Tempura Yaguchi
Tempura Japanese
A calligraphy scroll on the wall, a gift from the chef's mentor, reads "Menkyo Kaiden," meaning full mastery of the craft, and the apprentices frying below it seem to feel the weight. This Michelin-starred tempura counter in Ningyocho fries at a heat high enough to pull moisture from the coating, turning each piece fragrant and light. Shrimp come in two successive pieces, fried at different temperatures to show what a single ingredient can do at rare versus medium.
