About Chanko Edosawa

Established in 1974 by a former sumo wrestler, Chanko Edosawa has remained dedicated to the authenticity of chanko nabe, a famous sumo dish. The restaurant prides itself on using the finest ingredients, particularly its distinctive Chicken Soup made from old hens, renowned for their rich flavor. The dishes are complemented by three unique broths: soy sauce, miso, and salt-based soups.

Commitment to Quality

1. Chicken Soup Nabe: Traditionally, sumo wrestlers had a diet primarily composed of fish. However, chicken, revered for its auspicious qualities, became a staple for its superior taste. Our Chicken Soup, derived from carefully selected old hens, forms the heart of our nabe, delivering an unmatched flavor experience.

2. Fresh Ingredients: Each pot of Chanko nabe is brimming with a selection of 12 carefully sourced ingredients, ensuring an enticing and nutritious meal. The medley of vegetables and the potent soup create a distinctive and rich flavor that surpasses standard home cooking.

3. Modern Japanese Aesthetic: The ambiance of Chanko Edosawa boasts a modern twist on traditional Japanese design, featuring a blend of wooden elements and tatami mats. With its elegantly painted sumo-themed artwork, the restaurant is a favorite for both local patrons and international visitors looking to experience Japan's rich culture and cuisine.
