ヨリドコロ 由比ヶ浜大通り店 — Restaurant in Kamakura

I heard about the sister store on SNS, but opted to visit this store as it was a short walk from where I was staying. The store seems to be a renovated traditional Japanese house. The exposed wood and natural, neutral colours give the store a relaxing and comfortable vibe.

The kodawari tamago (seperated egg where you whip the whites) is the main "gimmick" of the store, and there are some instructions provided in both Japanese and English. You separate and whip the egg yourself, a small whisk is provided and you do it by placing the stem between your palms and rubbing them back and forth. I'd add that when whipping the egg whites to do it on a slight angle so you can airate them easier.

I opted for the hokke teishoku set with an iced yuzu tea. All the food and drink was very delicious. The soup was loaded with small chunks of veggies and tofu. If you like fish and traditional Japanese food, definitely try this place.

The staff are friendly and had a chat with me as I paid, despite my rusty Japanese.

I really like teishoku breakfasts/lunch as they are extremely filling, however don't leave you feeling bloated like a lot of western breakfasts do. Great before a day of a lots of walking...

I think this is my very favorite food while i travel in Japan. The fish is so good and fresh.

Definitely will go back here if i go to Japan, especially Kamakura.

But i think i will try another menu, the one with small fish and raw egg, i’m sure that one is also good.

Oh, and the place is lovely because when we went there it was...

This is the same shop like the famous shop in Inamuragasaki train crossing. As it’s mostly very crowded there I usually come here. Excellent fish and Teishoku with a little bit of a challenge: Whip your own egg whites as a topping for your Gohan (rice)! I love it here, always come back when I am...
