Guidebook for Shinjuku-ku
Food Scene
Ogasawara-Hakushaku-Tei was built in 1927 as the grand town residence of the 30th head of the Ogasawara clan. It was built to a Spanish design, with a patio and Moorish-inspired cigar room. Its importance as a unique part of Japan’s cultural heritage has been noted. Today the building is run as a Spanish restaurant, with fresh Japanese ingredients being used in the course menus, and delicate, bite-size Pinchos-style finger food being a popular option for parties and events. The restaurant has been awarded a Michelin star for two years running in the 2008 and 2009 Michelin Guides.

Ganko (Yamano Aiko-tei) |
がんこ 山野愛子邸 |
Aiko Yamano is known as the pioneer of the Japanese beauty industry. The house she lived in was opened as “Ganko Shinjuku Yamano Aiko-tei” in 2014 as the first “yashiki” (mansion) style restaurant in Tokyo.
It’s traditional ryokan exterior and peaceful ambience is the perfect retreat from all the hustle and bustle that makes up Shinjuku. Each dining room features traditional tatami flooring, so diners are required to take off their shoes and store in lockers at the entryway. The rooms also all have window panels, allowing for the garden’s beauty outside to be appreciated. The female staffs wear kimonos and their service is both prompt and graceful. The overall atmosphere is reminiscent of Kyoto, the old capital of Japan.
