Experience an astonishing crispiness. Enjoy the delicious tempura at Komefuku, served piping hot and freshly fried, boasting an incredible crispiness!
At Komefuku, we are dedicated to providing tempura with the three key elements of being piping hot, freshly fried, and incredibly crispy. The piping hot and freshly fried aspect is achieved through the high performance of our staff, including the manager. As for the remarkable crispiness, it’s embodied by using 100% rice oil for frying. By paying attention to the batter as well, we’ve arrived at Komefuku’s answer of aiming for a tempura that boasts both a crispy texture and lightness, making it enjoyable to eat.
