Bongo Itabashi

looking for a taste of typical japanese mom-​made breakfasts?
look no further,
just report here by 11am–
even better if you arrive a little earlier (especially on weekends)
they have a special set on weekends:
you get a bottomless bowl of miso soup chockful of tofu and seaweed, a hard boiled egg, pickles and 2 huge onigiri of your choice. tea, of course, is free flow. and is good!
extensive selection of onigiri, amongst them the classic tuna mayo, etc
one setback is that the menu’s only in japanese but dont fret, ive gotten most of them translated (on my own, pics up soon)
do try the more exotic flavors such as uni kurage (urchin) and stewed tuna cubes.
atmosphere is pretty chill, albeit the typical japanese eat-​and-​go style. a little pressure too, as a queue forms… sometimes inside the little shop, right behind you as you eat.
really filling and satisfying, a great way to start your tokyo morning.
