After a long walk around Art Salon Wasabi, come to this restaurant and have a rest here. Japanese cuisine can be tried here. Cooks at Edokko do their best to provide visitors with good pork soup, pork and miso soup. Great coffee is worth a try here.
The pleasant staff meets you at this place all year round. The cool service is something these restaurateurs care about. Fair prices are to be expected at this spot. From the guests' point of view, the atmosphere is peaceful. This restaurant is ranked 4 within the Google grading system.

In Daikancho, Higashi Ward, Nagoya City, in the middle of a fashionable town with stylish restaurants and state-of-the-art apartments, there is ``Edokko,'' a popular restaurant full of Showa taste that stands dignified like a historic building. The fact that the restaurant has a long history can be seen at a glance from the exterior. When you open the rattling door and step inside, you are welcomed by the owner's cheerful voice of "Welcome!" and the aroma of the food. In this famous place. This is a set meal restaurant that has been open for over half a century. When I asked why they called it ``Edokko,'' they said they didn't know the details, but the store itself was started by the proprietress' mother-in-law. ``My mother-in-law is from Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, and when she used to run a sushi restaurant in Niigata Prefecture, the business name was ``Edokko,'' so I heard that she continued to use that name when she came to Nagoya... ''The origin of the store's name is not clear.My mother-in-law started the store, and now I basically run it by myself. It is not clear when the store was opened, but it seems that it started around the time after the Isewan Typhoon.The store has not been renovated at all and has always looked like this.The Isewan Typhoon started in 1959 ( It was established in 1955, so there is no doubt that it has a history of nearly 60 years.It was founded by her mother-in-law, and her son, the current owner, started helping out at the store, and eventually the landlady who married her also started helping out. This is the story of this store.Currently, the owner is not feeling well, so the proprietress is running the store alone, and her daughter, who married nearby, helps out a few days a week. We mainly offer daily set meals (bento) that you can choose according to your preference. The contents are generally the same as the set meal, only the way it is presented is in the form of a bento box. The lunch menu lists ``daily bento'' or ``various set meals,'' and prices start from 800 yen.Set meals include ``grilled fish set,'' ``boiled fish set,'' and ``vegetable set.''For example, a fish set. The type of fish and how it is prepared changes daily, and the proprietress thinks about it every day, prepares it, and arranges it on the counter.Customers look at the counter and say, ``I'd like this set meal,'' and choose their main dish, followed by side dishes, pickles, and other dishes. A set meal is completed with miso soup and rice.Deli dishes are also available at the counter, but it is basically left to you.Please note that if there is something you can't eat, they will exchange it for another item. It's an easy-to-order style. There are several types of main dishes and side dishes on the counter, and when ordering, you choose your main dish from among these.On this day, I chose mackerel boiled in miso as the main dish, meat and potatoes, and spaghetti salad as a side dish. Fish dishes are said to be preferred by many elderly regulars, but they also have meat main dishes.Although there are no mentions of meat dishes on the menu posted on the wall of the restaurant, the ones that often appear at the counter are Apparently it's fried chicken or pork cutlet. For the miso soup that comes with set meals and bento boxes, you can choose between white miso pork soup or red miso soup. A rare feature in Nagoya restaurants is the choice of miso soup. Even though red miso is overwhelmingly popular in the region, here you can choose between red miso soup and white miso pork soup for the miso soup that comes with the set meal. My mother-in-law is from the Kanto region, so for people who don't like red miso, they also have white miso pork soup that they have always had. Nagoya's pork soup usually has a lot of ingredients, but the pork soup here is made with pork, Apparently, it's a simple dish that just contains tofu and carrots. Most of the shop's customers are probably people from Nagoya who enjoy red miso on a daily basis, but white miso is also surprisingly popular. Self-service coffee and sweets placed in front of the coffee maker are also free. There are also sweets placed casually nearby, which are also free of charge.Once you're full from your meal, you can just relax with coffee and sweets, which is the style of Edokko Shokudo. Edokko Shokudo is said to be unique in that it opens for breakfast early in the morning and doesn't close until night.The proprietress is the only one who keeps the restaurant open from morning until night. ``I prepare for lunch in the morning, so I can relax during the time in between,'' she said with a cheerful smile. The food prepared by the proprietress can best be described as ``mother's taste.'' There's nothing out of the ordinary, and the standard menu changes daily, so you won't get bored even if you come every day. The rustic appearance of the restaurant, the well-used chairs and tables, the old beckoning cat, and other features give the restaurant a homely feel that makes you feel at home.The restaurant's unpretentious atmosphere and home-cooked flavors are appealing. I want to continue enjoying this taste and atmosphere for as long as possible.
