Order a bowl of the Japanese comfort food, Oden, at Hakkei.
From the restaurant's website:
"You can enjoy rice cooked in a traditional ceramic kamado (rice cooked in this fashion also has a crispy layer called okoge), homemade tsukemono (authentic Japanese pickled vegetables), miso soup with various ingredients that change daily, nimono (simmered vegetables), and our feature dish, Oden."
Beer available. BYOB. Serving lunch and dinner Tue-Sun. Closed Mon.
"It's a charming micro-restaurant, deliberately rustic, tucked into the bottom floor of a hard-to-find Young Street office building. The best part is walking in: The aroma of dashi seems to permeate every corner of the room. The very air seems nutritious. Before you order, the waitress leads you to a double bowl, made of hammered metal in the shape of a figure eight. It's chock full of things to put in your oden-about 20 items, from which you are allowed to choose three."
