), a robatayaki restaurant, open daily 5 to 11pm, for grilled foods (see
p. 156 for a review).
Kamon
TEPPANYAKI Kamon, which means “Gate of Celebration,” has an
interior that could be a statement on Tokyo itself—traditionally Japanese yet ever so
high-tech. Located on the 17th floor of the Imperial Hotel, the restaurant offers seating
at one of several large counters (some with views over Hibiya) centered around grills
where expert chefs prepare excellent teppanyaki before your eyes according to your
wishes. Japanese sirloin steaks or filets, cooked to succulent perfection, are available, as
well as seafood ranging from fresh prawns and scallops to crabmeat and fish, and seasonal
vegetables, served with traditional Japanese accompaniments. The service is, of course,
imperial.
On the 17th floor of the Imperial Hotel, 1-1-1 Uchisaiwai-cho.
