Tamae Tent

As the name suggests, the interior of this quirky Nogata eatery is designed to resemble a tent – albeit a rather spacious and colourfully decorated one. The regulars seem to be fond of the shop's smoked meat and fish, but we recommend the excellent, veg-packed keema curry (¥850) or the spicy taco rice (¥800). Still, if you're only here for a drink or three, the smoked appetisers are well worth a shot, as are wintertime drinks like glühwein and warm sangria.
