Aitei is a basement-level shokudo (casual canteen) in Higashi-Nihonbashi that has been feeding the neighbourhood's office workers for years. The no-frills interior is welcoming and efficient — counter seating and a handful of tables that turn over quickly at lunch. The daily menu rotates around home-style Japanese set meals: grilled fish, simmered pork, braised vegetables, and seasonal specials served with rice, miso soup, and pickles. Dinner is quieter and more relaxed.
