Deden is a generously sized Japanese Izakaya in the San Roku quarter in the heart of Asahikawa City. Expecting the standard Izakaya fare, we were surprised to find an unusually elaborate menu, rich with interesting adaptations of recognized Izakaya dishes.
The beauty of the restaurant is not so much the novel approach to standard fare, though this is major bonus for seasoned Izakaya campaigners, but more so the multitude of choices available from the menu. Sashimi, tempura, grilled fish, yakitori, nabe, soups, and Chinese-influenced dishes are all available in many different varieties. Lovers of the more exotic will be excited to find stewed tripe, sashimi (raw) liver, stewed beef tendon, 50-50 deep fried octopus, venison, or tempura crab.
With the help of Asahikawa Tourism, the Deden menu is soon going to be available in English and Chinese, making Deden a great choice for excellent dining without communication difficulties.
As a last note, for the love of all things tasty,
PLEASE TRY THE ICE-BREAD !!!
