Enjoy delicious, jiggly omurice at this retro cafe restaurant in Higashi-Ginza, Tokyo: YOU

YOU is a retro cafe restaurant located in Higashi-Ginza, Tokyo. People will line up at this popular restaurant for their most well-known dish, Omurice. Magazines and other media say their delicious Omurice is something “you have to eat at least once”. So, why not visit Ginza and try it?

YOU has been around for over 50 years. They are well-established as an Omurice spot and often appear in magazines and on television. Of course, the locals love them, but the tourists do, too. It gets crowded at lunchtime, so make sure you come with time to spare. The interior is very retro, and you can feel the history of the establishment. But, it also feels casual enough to go by yourself. At YOU, they don’t cook the Omurice to be firm all the way through, and the fluffy omelet on top is one thing that sets them apart. The Omurice also looks beautiful, so you’ll definitely want to snap a picture. But, the fun doesn’t end there. Once you stick your knife into the fluffy, jiggly omelet, delicious egg will flow out. Enjoy the harmony of the egg and the rice with ketchup.

The omelet contains heavy cream and salted margarine, so it’s rich and creamy all at once. It’s so good, you’ll be hooked from the first bite. The flavors of the rice with ketchup pair well with the egg. You’ll be eating your last bite before you know it. Come and taste the history of Ginza here.
