Tokyo Ikebukuro | Sukiyaki Hachikian (Hachikian Ikebukuro Tobu Department Store) | Seat Reservation Only

The chef himself carefully selects chicken and duck depending on the dish and the season. You can enjoy the umami that overflows from them to your heart's content. Kamo Sukiya Kamo Namba uses thigh meat instead of loin. Enjoy the high-quality fat and texture that spreads in your mouth.

The soup we serve to all customers is the key to the flavor of Hakkian, and is used in our mizutaki. Chicken soup is mixed with stock carefully extracted from kelp, and the soup is simmered slowly over low heat for a long time until the chicken bones fall apart. The rich yet light flavor seeps into the ingredients when the dish is made into mizutaki, enhancing their flavor to an exceptional degree. The rice porridge served at the end of the meal is a masterpiece that brings out the true value of the soup. The ever-changing flavors of the soup are one of the highlights of our restaurant.

Carefully selected Kujo green onions become sweeter as they absorb the soup, and even when simmered, you can still taste the natural crunch of green onions. Kyoto Sansho pepper has a refreshing aroma and a numbing effect. Black shichimi pepper exquisitely brings out the deliciousness of the food. Our homemade ponzu sauce is made with a luxurious blend of citrus fruits, created through repeated trial and error. It is aged until the sharp edges of the acidity are mellowed and become rounded. Regular ponzu sauce tends to become diluted by the moisture from the ingredients and soup, but our ponzu sauce has the unique feature that once it is poured onto a plate, it will continue to increase in flavor until the very end.

Even outside of the food, we are always thinking about how we can best satisfy our customers, and we put that thought into practice. For example, we use traditional "Nambu ironware" for our pots. Nambu ironware is said to be rich in iron, and it keeps the temperature consistent and doesn't cool down easily, so you can enjoy a consistent hot pot flavor. During meals, our staff will do everything from cooking the hot pot to serving it with care, providing the gentle and detailed hospitality that is unique to Kyoto.
