About this place
Break into soft, fluffy egg and discover omurice beneath, finished with demi-glace sauce. At Tapas Bar Choto-tei, classic Western-style dishes come with a choice of sauces and combinations. The menu lists fluffy demi-glace omurice made with Oku-Kuji eggs at 1,580 yen. One diner enjoyed the contrast of tender egg, chicken rice with a noticeable presence of onion, and demi-glace sauce. For those who prefer ketchup, there is also rolled omelette omurice with Oku-Kuji eggs. Another diner ordered demi-glace omurice and pork steak à la carte for dinner, so you can make one dish the centrepiece or pair it with a meat main.
Lunch sets are also available, pairing hamburg steak, pork steak or omurice with salad, soup and rice. Choose miso soup or corn soup, and swap the rice for bread. For hamburg steak, options include a fried egg or cheese sauce. Some set meals also include crab cream croquette, an appealing choice if you fancy another Western-style favourite on the side. A diner who had the fried-egg hamburg steak set enjoyed spooning the demi-glace sauce and egg over the rice. You can savour the steak and rice separately, or change up the combination with each bite.
For a more leisurely meal, start with appetisers. One dinner account describes ordering a platter of 5 appetisers and chicken liver pâté with baguette, followed by hamburg steak or omurice. The appetiser platter is listed at 990 yen per person, making it an option when you want something to nibble on first. Sangen pork steak is available both in a lunch set and as a dinner main. One lunch diner praised the meat's satisfying yet tender texture and the sweet-and-savoury sauce, which went well with rice. When you want a hearty meal, make a meat dish the star instead of omurice.
For dessert, choices include Basque cheesecake, crème brûlée, and chocolate gâteau with vanilla ice cream. Add coffee or tea, whether you're sitting down for a meal from appetisers through to dessert or simply choosing a favourite Western-style dish for lunch. The restaurant has a quiet atmosphere and is suited to dining alone. The menu lets you put together a meal to your liking, whether you choose one carefully considered dish at lunchtime or pair appetisers with wine in the evening.
