Nice to see you and a great welcome to “Sen nari”.
I’m the owner of this restaurant.

Do you know we have a food called “Monja-yaki” in Japan?
Asakusa in Tokyo is the most famous place for “Monja-yaki”.
“Sen nari” is the only place where you can enjoy the taste from Asakusa in Sakuragawa city.
“Monja-yaki” is a kind of Japanese pizza cooked on an iron hot plate, which is eaten with a small spatula called “Hera”. The main ingredients include a batter of flour mixed with water, chopped cabbage, squid and Japanese Worcestershire sauce. “Mentaiko” (marinade fish roe), cheese and pieces of rice cake are sometimes added as toppings.
Originally it was a popular food among children from the Edo period (1603-1867) to the Meiji period (1868-1912) and it is said that it used to be called “Moji(letters)-yaki” because children would write letters with the batter on a hot plate to learn how to write while cooking.
Now, it has been developed as a food which adults can also enjoy with beer and it is forming a part of Japanese food culture.
It is a very tasty food.
You are always welcome to our restaurant, I’m sure we will provide a memorable moment of your stay in Japan.

We are ready to serve you. Thank you
