Food We Ate : Tempura Feast At Tenya

Another affordable (read:cheap) place we found in Japan in Tenya. Tenya is a chain specialising in tempura and no worries about what they serve here because the tempuras are of fish, prawns and vegetables. Though, do note that the miso soup have chicken extract in it, the last time I checked; so some of the readers here might want to avoid drinking the soup.
One can't miss the bright and cheery sign of a Tenya outlet. Even if you can't  read the sign in Japanese, just take note of the blue and yellow stripes. ^-^

Tenya's menu conveniently has a variety of set meals and from the pictures, you can usually tell what's included and the set meals there are very, very good value for money.  You get  piping hot tempura served and drink free mugi-cha too. What more can you want? The outlet we visited in Asakusa has English menu (just ask for one) so ordering is easy at Tenya. Plenty of foreigners visited Tenya so I guess the staff there are pretty used to serving us "clueless" foreigners.
What Zaini and I had in Tenya. 

We didn't go to Tenya all that much, preferring Yayoi-ken but we made a visit there the last time we were in Japan to let my friend; who was tagging along with us try out the food here.
Raimie was anticipating his dinner. He was famished but he didn't want to eat rice so we ordered for him:
an udon set. He's a big boy now so he finished this on his own.
Everyone's ready to eat dinner! Raimie is pretty good at slurping his noodles and also using chopsticks. Oh my! I'm getting hungry just looking at his photo slurping all those udon! LOL
