this silky!?

It was so big... it was gone in an instant 😂😂😂

It's worth coming to eat just this Shindara tempura... Oh, but it's already closed... 😭

Next is the main final weapon! Shrimp heaven!!

Shrimp tempura fried together!!

Go without hesitation! If you go, you'll understand!

One! Two! Three! Bakut ♪

Foooooooooo!!

What a luxury 🤤

Shrimp tempura is delicious after all ~ ♪

All with this momentum

I feel like I'm going to eat it up lol

but if it's a bowl, you won't be able to replace rice

We have to manage this place carefully 🤩

Divide the egg tempura on the rice, sprinkle the sauce on the rice bowl, and go to the egg tempura bowl!

Anyway, two big shrimp tempura

it's all left 🤣

Eat egg tendon with seaweed tempura and attack shrimp two tempura while eating egg tendon...

Oh no... It's so delicious 😆😆😆

The rice with egg yolk and rice bowl sauce is too delicious! And I don't know which side dish is better, shrimp tempura 🤣🤣🤣

Big guy, put away the two shrimp tempura There are only a few left...

Put a little tsukemono in the bowl

Scrape the last yolk sauce rice!!

The richness of the yolk and the sweetness of the sauce

Crispy crunchy and salty pot pickles decorate the finale

Perfect... Finished... 🤤

However, I was preparing for further pursuit... lol

It's pumpkin tempura for dessert!!

Slightly sweet pumpkin ♪

Tighten with this guy!!

I ate it! Very satisfied 🤩

There was a good amount of rice

Above all, the amount and variety of tempura are abundant

It was the best treat 🥰

Anyway, it's closed...

Tempura shops that can be eaten for 1000 yen

It's quite limited...

I can only think of "Makino" in the Mitsui Building, "Dandanya" in the Yodobashi area, and "Tenshu" in the Nishi-Shinjuku Cemetery area...

Next time, let's go to Tenshu gradually lol

Hello again ♪

6/20 Edited to

... Read more「天吉屋 閉店」で検索している人が一番知りたいのって、やっぱり“いつまで営業してるの?”と“閉店理由は何?”だと思います。私もまさにそれが気になって、現地で食べつつお店の方に確認しました。 まず閉店時期については、店内での案内どおり「6月末日をもって閉店」とのこと。私が行った日は土曜日で、閉店情報が広まっている影響か、開店前後から列ができていました。ランチは11:00〜14:30(L.O.14:00)、ディナーは17:30〜21:00(L.O.20:30)表記があり、日曜は定休日。行列前提で、時間に余裕を持って行くのが安心です。 次にいちばん気になる閉店理由ですが、私が伺った範囲では「本部の判断による閉店」で、さらに「移転の予定はなく、日本から“天吉屋”はなくなる」との説明でした。人手不足や家賃、契約満了など色々想像してしまいますが、少なくとも現場では“移転して再開します”のような話は聞けませんでした。だからこそ、食べ納めを考えている人は早めの来店が良いと思います。 「閉店前に行くなら何を頼む?」という点では、私のおすすめは看板の天吉丼(1800円)。海老が2尾まとめ揚げで実質4本ぶんの迫力があり、真ダラやえのき茸の天ぷらもサイズ感が規格外。特に真ダラは、ふわっとほどける感じが印象に残りました。量が多いので、丼からはみ出す天ぷらは一度取り皿に避難させて食べ進めると食べやすいです。 支払いは現金だけじゃなく、カード(VISA/Master/JCB/AMEX/Diners)や交通系IC、iD/QUICPay、PayPayなどQR決済まで対応していて便利でした。 最後に、閉店間際は品切れや早仕舞いの可能性もゼロではないので、確実に食べたいならランチの早い時間帯を狙うのがおすすめ。西新宿 野村ビル地下2階という立地なので、迷わないようにフロア案内も事前に見ておくとスムーズです。
