Tsukishima Monja Street has about 60 restaurants in its monja association, all doing monjayaki, Tokyo's runnier cousin of okonomiyaki, cooked on a hot plate at your table. Very local, a bit chaotic and a lot of fun with a group.

Insider tip

Ask and the staff will cook the first one for you. Mentaiko with mochi is the classic order. Most places open around 11am, so a late lunch avoids the evening queues.
