# Restaurant Toyoken

The founder had cooked for the Emperor, and opened this place in Beppu in 1926; the family is now in its fourth generation. Tori-ten began here as a menu item: thigh meat sliced thin, seasoned with soy sauce, garlic and sesame oil, then fried. Squeeze kabosu over it, or dip it in vinegared soy sauce with mustard. Lunch cannot be booked, and on busy days the desk stops taking people earlier, so come early. Private rooms, large and small, date from the 1995 move.

- Area: oita
- Type: restaurant
- Time to allow: 1 h (our estimate)
- Hours: 11:00-15:30 (last order 15:00) and 17:00-22:00 (last order 21:00); it shuts between the two. Closed the second Tuesday of every month. On Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, only the honke tori-ten and honke yuzu tori-ten are served between 3 and 5 p.m. When the shop is busy the last order moves earlier: with a 30-minute wait, the desk stops taking people at 2:30 p.m.
