Tokyo Canteen, which popped up at Eyre Street Market several months ago, is pure evidence of our passion for the flavours of Japan. It’s pumping.
On a sunny afternoon we perched ourselves on one of the communal picnic tables in the centre of the market square to get our fix of Tokyo Canteen’s yum food.
The menu is a blend of Japanese favourites, plus some dishes created with innovative interpretation.
Dean Han, who was with the Chairman Group for years, including groovy Lilo Tang in Barton and Lanterne Rooms when at the Campbell shops, has got a good thing going with Tokyo Canteen. The food is amazing. It’s not expensive. The fitout is cool and contemporary. The location is in the middle of the action.
