📜 Restaurant Details
Meiji-kan, built during the Meiji era, is a Western-style stone building restaurant located very close to the World Heritage Site, Nikkō Tōshō-gū. Originally, it was a villa constructed by American businessman F.W. Poon, who was one of the first to introduce phonographs to Japan, and it is now registered as a tangible cultural property of Japan. The most popular dish among guests is the signature "Omu Rice" (オムライス). The dish features chicken rice with a rich tomato sauce, a fluffy and smooth omelet, and a demi-glace sauce that takes a considerable amount of time to prepare. The clever combination of ingredients and seasoning showcases the chef's skilled technique. There are also other recommended menu items, including steak-based courses and dishes utilizing local specialties like "yuba" (豆皮).
